Podcasts about Netvibes

Tariq Krim est un entrepreneur visionnaire que j'ai la chance de connaître depuis de nombreuses années. Il a fondé Netvibes — une plateforme pionnière dans la personnalisation du web dont les plus anciens se souviennent mais simplement pour vous permettre de mieux comprendre : tout le monde utilisait Netvibes et Zuckerberg était un grand fan entre autres — et aujourd'hui, il est devenu l'une des voix les plus lucides sur l'évolution du numérique et de l'intelligence artificielle.Dans cet épisode, j'ai invité Tariq pour démonter avec lui les grands mythes autour de l'IA. Ensemble, nous avons exploré sans détour ce qu'est réellement cette technologie, loin des discours alarmistes ou des promesses irréalistes. J'ai questionné Tariq sur les limites techniques des intelligences artificielles actuelles, leur impact sur notre société, notre manière de penser, de travailler, et sur la géopolitique mondiale.Nous avons aussi abordé des sujets fondamentaux comme la productivité individuelle face à l'automatisation, l'impact de l'IA sur la solitude sociale, et le rôle crucial de l'Europe face à la compétition entre les grandes puissances technologiques. Tariq a une capacité rare : celle de parler avec précision autant de la technique que des dynamiques politiques, sociétales et économiques sous-jacentes.Dans cet épisode, nous parlons de la réalité de l'IA (non, ce n'est pas une "vraie" intelligence), de la désinformation médiatique autour de cette révolution, de la militarisation des technologies et de l'urgence d'apprendre à penser par soi-même dans un monde saturé de contenus générés.C'est un échange riche, sans faux-semblants, parfois personnel, toujours accessible — dans lequel nous avons essayé de vous donner des clés pour mieux comprendre ce moment charnière que nous vivons.5 citations marquantes"L'intelligence artificielle n'est qu'une extension de l'informatique, pas une révolution magique.""Le vrai pouvoir de demain sera entre les mains de ceux qui savent encore penser par eux-mêmes.""L'IA n'est pas intelligente, elle est performante dans des domaines précis, c'est tout.""La géopolitique de l'IA est un combat pour la suprématie mondiale, pas pour le bien commun.""Chaque gain de productivité lié à l'IA déplace le travail, mais ne le supprime pas."10 questions structurées posées dans l'épisodeQuels sont pour toi les plus grands mythes autour de l'intelligence artificielle ?L'IA est-elle vraiment capable d'intelligence au sens humain ?Comment ChatGPT influence-t-il nos biais personnels ?Que penses-tu du concept de "deep search" dans l'IA ?Quel est le modèle économique réel des IA aujourd'hui ?En quoi l'IA est-elle devenue un enjeu militaire mondial ?Quelle place peut jouer l'Europe dans cette course à l'IA ?Est-ce que l'IA menace réellement l'emploi ?Comment éduquer les jeunes dans un monde dominé par l'IA ?L'usage intensif des IA risque-t-il d'accroître notre solitude numérique ?Timelaps : 0:00 Introduction à l'IA et présentation de Tariq Krim0:50 Démontage des mythes autour de l'intelligence artificielle3:30 Pourquoi l'IA reste fondamentalement de l'informatique6:00 ChatGPT et personnalisation des biais cognitifs9:30 Deep search : opportunités et limites13:50 Impact réel sur la productivité individuelle20:00 Rôle des médias dans la perception publique de l'IA28:00 IA et militarisation technologique36:00 L'impact de l'IA sur l'éducation et l'apprentissage41:00 Solitude numérique et relations humaines Suggestion d'autres épisodes à écouter : #205 Réseaux sociaux: y'a t-il un pilote dans l'avion? avec Tariq Krim (https://audmns.com/QYXZuUJ) Vlan #49 Le Slow web: vers une vision plus éthique d'internet avec Tariq Krim (https://audmns.com/jfEgxAx) #146 Comment l'intelligence artificielle peut réellement vous rendre plus humain.e avec Alexandre Pachulski (https://audmns.com/KdwwONa) #141 Les technologies et l'intelligence artificielle face à la crise climatique avec Luc Julia (https://audmns.com/WJCdimQ) Vlan #56 Ethique et intelligence artificielle sont elles compatibles?  avec Aurélie Jean (https://audmns.com/mYmYlUh)Distribué par Audiomeans.

Japan C&SI Alliance & Netvibes Director, Dassault Systemes as at December 2024 when we recorded this session. Previously Fabio was C&SI Alliance Executive, Dassault Systemes; Global Alliance Director, Strategic Business Director, Director Strategic Pursuit Team, Director Mechatronics Solution at Siemens Digital Industries Software; Project Manager Promec Automotive. Summary A seasoned leader with extensive experience in Japan, he highlights the unique challenges and adaptations required to lead effectively in a Japanese business environment. Having transitioned from a Western leadership model to managing teams in Japan, he underscores the significance of communication, trust-building, and cultural sensitivity. One of the most striking differences Crisafulli encountered was the approach to communication. In contrast to his Italian background, where opinions are expressed directly, he observed that Japanese team members often remain silent in meetings. Instead of voicing their concerns or ideas immediately, they may provide feedback privately afterward. This indirect communication style required him to cultivate an environment where employees felt comfortable sharing their perspectives, even if it meant allowing silence during discussions. He learned to encourage open dialogue and create a psychologically safe space where disagreement was not only tolerated but valued. Crisafulli also emphasizes the importance of leading by example. Rather than issuing direct orders, he believes in granting ownership and responsibility to his team members. By allowing them the freedom to make decisions within a guided framework, he fosters a sense of accountability and motivation. This is particularly crucial in Japan, where employees may be hesitant to take initiative unless they understand their role's significance in the broader strategy. Another key aspect of his leadership philosophy is trust. He makes a deliberate effort to demonstrate trust in his team first, which, in turn, encourages reciprocal trust. He remains observant of body language and behavioural changes, recognizing early warning signs of disengagement or dissatisfaction. If a team member struggles with performance, he engages in direct and private conversations to understand their challenges, offering support or reassignment if needed. Crisafulli has also noticed a shift in younger Japanese employees, who show a greater willingness to take risks and seek innovation compared to past generations. He believes that providing them with opportunities to experiment, even at the risk of failure, fosters both personal and professional growth. In managing headquarters expectations, Crisafulli advocates for adaptability and diplomacy. He encourages executives to move beyond stereotypes about Japan and to understand local business realities firsthand. His approach to leadership is deeply rooted in respect, empowerment, and continuous learning, making him an effective bridge between Western corporate structures and the intricacies of Japanese workplace culture.          

Frédéric Taddeï et Tariq Krim débattent des risques d'un "coup d'État numérique" par Elon Musk. Ils s'appuient sur des révélations concernant l'accès de Musk à des données sensibles du Trésor américain, évoquant un scénario similaire en France avec France Connect. Ils alertent sur la "militarisation" d'internet et la dépendance des États envers la technologie, faisant de la maîtrise informatique un enjeu crucial. L'émission explore aussi la lutte entre l'"État profond" et les nouvelles forces technologiques, Elon Musk étant perçu comme un acteur cherchant à imposer sa vision de l'État.Notre équipe a utilisé un outil d'Intelligence artificielle via les technologies d'Audiomeans© pour accompagner la création de ce contenu écrit.

Tariq Krim est un entrepreneur français à succès. En lançant Netvibes en 2005, il connaît un succès mondial, Mark Zuckerberg utilise son service ainsi que tout les personnes plus ou moins engagées dans le web social. Il partage dans ce long épisode comment tout cela s'est mis en place mais ensuite tous les problèmes qui sont liés en terme d'algorithme, de moderation, de modèles sur les réseaux sociaux qui ont pris une place majeure dans nos vies. Avez vous même réalisé qu'ils pilotaient vos rêves? Il n'existe pas de gouvernement mondial pouvant modérer le pouvoir des réseaux sociaux et si de formidables choses se sont faites sur les réseaux sociaux, malheureusement, ils génèrent aussi de nombreux problèmes: manipulation de masse par les partis extrêmes (les partis modérés sont mauvais à l'exercice), dépression chez les jeunes et immenses problèmes de confiance en soi des jeunes filles, quasi aucune modération et donc des problématiques de propos haineux. C'est précisément ce qu'a mis en lumière Frances Haugen en fin d'année. Ce qui peut être difficile à accepter pour la majorité d'entres nous, c'est que le fonctionnement de nos cerveaux n'a pas trop évolué sur les derniers milliers d'années par conséquent nous sommes tous très facilement manipulables. Aujourd'hui, les GAFA (Google Amazon, Facebook, Apple) nous connaissent mieux que nous même et en tous cas mieux que nos amis, nos maris/femmes, notre famille etc...Le micro ciblage pose un immense souci en réalité au niveau individuel mais aussi on niveau national ou Européen. Ce qui était décrit comme une dystopie dans les années 80 est arrivée et amène cette question cruciale, même si uniquement philosophique à ce stade, faut il démanteler les géants du web quand même eux ne maîtrisent plus très bien le monstre qu'ils ont créé Suggestion d'autres épisodes à écouter : Vlan #49 Le Slow web: vers une vision plus éthique d'internet avec Tariq Krim (https://cutt.ly/bfFwsdJ) #141 Les technologies et l'intelligence artificielle face à la crise climatique avec Luc Julia (https://audmns.com/WJCdimQ) Vlan #56 Ethique et intelligence artificielle sont elles compatibles?  avec Aurélie Jean (https://cutt.ly/nfFwz3O) Vlan #102 Comment éduquer ses enfants dans ce monde complexe avec Joel de Rosnay et Aurélie Jean (https://cutt.ly/kfFwjRz)

Face aux risques de perte de notre souveraineté dans le cloud, l'entrepreneur du numérique Tariq Krim en appelle à une prise de conscience des pouvoirs publics. Alors que l'on assiste à des associations entre des groupes français et des entreprises américaines du numérique (Capgemini et Orange avec Microsoft, Thales avec Google), des voix s'élèvent contre les risques de ces rapprochements en termes de souveraineté numérique. Selon Tariq Krim. pionnier du numérique français, cela fait peser un grand risque les données privées des français et sur l'indépendance technologique de la France à long terme.

StopCovid? Qu’est-ce que c’est ? Comment ça marche ? Avec quelle efficacité et quels risques ? Et qu'est-ce que le flou qui entoure le développement de cette application  en France nous dit de la politique du numérique telle que menée dans "la start-up nation" ? Un entretien de Marika Mathieu avec Tariq Krim, pionnier du Web français, multi-entrepreneur (Netvibes et Jolicloud) et ancien vice-président du Conseil national du numérique, pour évoquer le volet numérique de la politique sanitaire menée en France. Tariq Krim a également lancé Polite.one, une plateforme qui veut permettre aux utilisateurs de ­reprendre le contrôle de leur vie numérique.

As our dependency on the digital world increases, it’s important to remember that now more than ever, people are actively searching for value-packed products and services. But how can your business provide true value when so many other businesses are trying to do the same thing?  Dr. Saksham Sharda from Outgrow.co joins me to shed light on some of the best ways to collect data from your social media followers and how to use that data to create more interactive content, like quizzes and polls, that’ll make your people want to stick around and recognize what you have to offer!   In this podcast episode, we share:  How Outgrow supports social media content and marketing  Why user engagement is so important      How to integrate widgets, apps, etc. to your marketing strategy  Benefits of using interactive content for small business owners How to protect users’ privacy and data Common misconceptions about social media  Example of how to use a widget to get email addresses or other valuable data      Memorable Quotes:  “That's the counterbalance to being so digital and tech-focused...we don't want to feel like a number, we don't want to feel like people don't get us and don't understand our needs.”  “Keep your customers engaged with your content by providing a personalized value like yourself…”  “I would rather you spend all your research for 2 weeks producing something of real value than actually trying to post something every day or once a week.” “There’s a lot of social noise because of social media...everyone just wants to be noticed and that makes it hard to be noticed.”   “There’s so much clutter online and what’s going to catch the user’s eye is info-graphically presented data...”    About Saksham: Dr. Saksham Sharda specialises in data collection, analysis, filtering, and transfer by the means of interactive, cultural, and trending widgets. Interactive experiences designed by him have been featured on ProductHunt, TrendHunter, TechCrunch, NetVibes, FactoryBerlin, Digimarcon World Silicon Valley, and at The European Affiliate Summit.

durée : 00:45:38 - Signes des temps - par : Marc Weitzmann - Depuis son retour à l'antenne, Signes des Temps s'efforce d'esquisser à gros traits quelques tendances du chaos en train de se construire. Aujourd'hui, l'émission explore l'avenir du traçage informatique à partir de la série Westworld. - réalisation : Charlotte Roux - invités : Antoinette Rouvroy Philosophe juridique, chercheuse au Fonds de la recherche scientifique (FRS-FNRS) à Namur, en Belgique, rattachée au Centre de recherche en information, droit et société (Crids).; Paul-Olivier Dehaye Ancien enseignant-chercheur à l’Université de Zurich, avant de se lancer à partir de 2016 dans le combat pour la protection des données, membre du bureau international de MyData.org, une ONG qui lutte pour le contrôle de leurs données par les individus.; Tariq Krim Entrepreneur, fondateur de Netvibes, Jolicloud et de la plateformes de web éthique Polite.

Here are the show notes for Episode 19 "You've lost that syncing feeling". The show is called this because our Topic topic is about losing the Xmarks URL synchronization tool. Mainframe Our "Mainframe" topic discusses moving from V4 to V5 zFS, prompted by a user comment that had a very positive experience. The old version for zFS was V4. V5 gives you a directory using a tree structure for faster searching. This should be faster than a naive linear search approach. To take advantage of this, you need to convert from old V4 format to V5. You can convert: offline with _IOEFSUTL_, online with _zfsadm convert_ , _IOEFSPRM CONVERTTOV5=ON_ , and on _MOUNT_ - you choose. Steps are: ensure fully at V2.1, set _IOEPRMxx format_aggrversion=5_ for new file systems, set _IOEPRMxx change_aggrversion_on_mount=on_ for fast safe file system switch to V5, determine if you want _IOEPRMxx CONVERTTOV5=ON_ for one-time switch on directory access. Delay is expected! If cannot tolerate one-time delay, use _MOUNT CONVERTTOV5_ to selectively determine most benefit, on large directories and those highest used (_F ZFS,QUERY,FILESETS_) Use _zfsadm fileinfo_ to see a directory version, use _zfsadm aggrinfo -long_ to look at all the file systems. Performance Our Performance topic is a survey of Licence-Related Instrumentation. Most shops are very conscious of software costs. Martin discusses the instrumentation portion. SMF can help you: System-Level SMF 70 give you the rolling 4 hour averages, defined capacity and group capacity information, and high-level CPU . System-Level SMF 89 gives you more detailed information on licencing: product usage names, and CPU. Service Class Level SMF 72-3 gives you Service Units (SUs) consumed on zIIP, on general purpose CP, and zIIP-Eligible on general purpose CP. Mobile SUs one category and total SUs another Resource consumption in general . Address Space Level SMF 30 gives you a usage data section for topology and for CPU in a product sometimes. Container-Based Pricing introduces new metrics: 70-1, 89, 72-3, and Tenant Classes and Tenant Resource Groups explicitly documented. Topics Our podcast "Topics" topic is about Marna losing a handy and simple URL sync tool, XMarks. Xmarks used to let you save bookmarks between browsers with other cool capabilities. It was discontinued on May 1, 2018. XMarks was a plug-in to browser, logon, sync, and they were there! With multiple profiles. Here are some https://techwiser.com/xmarks-alternatives/ ? : NetVibes: better for rss feeds and dashboard seem to be its strength. Google Bookmarks syncs URLs; But still only for Firefox and Chrome. Gmarks will connect to google servers. Modern browsers can fake the User Agent to look like IE Diigo (at https://www.diigo.com/toolsw) ith a toolbar: not used it. Pricing plans, sharing URLs. A bit too heavyweight/ The promising one is called Raindrop (at https://raindrop.io/) for Chrome, FF, and Safari. Just started trying it out. Works between Windows and Android! Safari / Mobile Safari use iCloud syncing and work out of the box. But if you share an Apple ID, watch out! Contacting Us You can reach Marna on Twitter as mwalle and by email. You can reach Martin on Twitter as martinpacker and by email and blogs at blog.

John asked which blog reader The Guys use, and the answer is Feedly at https://feedly.com. The basic plan is free. Katherine tells us that she uses NetVibes at https://www.netvibes.com/ as her blog reader. Juliet in the UK thanks us for the podcasts, and especially Drew's discussion of setting goals to focus research. Drew is also posting articles on this topic at the blog. Linda shared a great resource for learning how to read old Scottish documents at ScottishHandwriting.com (http://www.scottishhandwriting.com/). Mary Ann located a book about slave ancestors and their names at the free Project Gutenberg website at https://www.gutenberg.org/. The book is The Underground Railroad by William Still. John shared some great thoughts about recording data on transgender family members. David Mann, founder of Heirloom Software (https://heirloomsoftware.com/), shared information about their forthcoming release of Origins (https://heirloomsoftware.com/origins/). The software is in beta testing now, but includes extensive DNA management tools, the ability to record details about any person (male, female, transgender), any relationship information, and more. Sara shared information about a US naturalization document, the Declaration of Intention, for her great-great-grandfather, Joseph Winzer. George and Drew delved into this person and his family and discovered a lot of documents that provided new information. We will be publishing our research, along with document images, maps, and more in the blog over the next couple of weeks. You're going to want to follow along! Susan shared information about another Boddie person to Drew. Marc raised questions about the most efficient use of multiple platforms and websites for his family trees, GEDCOM files, and DNA matches. He uses RootsMagic and interfaces with the hints for Ancestry and MyHeritage, and works with GEDmatch and Family Tree DNA. [Here is a link to how Randy Seaver does it for the non-DNA parts of it, although it does not address how to update a tree on MyHeritage.]  Steve shares information about a letter to the editor from the Lincoln [Nebraska} Star from 10 April 1918 concerning German-Americans caught up in the anti-German hysteria during World War I.

Tariq Krim est un entrepreneur, fondateur de Netvibes, service au succès mondial, il est désormais engagé dans le slow web avec dissident.ai. Je connais Tariq depuis des années et le moins que l’on puisse dire c’est qu’il a toujours été en avance sur son temps. Avec Tariq, j’essaie de comprendre ce qu’est le slow web ou en tous cas à quoi pourrait ressembler un web plus éthique. J'imagine que c'est une conversation que vous avez régulièrement dans ces diners pendant lesquels on refait le monde. Cet épisode, c'est un peu ma version. Le slow web, en quelques mots Quand vous entendez « Slow web » vous pensez sans doute à « déconnexion » mais ce n’est pas du tout le sujet. Comme le rappelle Tariq, la tendance « slow food » s’est construite en opposition au fast food mais il n’a jamais été question de manger un mauvais hamburger plus lentement. Cette idée doit même vous faire sourire à l’instant ou vous la lisez. Le slow food, c’est choisir des bons ingrédients bio, c’est prendre le temps de cuisiner, d’inviter des amis etc… De la même manière pour Internet, l’idée n’est pas de ralentir l’usage d’un web « malade » mais d’envisager le web différemment. L’oligarchie numérique des GAFA a imposé un modèle dans lequel le consommateur n’est plus du tout au centre, sinon comme un produit dont les marques consomment les données. Par ailleurs, quelque part les réseaux sociaux ont créé une réalité sociale alternative qui pose un vrai problème de santé publique car dans un monde à la réalité déformée, votre vie à toujours l’air insuffisante. Comme le souligne Tariq, nous sommes pressurisés en permanence car nous avons toujours l’impression de passer à coté de quelque chose. Il ne s’y trompe pas quand il évoque l’augmentation du nombre de suicide chez les plus jeunes. Les taux n’ont jamais été aussi élevés. Pour Tariq, il faut donc se poser la question de la possibilité d’un autre modèle. Autopsie d’un malaise sociétale La question reste de savoir si cela est nécessaire de remettre en cause le modèle…n’est-ce pas jouer le jeu du marketing de la peur que de brandir à tout va l’intelligence artificielle et les algorithmes? Selon Tariq, c’est essentiel car nous avons perdu le contrôle de notre vie numérique. Voir Acast.com/privacy pour les informations sur la vie privée et l'opt-out.

Au menu de cette première Matinale de la semaine, deux types de portraits doux-amers : celui, réel, d'une nouvelle génération de paysans français sur laquelle ont enquêté Gaspard d'Allens et Lucille Leclerc, auteurs de Les néo-paysans (Seuil, 2016), et celui, fictionnel, de Jean, le héro ultra-connecté de La Vraie Vie (Futoropolis, 2016), une bande dessinée de Thomas Cadène et Grégroy Mardon.Diplômés de Sciences Po Paris et journalistes pour le quotidien électronique écolo' Reporterre, Gaspard d'Allens et Lucille Leclerc reviennent pour nous, en première partie d'émission, sur le périple qui a donné naissance à leur livre, Les néo-paysans. Pendant près d'un an, ils ont sillonné les routes de France à la rencontre de ces cultivateurs, maraîchers et éleveurs néophytes, sans ancrage familial dans le milieu. Venus à l'agriculture sur le tard, par convictions, pour réaliser un rêve ou tout simplement pour changer de vie, ces outsiders pour la plupart d'une trentaine d'années ne sont pas un phénomène isolé. Ils représentent aujourd'hui près de 30% des installations agricoles, un chiffre qui a doublé en 10 ans, entérinant ainsi radicalement le mouvement. Alors qu'une crise socio-économique sans précédent secoue actuellement le secteur, ces paysans d'un nouveau genre défient les systèmes de production conventionnels pour écrire, entre espoirs et désillusions, une autre histoire de la paysannerie française, plus engagée et militante. On peut néanmoins interroger sa capacité à faire système : plus fédéré que ses cousins des années 1970, ce mouvement des néo-paysans peut-il réellement faire évoluer le monde agricole ou est-il condamné à rester à la marge ?« Ils ont un idéal fort, et c'est ce qui va les porter car quand on n'est pas issu du milieu agricole, on ne rêve pas d'une ferme à mille vaches, mais d'une ferme pour servir le pays, d'un éco-système qui soit beau. » Retour à la ville en deuxième partie d'émission, où la parole est donnée à Thomas Cadène et Grégory Mardon, respectivement scénariste et dessinateur de La vraie vie, une bande-dessinée qui explore le quotidien physique et virtuel de Jean, cadre municipal d'une petite ville de province et accro à Internet. Au cœur de ce récit ultra-contemporain, une réflexion sur la construction et le développement des identités et avatars multiples que permet la vie en réseau. Des lignes pleines et des aplats de couleurs franches permettent un traitement plastique égal des scènes de la vie de tous les jours — journées de travail, cafés en terrasse — et de la vie sur le Net — Twitter, Netvibes, Counterstrikes et films pornos. En superposant ainsi intelligemment le système des cases de BD à celui de la navigation web à fenêtres multiples, les deux auteurs interrogent l'intégrité de la frontière censée régir les espaces concomitants de la vie réelle et de la vie connectée pour, in fine, abroger le problème : « Il n'y a pas de différences. On n'a qu'une seule vie. »« Que ce soit au club de bridge ou sur Internet, il y a cette idée qu'on est toujours maître de ce que l'on fait. » Enfin, la chronique de Jules analyse les correspondances entre la campagne de Jean-Luc Mélenchon et les outils de communication du candidat démocrate à la primaire américaine, Bernie Sanders, tandis que Dania décrypte et fait le point sur les mouvements pluriels de la « gauchosphère ».Présentation : Camille Regache / Réalisation : Mikel Perez / Co-interview : Lorène Lavocat et Anna Péan /Chroniques : Jules Brussel et Dania Kaddur / Coordination : Elsa Landard et Camille Regache / Web : Maureen Lepers
