iruoyon EU approves controversial Dutch farm buy-out plan to meet climate goals

The Netherlands is the second largest food exporter in the world. And we are a small nation.

Farms account for over half of all nitrogen emissions though. We need to make some sacrifes. Just like we did in all other sectors already.

At the moment highway speeds have been lowered nationwide, building permits can't be given out and more. This is crippling a lot of sectors right now.

iruoyon Stanford just released a 386-page report on the state of AI

This is what Kagi's Universal Summarizer[0] generates[1]:

The Artificial Intelligence Index Report 2023 provides insights into the current state of AI research, development, and adoption. Key findings and implications from the report include:

1. Research and Development: The United States and China lead in cross-country collaborations in AI publications, with the number of collaborations increasing four times since 2010. China has also overtaken the European Union and the United Kingdom in AI conference publications, producing 26.2% of the world's share in 2021.

2. Technical Performance: AI models have become more advanced, with the release of text-to-image models like DALL-E 2 and Stable Diffusion, text-to-video systems like Make-A-Video, and chatbots like ChatGPT. AI systems are increasing in complexity due to advancements in hardware, data availability, and larger model sizes.

3. Technical AI Ethics: In 2022, new ethics benchmarks and diagnostic metrics were introduced to address concerns about AI fairness, bias, and transparency. However, challenges remain in steering AI models to avoid harmful outcomes.

4. The Economy: AI hiring has grown in various countries, with Hong Kong experiencing the highest growth in 2022. Private investment in AI decreased for the first time in a decade, but AI remains a topic of interest for policymakers and industry leaders.

5. Education: The United States leads in AI-related postsecondary education, with a significant number of AI courses and programs offered at universities.

6. Policy and Governance: AI-related policymaking has increased, with the United States, Spain, and the Philippines leading in AI-related laws. Legal cases involving AI highlight the challenges and complexities of AI in the courts.

7. Public Perception: Men are more likely than women to report that AI products and services make their lives easier and trust companies that use AI. Surveyed Americans are most excited about AI's potential to make life and society better (31%) and save time and increase efficiency (13%).

8. AI Skills: The top AI skills include machine learning, natural language processing, data structures, computer vision, image processing, deep learning, TensorFlow, Pandas (software), and OpenCV.

iruoyon DNS0: The European public DNS that makes your internet safer

This is founded by co-founders of NextDNS. But why? How is it different?

iruoyon ASML Q4 2022 financial results

I wouldn't call ASML's products complimentary. They are the only machines capable of EUV lithography. Without EUV, nodes smaller than 7nm wouldn't be possible. But even before EUV they were the leading manufacturer of lithography machines. They deliver to all the big players like TSMC, Samsung and Intel.

They are so important/valuable that the US government is negotiating with the Dutch government to ban ASML from selling EUV machines to China.
