Facebook on Tuesday removed a post from President Trump in which he falsely claimed that Covid-19 is less deadly than the seasonal flu. From a report: Facebook spokesperson Andy Stone confirmed the company removed the post for breaking its rules on Covid-19 misinformation. President Trump has, by his own admission, played down the threat of Covid-19. Now, while battling his own bout of the disease, he has continued to dishonestly downplay the severity of the virus.

Пет-проект, который не умер: система бронирования устройств как полигон для AI-разработки

Привет, Хабр. На связи Маша Лещинская, Head of QA в Surf. Мы все любим пет-проекты, и еще больше — пет-проекты на AI. Но есть нюанс: большинство таких штук забываются через неделю, потому что их сложно и дорого поддерживать.

Но модели, GPU, gateway, лимиты, аудит, политики доступа, RAG, журналы и ответственность должны жить в отдельном корпоративном слое.ИИ должен быть доступен из каждой корпоративной системы, но не должен принадлежать ни одной из них.
