]]>“This change does not impact posts from accounts people choose to follow; it impacts what the system recommends, and people can control if they want more,” said Dani Lever, a Meta spokesperson.
In Germany, Great Britain and France, the function was removed already last year. The news section, added in 2019, included the presentation of events by national and international media.
Meta says users will be able to open links to news articles. The media will again be able to publish their links to articles and to their websites.
Leading drivers for the new change to the platform are criticisms leveled at Meta that the company is not doing a good enough job of eliminating misinformation, and that it is contributing to political polarization.
Therefore, Meta has come out with the decision that they have to reduce the political content on their platforms.
“This announcement expands on years of work on how we approach and treat political content based on what people have told us they wanted”, added Dani Lever.
Meta said that restricting access to the News tab will not disrupt the review and verification of content on the disinformation platform.
]]>A group of technology companies, including Intel, Google, Arm, Qualcomm and Samsung, created the Unified Accelerator Fund (UXL) alliance, through which they will work together to remove the advantages that NVIDIA has as a dominant player in the artificial intelligence market, reports The Verge.
The alliance will undertake the mission of developing an open-source software package that will allow AI professionals to break away from NVIDIA’s technology. Additionally, the code that developers create will be able to function on any machine with any chip.
The Unified Acceleration Foundation is still in the design phase, but is expected to begin operations by the beginning of the second half of the year. UXL currently supports the OneAPI open standard. It was created by the Intel company.
Members of the alliance believe that it will remove restrictions on developers using specific programming languages, code sets and any other tools intended to bind developers to the use of certain architectures. For example – NVIDIA’s CUDA platform, which strives for this.
After focusing entirely on making chips for AI models like the H100, the company reached $2 trillion in market capitalization last month. This secured NVIDIA’s top spot among chip makers. The company is also planning to release new AI models soon – H200 GPU.
The chips that NVIDIA manufactures require developers to use the CUDA architecture, which supersedes all other chip manufacturers’ architectures by leaps and bounds. Jensen Huang, CEO of NVIDIA, also shared that 4 million developers use CUDA.
However, technology companies are not giving up and continue to try to create alternative architectures of their own to displace the dominant one in the market.
For now, the creators of UXL intend to support NVIDIA hardware and code. Initially, the project will aim to develop options for AI applications.
The group of tech companies that make up the alliance is looking to collaborate with other powerhouses like Microsoft and Amazon to make sure the solutions they provide can be built into any chip or hardware.

]]>The first update is the ability to extract information from large amounts of data. For example, it can analyze unstructured data, such as customer feedback, and summarize the most important points.
“If you aggregate thousands of transcripts of customer calls, you can ask Airtable AI to categorize each call according to sentiment (positive, negative, or neutral) and group the data accordingly”, Airtable wrote in a blog post.
The ability to automatically apply categories or tags to data is among the other new features. This helps teams keep their data better organized. Categories can be based on topics, product features, etc.
Users can also create content based on their data, such as generating emails for sales teams or draft campaign assets for marketing teams. This is done using message, product and audience information that has been stored in Airtable.
Other notable features include the ability to automatically translate content into multiple languages.
“Organizations have enormous potential to transform the way they work with AI,” said Howie Liu, co-founder and CEO of Airtable.
He further adds that with the new features, Airtable AI offers a fast way to introduce AI into data and workflows and “unlocks the possibilities of AI for small and large customers.
New features in the platform also include capabilities to improve data routing so it gets into the hands of the right team. This will save managers time spent in determining which teams data requests should go to.
]]>U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer ruled that Musk’s lawsuit was retaliatory in nature.
X issued a statement indicating its intention to appeal the decision.
Imran Ahmed, CEO of CCDH, welcomed the judge’s decision as an affirmation of his organization’s efforts to hold social media companies accountable for their actions.
Roberta Kaplan, a lawyer representing CCDH, said the ruling underscores Musk’s inability to manipulate legal processes to his advantage.
Musk’s statements on social media have also drawn criticism, including his endorsement of an anti-Semitic post on X in November 2023.
The judge’s decision is a blow to the world’s third-richest man, who has long portrayed himself as a defender of free speech.
Since acquiring Twitter, Musk has faced plenty of criticism for firing employees who monitored for misinformation, as well as from civil rights groups for allowing posts with harmful and offensive content on the platform.
]]>The company will use the new funding to continue to develop its technology and add new features to the platform.
“It has become a remarkably difficult task for developers to confirm crucial questions like, ‘What dashboards will this schema change affect?,’ ‘Can I deploy this code change safely?’ or ‘What data pipelines do we have that are not working?’” said Alon Nafta, CEO and co-founder of Foundational.
“The inability to validate simple code changes, and the lack of visibility and controls, and the time-consuming nature of data engineering create a dramatic bottleneck on innovation and adoption of data and AI”, he added.
By building partnerships with data organizations around the world, Foundational aims to redefine the way large-scale data platforms are built and maintained. With this funding, the company will continue to evolve its technology and introduce new product capabilities for data developers.
