@cnrsecologie.bsky.social regrette profondément l'adoption de cette loi à la vision court-termiste & ses conséquences graves sur l’environnement, qui méprise santé & bien-être de la population & le rôle des espèces sauvages dans la prod. agricole. La communauté scientifique n'a pas été entendue.
Le Parlement a définitivement adopté mardi la proposition de loi agricole Duplomb-Menonville, comprenant entre autres une mesure décriée de réintroduction sous conditions d'un pesticide néonicotinoïde, et présentée comme une réponse à la colère agricole de 2024.

French researcher, going to a conference in Houston, was forbidden entry to US; his work and personal electronics were both confiscated.

Why? Because a “random search” of his cell phone revealed a negative personal opinion on Trump and the Trump administration. www.lemonde.fr/internationa...
Etats-Unis : un chercheur français refoulé pour avoir exprimé « une opinion personnelle sur la politique menée par l’administration Trump »
Le ministre de la recherche a dit sa « préoccupation », mercredi, après cette décision des autorités américaines. Le chercheur du CNRS aurait subi un contrôle aléatoire à son arrivée, avant que son or...

Obsessed with the work coming out of Finale Doshi-Velez's group; they don't just take the limits of the real world for ML deployment seriously but instead turn it into new algorithmic ideas

Towards Integrating Personal Knowledge into Test-Time Predictions
Machine learning (ML) models can make decisions based on large amounts of data, but they can be missing personal knowledge available to human users about whom predictions are made. For example, a mode...
