L’IA grignote inexorablement le travail des traducteurs littéraires

Nombre de traducteurs redoutent un déferlement de l’intelligence artificielle de plus en plus utilisée par les éditeurs, qui ne la mentionnent pas toujours.

#3184 - Funny Numbers
A black-and-white line-drawn comic. At the top, a hanging banner reads: “Mathematical Society, 2025 Meeting”. Below the banner, four stick figures stand next to a white board. Three are on the left and one on the right. On the board is a list of numbers: “23 (skidoo!)” “42” “69” “420” “1,337” “58,008” The figures say: A: “Any other new developments from the year to cover before we wrap?” B: “Oh, the teens picked a new funny number.” C: “Aww, I’m glad to hear they’re still doing that.” D, the figure at the right, says "I’ll add it to the list”, writes "67" on the white board and circles it. Hidden text: "In 1899, people were walking around shouting '23' at each other and laughing, and confused reporters were writing articles trying to figure out what it meant."

OU says students have a right to be free from a lecturer’s “impermissible evaluative standards.” Translation: if a student invokes Christianity, academic rigor no longer applies. Poor writing and off-topic work get a free pass so long as they are…

If you write "no Virgos" in your dating profile, you're not only signalling you don't want responses from people born between August 22 and September 22, but also from anyone with a brain. Just a head's up for Millie, 27, from Barnsley.
