We are currently living in a civilizatory paradox, regressing in almost everything we have created to once again experience barbaric times, while simultaneously inventing things we don't understand, and don't even know if we want.

hello Venezuelan friends, we're very heartbroken about the earthquake.
3 years ago we had a similar earthquake in Turkey where we lost 50.000 souls. to help people out we built a "needs map" where we scraped posts online and put address and name and what the person needs (food, water, saving) so others could help and we managed to get to people. we'd love to help you out, but actually work with local Venezuelan folk in ML, and at HF we are happy to cover inference. please respond to this post if you are interested 🙏🏼 the project is outdated so it would take a bit and you would need people to label a dataset shortly but other than that it should work
Venezuelans Dig Through Ruins as Survivors Wait for Rescue After Devastating Earthquakes🚨🇻🇪
Scenes from northern Venezuela show residents searching through collapsed homes by hand after the powerful twin earthquakes struck earlier this week.
Video captured by Associated Press journalist Juan Arraez shows communities in some of the hardest-hit areas saying they have seen little official rescue presence and are relying heavily on volunteers and neighbors.
The 7.2 and 7.5 magnitude earthquakes caused widespread destruction, with rescue operations still underway and casualty figures continuing to change as teams reach devastated zones. Families remain searching for loved ones while aid slowly arrives.

Friday is the International Day in Support of Victims of Torture.
Despite being prohibited under international law, torture persists around the world.
The UN has long condemned it as one of the vilest acts human beings can inflict on one another.

Honored to unveil my poster for the 20th Anniversary release of Pan’s Labyrinth in theaters for @RealGDT - 20 years ago, I was creating covers for a DC/Vertigo series called Fables, and also developed a collaboration with Prada based on fairytales (which included a tiny porcelain Faun). Pan’s Labyrinth was an artistic achievement that not only spoke to the moment and of deep mythology, but represented an uncompromising vision that inspired me and countless others.
Amigas y amigos de Venezuela, sabemos que están pasando por momentos muy difíciles y es normal sentirse asustados, abrumados y tristes, especialmente cuando, además de cuidar de nosotros mismos, también estamos cuidando de niñas y niños.
Les compartimos una pequeña guía para poder calmar y acompañar a los más pequeños:

Last week at the British Film Institute, @RealGDT sounded the alarm on Artificial Intelligence and threats to creative freedom, saying: “We are on the verge of image illiteracy. We are on the verge of cinema illiteracy... The pact between man and image is sacred, but we are in a time when that is in danger... We are told images can be generated by artificial means. The existence of an image is not just to be there. It is to connect us, to make us feel beauty.”

Del Toro's statement comes in contrast to Martin Scorsese’s recent public promotion of generative Artificial Intelligence (AI), which motivated our #adg800 to issue a public statement: https://t.co/wEwd3nJsZa
'THE GHOST IN THE SHELL' Director Mokochan says the new series being hand-drawn on paper is the best way to represent the original manga
"The manga is obviously hand-drawn on paper; it’s analog... And so even though what is depicted here is this cyber world, the fact that it’s been hand drawn by people is what gives it, it gives it its warmth, and its appeal, and that was something I wanted to replicate in the anime."
