From the Cuban website
Statement by the [Cuban] Ministry of #ForeignAffairs

«The Ministry of the Interior has detected and it is working to neutralize and dismantle a #HumanTrafficking network that operates from #Russia in order to incorporate #Cuban citizens living there and even some living in #Cuba, into the military forces that participate in military operations in #Ukraine.»

As per #YaroslavTrofimov , Chief #ForeignAffairs correspondent of the #WallStreetJournal

#Cuba says it broke up a ring recruiting #Cubans as mercenaries to fight for #Russian troops in #Ukraine. Unusual step to go so public against #Moscow.

Do I have anyone in my network who researches North Korean propaganda? A friend living in Seoul gave me these leaflets airdropped in the city. I'll mail them to someone with a good use for them.

today’s most advanced AI models—also known as “frontier” models—use five billion times the computing power of cutting-edge models from a decade ago. Processing that once took weeks now happens in seconds. Models that can handle tens of trillions of parameters are coming in the next couple of years. “Brain scale” models with more than 100 trillion parameters—roughly the number of synapses in the human brain—will be viable within five years. #foreignAffairs #AI https://www.foreignaffairs.com/world/artificial-intelligence-power-paradox

But other political scientists sharply disagreed. Last year, @henryfarrell, #JeremyWallace and #AbrahamNewman published a thoroughgoing rebuttal to Harari in *#ForeignAffairs*:

They argued that - like everyone who gets excited about AI, only to have their hopes dashed - dictators seeking to use AI to understand the public mood would run into serious #TrainingData bias problems.
