Exceed speed limits It has consequences. In some cases, the infraction does not exceed some hundred euros and a good review of Card pointswhile the most serious can punish themselves with jail sentences. An Austrian driver who stopped for Circular at 123 km/h With his bugatti chiron, he would have preferred any of the aforementioned sanctions, in order not to have to face the punishment that the Austrian police imposed: seized his car. Bugatti Chiron runs a lot, sir agent A driver in Austria was arrested by the police for leading 123 km/h in an area where the maximum limit was 60 km/h. This speeding, which represents more than double the allowed limit, led the police to apply the usual regulations in these cases: the immediate confiscation of its bugatti chiron. According to him Austrian medium Heutethe incident occurred in the famous Ringstrasse of Vienna, a ring -avenue surrounding the center of Vienna with a 60 km/h speed limit. A Patrol equipped with a mobile radar He took positions in the immediate vicinity of Parliament to control speed infractions in that area. What they did not expect is that they would end up stopping and confiscating a car with 1,500 hp driving twice the speed allowed by a city with such restrictive traffic standards. In his defense, the 38 -year -old driver alleged that the supercar, who carried German registration, belonged to a friend, but this did not prevent the authorities from confiscating the car immediately, as collect in a video Uploaded to YouTube by a witness. In addition to the confiscation of the vehicle, the driver also lost his driving license on the spot. This incident underlines the seriousness with which Austria is trying the Serious traffic infractions, a regulation that It has endorsed recently to dissuade offenders. Touch the image to go to the original message Traffic Law in Austria Austria has recently implemented stricter laws against speeding, allowing vehicle confiscation in cases of serious infractions. This regulation applies to drivers who Speed limits exceedin an effort to reduce accidents and improve road safety in the country. The regulation establishes that, in case of exceeding the limit out of the town in 50 km/ho more than 30 km/h in town, the driver will run out of driving license. In this case, the Chiron driver doubled this maximum limit of 30 km/h when driving at 123 km/h. In addition to these limitations, it is specified that if it circulates above the speed limit at 60 km/h in a populated area (in this case the limit was exceeded at 63 km/h) the car will be retained a maximum of 14 days. The confiscation of luxury vehicles such as Bugatti Chiron sends a clear message that no one is above the law, regardless of its economic status. The Austrian government has been interested in selling the cars it seized, but as the driver claimed at the time of the seizure, he was not the owner of the Support, the procedure would be complicated since it would be necessary to decide whether the property of the owner or responsibility of the driver prevails. 2.5 seconds were enough The bugatti chiron is An exceptional hypercocheequipped with a 8.0 -liter W16 engine and four turbocharger that produces 1,500 hp and 1,600 nm of motor torque. With these benefits, it can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.4 seconds, so a pressure on the accelerator of just over a second would be enough to far exceed the speed limits of the ringstrasse. Its original sale price was around three million euros more taxes, so it is an exemplary sanction for whom They exceed speed limits And, without a doubt, a surprise for the employees of the municipal deposit.

The National Police had been using ia for six years to detect false complaints. His real reliability was very debatable

March 20, 2025 by usatoday24

In October 2018, the National Police published a press release in which everything sounded great. There was talk of A new artificial intelligence tool called Veripol that promised an accuracy of 90% when detecting false complaints. Six years later we have discovered that this promise was very debatable. The Technical Cabinet of the General Police Directorate He confirmed Civio that this tool ceased to be operational in October 2024, six years later. This decision, as this media points out, was not accidental. Three months before BOE was published with the new artificial intelligence regulation. In section (59) it is indicated to the polygraphs of AI as high -risk AI tools and the following is precisely indicated: “(…) It is appropriate to classify several systems of AI destined to be used for the purpose of guaranteeing the law when their precision, reliability and transparency are especially important to avoid adverse consequences, conserve the confidence of the population and guarantee accountability and effective resource roads. the risk of a natural person being a victim of crimes, Like polygraphs and other similar tools. “ Not only that: a group of law and mathematics experts from the University of Valencia highlighted In a study How Veripol was a tool that information was barely available, which made an especially complicated audit. Even indicating that this made them conjecture their conclusions, they stressed the situation was “very poor in terms of compliance with the minimum standards of transparency” necessary for the use of tools of this type. Do certain specific words are enough to detect lies? Civio conducted a study of the reliability of the tool. After analyzing 1,122 allegations of theft in Spain of 2015, Veripol’s behavior was singular: if a complaint contains the words “day”, “lawyer”, “safe” or “back” it is more likely to be false, but that probability increases If words like “two hundred” are used several times or “barely.” Veripol began to be evaluated in a pilot program in June 2017, and He won an award Investigation of the Spanish Police Foundation. There was talk of its success even In Scientific American. Little by little, its use was extended until officially activated in the aforementioned October 2018 nationwide. Its use was notable until October 2020 (about 84,000 complaints), while apparently in 2022 it was used only in 3,752 complaints, of which 511 were detected as false. In the development of said project The Complutense University of Madrid (UCM), the Carlos III University of Madrid, the University of Rome “La Sapienza” and the Interior Ministry of the Government of Spain. A UCM advertisement Point out How the initiative began in 2014, and began to be tested with apparent success in 2017. Preliminary tests, yes, were executed with a sample that The experts described as scarce. In this statement, it was highlighted how “it is the first time worldwide that a tool of these characteristics is developed” and that Veripol performed an “automatic analysis of the statements of complainants using natural language processing techniques and automatic learning, with a success rate of 91%, fifteen points higher than that of expert agents.” In the description of its operation the following was pointed out: “For example, it is known that in cases of theft, true statements are presented more details, descriptions and personal information, in the face of the exclusive insistence on the extracted object and the omission of details about the attacker or how the incident of the false happened. From this linguistic analysis, Veripol is able to create an effective pattern.” “In just one week, 31 and 49 false theft cases were detected and closed, while between 2008 and 2016 they were 3.33 and 12.14 in Murcia and Malaga, respectively. The effectiveness of the pilot study was 83%.” A doubtful reliability He Complete study of the University of Valencia reflects a debatable functioning of the tool. They indicate how Veripol designers claimed that false complaints in relation to theft are “extremely common” and the crime is “generally carried out by citizens who have no criminal record.” They have no clear figures, but even unable to estimate the real figure of false complaints “they suggest that it could be around 57%”, a figure that It rests interestingly in non -solving cases. In Damn.es They carried out in 2020 an analysis of the evolution of the use of veripol and indicated how “the fact that the total registered crimes remains constant as the veripol use figures decrease, can be an indicative that the algorithm It is not used so much among the police officers. “For some agents, they pointed out,” the program is not very precise “, and that although in theory it could work well, its application in police stations was complex because training was needed to do so. Algorithmwatch, a non -governmental and non -profit agency based in Berlin and Zurich, often performs algorithms analysis and AI systems to try to evaluate their reliability and validity. In October 2020 They evaluated Veripol’s behavior And his conclusion was already overwhelming: “It is not clear if it works as it is intended”. They also explained that lies detectors – which is in essence what Veripol is – have a long trajectory of bad operations. In this concrete algorithm, he worried for example how some specific words had too much weight in the decision. One of the agents interviewed at that time indicated how it was enough that the word “knife” was in the report to be considered true. We are therefore before a technological tool, in this case theoretically supported by AI, which raised doubts from the beginning for transparency about its true functioning and development, and that it began to be used without preliminary evidence being completely conclusive by the size of the samples. In recent times We have seen for example how the Ábalos ‘case’ served to demonstrate that There are many risks here and that it is necessary to evaluate well the application of algorithms before applying them in public bodies of … Read more

A spokesman for Huawei has limited himself to declare that the company is “investigating” what happened and that “it is committed to compliance with all the applicable laws and regulations of the countries and regions in which it operates.” The Eurodiputados involved could see the lifting of their parliamentary immunity if the investigation progresses, a process that requires the authorization of the president of the Eurocamara, Roberta Metsola.

Wisconsin man accused of setting fire to lawmaker’s office over TikTok ban

January 23, 2025 by usatoday24

MADISON, Wisconsin, USA — A Wisconsin man who allegedly told police he tried to set fire to a lawmaker’s office because he was upset with the federal ban on the social media platform TikTok was charged Wednesday with multiple counts, including one of arson. Fond du Lac County District Attorney Eric Toney filed a complaint against 19-year-old Caiden Stachowicz, charging him with felony arson, making terrorist threats, attempted robbery and criminal damage. property. If convicted of all charges, he would face a sentence of more than 50 years in prison. Stachowicz, a native of Menasha City, was scheduled to make his first court appearance Wednesday morning. Online court records indicated Judge Tricia Walker set cash bail for him at $500,000 and ordered him to have no contact with Republican U.S. Rep. Glenn Grothman or his staff. He was also prohibited from possessing any dangerous weapons or materials to start a fire. Records showed Stachowicz appeared via video call from jail. His lawyer could not be contacted at this time. According to the complaint, a police officer responded to a fire outside Grothman’s office in Fond du Lac around 1 a.m. Sunday and saw Stachowicz standing near the site. The officer said that while he was working to put out the flames with his fire extinguisher, Stachowicz told him he started the fire because he doesn’t like Grothman. The officer handcuffed Stachowicz and took him to the police department. Firefighters and police quickly extinguished the fire, limiting the damage. During an interview at the police department, Stachowicz told the officer that he bought gasoline and matches to start a fire in Grothman’s office, according to the complaint. He said he tried to get into the office so he could start the fire inside, but he couldn’t break the window. He then poured the gasoline into an electrical box at the back of the building and around the front of the building, lit a match and watched it burn, the complaint adds. He noted that he wanted to burn the building because the US government was shutting down TikTok and Grothman voted “in favor” of banning the social network, according to the complaint. Grothman voted in favor of a bill in April last year that forced TikTok’s China-based parent company, ByteDance, to sell its US operation by Sunday. Stachowicz said he believed the closure violated his constitutional rights. He added that he had participated in peaceful protests in the past, but no longer believes peace is an option, the complaint states. “Caiden said it was a government building and he wanted to cause a disruption and make a point by starting the fire in the building,” according to the complaint. “Caiden commented that he wished the entire building had burned down.” When asked if he expected people to be inside the building, he said no and that he didn’t want to hurt anyone, and he didn’t want to hurt Grothman either. TikTok went down in the US on Saturday afternoon, but the platform was back up and running hours later after then-President-elect Donald Trump said he would try to give ByteDance more time to find a buyer. Trump signed an executive order Monday after taking office instructing the U.S. attorney general not to implement the ban for 75 days. When asked to comment on the charges, Grothman spokeswoman Noelle Young responded by saying Grothman would call The Associated Press directly. However, the lawmaker had not contacted the AP as of Wednesday afternoon.
