Gavin Newsom pushes back on Trump AI executive order preempting state laws
California governor Gavin Newsom speaks during an election night press conference in Sacramento, California, on 4 November. California governor Gavin Newsom speaks during an election night press conference in Sacramento, California, on 4 November. California governor says order pushes'grift and corruption' instead of innovation just hours after president's dictum The ink was barely dry on Donald Trump's artificial intelligence executive order when Gavin Newsom came out swinging. Just hours after the order went public Thursday evening, the California governor issued a statement saying the presidential dictum, which seeks to block states from regulating AI of their own accord, advances "grift and corruption" instead of innovation. "President Trump and David Sacks aren't making policy - they're running a con," Newsom said, referencing Trump's AI adviser and crypto "czar" .
LargeST: A Benchmark Dataset for Large-Scale Traffic Forecasting
However, the promising results achieved on current public datasets may not be applicable to practical scenarios due to limitations within these datasets. First, the limited sizes of them may not reflect the real-world scale of traffic networks. Second, the temporal coverage of these datasets is typically short, posing hurdles in studying long-term patterns and acquiring sufficient samples for training deep models.
Meta AI adviser spreads disinformation about shootings, vaccines and trans people
Robby Starbuck speaks in an interview in New York in March. Robby Starbuck speaks in an interview in New York in March. Critics condemn Robby Starbuck, appointed in lawsuit settlement, for'peddling lies and pushing extremism' A prominent anti-DEI campaigner appointed by Meta in August as an adviser on AI bias has spent the weeks since his appointment spreading disinformation about shootings, transgender people, vaccines, crime, and protests. Robby Starbuck, 36, of Nashville, was appointed in August as an adviser by Meta - owner of Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and other tech platforms - in an August lawsuit settlement. Since his appointment, Starbuck has baselessly claimed that individual shooters in the US were motivated by leftist ideology, described faith-based protest groups as communists, and without evidence tied Democratic lawmakers to murders.
The AI Takeover of Education Is Just Getting Started
Rising seniors are the last class of students who remember high school before ChatGPT. But only just barely: OpenAI's chatbot was released months into their freshman year. Ever since then, writing essays hasn't required, well, writing. By the time these students graduate next spring, they will have completed almost four full years of AI high school. Gone already are the days when using AI to write an essay meant copying and pasting its response verbatim.
STEVE HILTON: Why I'm launching a legal war against California Democrats' unconstitutional power grab
California gubernatorial candidate Steve Hilton on former Vice President Kamala Harris declining to run for the California governorship and Gov. Gavin Newsom's idea to redraw California's map if Texas redistricts. California Democrats are once again trying to rig the system, overturn elections and steal congressional seats from Republicans. Gov. Gavin Newsom and Attorney General Rob Bonta are planning to redraw California's congressional maps in 2025 or 2026, halfway through the decade and years before the next census. It's a blatant, unconstitutional power grab designed to silence millions of voters and cement one-party rule in California. Democrats are already trying to rewrite the history of this redistricting fight, claiming it's just retaliation for Republican maps in Texas.
VN-MTEB: Vietnamese Massive Text Embedding Benchmark
Pham, Loc, Luu, Tung, Vo, Thu, Nguyen, Minh, Hoang, Viet
Vietnam ranks among the top countries in terms of both internet traffic and online toxicity. As a result, implementing embedding models for recommendation and content control duties in applications is crucial. However, a lack of large-scale test datasets, both in volume and task diversity, makes it tricky for scientists to effectively evaluate AI models before deploying them in real-world, large-scale projects. To solve this important problem, we introduce a Vietnamese benchmark, VN-MTEB for embedding models, which we created by translating a large number of English samples from the Massive Text Embedding Benchmark using our new automated framework. We leverage the strengths of large language models (LLMs) and cutting-edge embedding models to conduct translation and filtering processes to retain high-quality samples, guaranteeing a natural flow of language and semantic fidelity while preserving named entity recognition (NER) and code snippets. Our comprehensive benchmark consists of 41 datasets from six tasks specifically designed for Vietnamese text embeddings. In our analysis, we find that bigger and more complex models using Rotary Positional Embedding outperform those using Absolute Positional Embedding in embedding tasks.
