LinkedIn deserves some disruption. OpenAI announces a jobs platform to put employers in contact with people with AI skills. And an academy to teach AI skills that businesses need. They hope to certify 10 million Americans by 2030.

2.8% doesn’t seem that crazy to me? Don’t we target like 2-2.5?
A 0.9% month-over-month increase is significant.

Looks like a "GPT text output condenser" might be a good project to work on.

> "The FTC's lawsuit against Meta defies reality. The evidence at trial will show what every 17-year-old in the world knows: Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp compete with Chinese-owned TikTok, YouTube, X, iMessage and many others," Meta spokesperson Chris Sgro said in a statement.
Everyone knew at the time that Facebook bought Instagram because it threatened Facebook's dominance, and hindsight shows that exactly that happened. There's a huge swath of people that dropped off FB and now use Insta, but Meta owns both. It was a great move but it was absolutely anti-competitive at the time.
The government is claiming that Facebook bought Meta and Whatsapp because it couldn't compete with them.
Is that illegal? I don't understand! Every company that buys another company buys it because it adds something to their business. It's a ridiculous claim.
These people are elected and paid more than enough to pay attention. If they can’t be bothered doing their job, we’ll elect someone else who can.
You don't know if they're doing their job from a photo. Perhaps they're replying to constituents, reading the details of the law they are being asked to vote on, checking with colleagues on the status of votes, etc. You don't know. It's just harassment without facts.
It's not illegal, but unlawful for data controllers to process such personal data without free permission. But in this case there's likely an exception in GDPR article 85, for "For processing carried out for journalistic purposes or the purpose of academic artistic or literary expression" [1].

Oh I can use your personal private data for artistic expression?!?
Doubtful.
Which law makes this illegal? Presumably the live stream is setup by the flemish government themselves, and they're all public figures acting in a public capacity. Maybe there is something else here, or some detail of Belgian law, but from the outside it doesn't seem there is much of a privacy argument.
There's a brand new AI law too. You'd likely need explicit consent of these people to have their personal data (face) processed by AI.
The only real solution is to implement some sort of identity management system, but that has so many issues that make it a non-starter.
