Deutsches Ja zu Chatkontrolle? CCC & Co. warnen vor Grundrechtsgefährdung Vor der entscheidenden Abstimmung im EU-Rat appellieren NGOs an die Bundesregierung, bei ihrem Nein zur Chatkontrolle zu bleiben. Sonst drohe eine Katastrophe.

In a digital world, talking to sensitive sources is nearly impossible without encryption. The EU’s #ChatControl plan is an attack on accountability journalism - and a gift to surveillance

Hello, Bluesky! ☀️

We fund frontier research in Europe—bold ideas, unexpected discoveries and science that shapes the future. So it’s only fitting we’ve landed here. Sorry for being late.

Follow us for updates on ERC funding, research policy, and our grantees' discoveries.

Can LLMs replace human teaching assistants in grading homework assignments?

Moravec's paradox remains.
