Une chorale inclusive et solidaire Des enfants, âgés de 10 à 15 ans, présentent des troubles du spectre de l'autisme. Ils chantent avec des adultes dits « normaux ». Ensemble, ils forment un chœur qui, au fil des mois, se prépare à donner un grand concert. Du plaisir de chanter à la difficulté d'être accepté tel que l'on est, l'aventure de cette chorale qui se déroule à Lyon raconte les différences, que l'on soit autiste ou pas, et tout ce qui permet de les abolir jusqu'à ne former qu'une seule voix.

Avec l'IA, l'utilisation des voix clonées est en plein boom. Nicolas Petit, dirigeant de la société IA-Audio, partage son expertise sur cette innovation révolutionnaire.Les plateformes modernes, telles qu'Eleven Labs, permettent de créer des voix clonées d'un réalisme saisissant en un temps de traitement informatique de plus en plus rapide. Désormais, le clonage vocal ne nécessite que six heures pour atteindre une ressemblance de 95% à 99%. Cependant, Nicolas Petit, dont la voix est utilisée dans certains épisodes de Monde Numérique, souligne que l'enregistrement initial requiert du temps et des soins particuliers.Malgré certaines limites techniques qui réduisent encore la dimension émotionnelle, l'invité envisage de créer une radio entièrement alimentée par l'IA, avec des animateurs virtuels. Néanmoins, l'IA a encore besoin de la créativité humaine pour assurer un contenu de qualité.Mots-clés : Actu tech, Clonage Vocal, IA, Infos tech, Innovation, Intelligence artificielle, News tech, Podcast, Radio, VoixHébergé par Ausha.

In this episode, David J. Teece, Thomas W. Tusher Professor in Global Business & Faculty Director of the Tusher Center for the Management of Intellectual Capital, at the University of California Berkeley Haas School of Business, discusses his draft article "Big Tech, Big Data and Competition Policy: Favoring Dynamic Over Static Competition," which he co-authored with Nicolas Petit. Teece begins by explaining the concepts of static and dynamic competition. He observes that conventional competition policy has focused on static competition, and argues that is a mistake, because dynamic competition produces much larger long-terms gains. He suggests that policy should focus on long-term consumer welfare and the encouragement of dynamic capabilities. Teece is on Twitter at @David_J_Teece.This episode was hosted by Brian L.

There are many anti-Big Tech activists and politicians who want to heavily regulate or dismantle companies like Amazon, Google, Apple, and Facebook. They fear that these companies have become too big and too powerful, often even referring to these companies as ‘monopolies.' But maybe this isn't a fair characterization. Perhaps these Big Tech companies need to offer far more value to consumers than monopolies particularly do, because they are all in competition with each other. That is the argument put forward by today's guest, Nicolas Petit. Nicolas is a professor of competition law at both the European University Institute and the College of Europe in Burges. He is the author of the recently released book, https://www.amazon.com/Big-Tech-Digital-Economy-Moligopoly/dp/0198837704 (Big Tech and the Digital Economy: The Moligopoly Scenario).

Consumers may love their products and services but, among politicians and activists, the big-technology companies are fast developing a reputation as the Robber Barons of the 21st century. Google recently joined Apple, Amazon and Microsoft as a so-called “tera-cap” – companies valued at more than a trillion dollars. Add Facebook and the five tech giants alone account for a quarter of the S&P500. How have they managed this in such a short timeframe? Their critics claim that Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, Sundar Pichai, Satya Nadella and Tim Cook are just digital versions of Henry Ford, Andrew Carnegie, Andrew Mellon, Cornelius Vanderbilt, and John D. Rockefeller – monopolists who control entry nto their markets. Not so simple, claims Nicolas Petit in Big Tech and the Digital Economy: The Moligopoly Scenario (Oxford University Press, 2020). Concerns about privacy or the dissemination of “fake news” are valid but “looking at these predicaments through monopoly lenses is like using Facebook to get your news. It seems to do the job. But it might well be fake”. “The picture of big tech firms as monopolists is intuitively attractive but analytically wrong,” he writes. “A better picture is one of big tech firms as moligopolists, that is firms that coexist as monopolists and oligopolists”.

Consumers may love their products and services but, among politicians and activists, the big-technology companies are fast developing a reputation as the Robber Barons of the 21st century. Google recently joined Apple, Amazon and Microsoft as a so-called “tera-cap” – companies valued at more than a trillion dollars. Add Facebook and the five tech giants alone account for a quarter of the S&P500. How have they managed this in such a short timeframe? Their critics claim that Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, Sundar Pichai, Satya Nadella and Tim Cook are just digital versions of Henry Ford, Andrew Carnegie, Andrew Mellon, Cornelius Vanderbilt, and John D. Rockefeller – monopolists who control entry nto their markets. Not so simple, claims Nicolas Petit in Big Tech and the Digital Economy: The Moligopoly Scenario (Oxford University Press, 2020).

Tucker comes off as a real asshole but the real story here is that the Hulk has a hammer and everyone that he leg dropped probably has CTE.Who has two Presidents and no electricity, that would be the country with the world's largest oil reserves, Venezuela. Venezuela is having a worse year than R. Kelly. Four days without power, that is one sweaty fucking place ... actually the weather is perfect right now in Venezuela.Nicolas Petit keeps getting close to winning the Iditarod but blowing it. First he couldn't navigate a blizzard in 2017 when he was about to win the race and likely ended up eating all of his dogs just to survive. Now two years and ten new dogs later and he finds himself with a commanding lead 83% through the race. All he has to do is not yell at his alpha dog in front of all the other dogs. Oops. Petit embarrassed lead dog Joey and Joey and all the other dogs said fuck you Nicolas and parked their asses refusing to race. Maybe next year.And so much more in the 'Lighting Round.'

The table is now set for Ulsom, first to White Mountain and only 77 miles from the finish in Nome, to win his first Iditarod championship and the first for a Norwegian -- or anybody else not originally from the U.S. -- since 2005. But, as we hear in this episode, a lead and a long rest at White Mountain hasn't always translated to a win.
