McDonald's Built a 515-Page Dossier on Me. It Says I'll Never Stop Eating There I requested a copy of my data from McDonald's loyalty program and received an extensive, personalized report that algorithmically predicts my next purchase.

McDonald's boss on abuse claims: 'I don't want to talk about the past' The boss of McDonald's UK and Ireland has said she doesn't want to talk about the past when asked about allegations of abuse at the fast-food chain. Lauren Schultz told the BBC what had happened in recent years was unacceptable but said we have drawn a line under it.

Within days of being released from his seventh prison term for romance fraud, Raymond McDonald was back on a dating app looking for his next victim. Over more than 20 years he had racked up 58 convictions, mostly for fraud and theft, while telling lies on an industrial scale and taking thousands of pounds from women for holidays and weddings which were never going to happen. This time when he went looking, the BBC was waiting. He thought he was having a date with Kaye, but instead found himself being approached by a BBC reporter and camera crew. He had met Kaye online and, calling himself Rob, told her he was a deep-sea diver looking for a wife.

We limit the target languages for this augmentation process to Arabic, Finnish, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Hebrew, Thai,Danish,French,Italian,Dutch,Polish,andPortuguese. Interestingly,justaddingthislanguage code effectively changes the outputs as shown in Table 7. We further subsample 50% of the synthetically generated questions. During inference, we first retrieve top 15 passages using mDPR, and then feed the questions andconcatenated passages intothemGEN model, withlanguage tags. The gray dots concentrated in the lower right part in the first figure represent encoded Thai embeddings.
