O jornalista Pierre Godon lembra-nos do peso da IA no mundo editorial em França. Imagem espetacular de Pauline Le Nours , designer gráfica editorial da franceinfo .                «Certains éditeurs se fichent de sortir un livre pourri» S'ils avaient dû manifester, ils auraient laissé tomber le trajet classique entre Bastille et Nation pour un parcours de la rue Littré à la rue Larousse, deux artères du sud de Paris célébrant des auteurs de dictionnaires. Mais la grève des traducteurs, mardi 30 septembre, se fera à bas bruit. A l'appel du collectif IA Alerte générale, ces professionnels sont invités à délaisser stylos et claviers pour vingt-quatre heures à l'occasion de la Saint-Jérôme, le saint patron de la profession. Une première pour ce corps de métier. "Comme pour tous les emplois de gens qui bossent de chez eux en pyjama avec un chat sur les genoux, c'est dur de se faire entendre" , ironise Charles Recoursé, à qui on doit ...

by Mizuki Uchiyama for BBC Travel . As Studio Ghibli turns 40, we visit the forests, springs and villages that inspired its most beloved films, and meet those preserving their magic. From moss-draped cedar forests to steamy bathhouses and suburban woodlands, the animated worlds of Studio Ghibli often feel fantastical yet familiar. Across 23 feature films, the Japanese studio's vividly drawn landscapes – where kurosuke  ( soot sprites ) scuttle and giant cat-buses roam – have transported generations of viewers into realms where nature and fantasy blur. But many of these beloved settings weren't born from pure imagination. They were inspired by real places across Japan – some sacred, others endangered but all profoundly cherished. As Studio Ghibli celebrates its 40th anniversary this year, we're exploring the real-world places behind some of its most iconic films. Yakushima is a rare and enchanting landscape that inspired Princess Mononoke (Credit: Alamy) Yakushima: T...

By Spencer Klavan.for The Free Press . No one reads anymore. This is something that teachers of literature like me are always saying. “Every generation, at some point, discovers that students cannot read as well as they would like or as well as professors expect,” wrote the scholar of literacy Martha Maxwell in 1979. But more and more , educators are finding that the last few years have been meaningfully different. Students are showing up at even high-end schools having never read a novel cover to cover. Columbia literature professor Nicholas Dames told The Atlantic ’s Rose Horowitch that his students “struggle to attend to small details while keeping track of the overall plot.” Last month, as students returned to school, a new study made headlines because it found that the number of Americans who read for pleasure has dropped an astonishing 40 percent since the start of the century.  As a college teacher, I’ve noticed this trend too. My students are perfectly earne...

  by Alexis Petridis 20. The Gunner’s Dream (1983) Low on memorable tunes, big on racked, strangulated lead vocals, possessed of a worldview that makes every other Pink Floyd album look like a gushing font of Pollyanna-ish optimism, The Final Cut is a slog. But The Gunner’s Dream cuts through the gloom, thanks to a heartbreaking, fragile melody. 19. Wot’s … Uh the Deal? (1972) Overshadowed by the albums that preceded and followed it, Obscured by Clouds might be the most underrated release in Pink Floyd’s catalogue: it boasts fantastic instrumental experiments, musical signposts to The Dark Side of the Moon and, in Wot’s … Uh the Deal?, a beautifully careworn, Beatles-y ballad undersold by its daft title. 18. Grantchester Meadows (1969) The studio half of Ummagumma is a mess – a band audibly searching for direction without success – but it contains one unequivocal triumph: Roger Waters’ evocation of the parkland on the banks of the River Cam, its pastoral calm spiked wit...

 By Varsha Bansal to The Guardian : I n the spring of 2024, when Rachael Sawyer, a technical writer from Texas, received a LinkedIn message from a recruiter hiring for a vague title of writing analyst, she assumed it would be similar to her previous gigs of content creation. On her first day of work a week later, however, her expectations went bust. Instead of writing words herself, Sawyer’s job was to rate and moderate the content created by artificial intelligence. The job initially involved a mix of parsing through meeting notes and chats summarized by Google’s Gemini, and, in some cases, reviewing short films made by the AI. On occasion, she was asked to deal with extreme content, flagging violent and sexually explicit material generated by Gemini for removal, mostly text. Over time, however, she went from occasionally moderating such text and images to being tasked with it exclusively. “I was shocked that my job involved working with such distressing content,” ...
