#Palantir contractors working for #NHS to receive ‘unlimited #access’ to #patient #data

“That means that Palantir #software can only be used to process data precisely in line with the instruction of the #customer. Using the data for anything else would not only be illegal but technically impossible due to granular access controls overseen by the NHS.”

Good insight into which jobs can be safely automated.

A team of researchers from the Ecole Polytechnique Federale of Lausanne (Switzerland) proved that data centers are a scam.

With their software, an IA the size of ChatGPT can work with just a local network of FOUR computers (total price €9,600 / $11,280).

A bus crashed into a shop in London. Two people were reportedly hurt, but obviously the incident could have been worse. An X user named Mark Arby took close photos of the crash, and companies then relentlessly kept asking him for permission to use the photos. A lot of other netizens also wanted to make sure if he was ok.
