Trump’s ‘wage-weighted’ H-1B visa plan: Nasscom issues big warning – calls proposed move ‘legally questionable, economically flawed’ – The Times of India
Nasscom highlighted concerns about geographical and sector-based disparities in the new system proposed for H-1B visa issuance. (AI image) H-1B visa overhaul: Donald Trump administration’s proposed move to replace the lottery-based system for H-1B visas with a ‘wage-weighted’ system will be disruptive, Nasscom has warned. Nasscom, the IT industry body, has sharply criticised the US administration's proposal, stating it is legally questionable. It has also called the move economically flawed, and operationally disruptive! The proposed change in H-1B visa lottery system was announced soon after the Trump administration hiked the fee for this category of visas to $100,000 for new applicants.During consultations with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Nasscom highlighted concerns about geographical and sector-based disparities in the new system proposed for H-1B visa issuance.

Italian household survey data show that while awareness of genAI is high, usage is concentrated among younger, more educated and socially engaged individuals, potentially exacerbating inequalities.

If you wonder why I ask. If I would flag reviews to be potentially AI generated based on GPTZero (obviously an imperfect approach) and a 95% threshold, then 2 out of 3 of our reviews would be flagged.

October 24th was #InternationalDayofClimateAction. 🌍 What did Austrian online media report on the subject? Surprisingly little. However, the #AI-based SDGHUB dashboard shows that climate action remained a lively topic throughout October 2025. @ccca.ac.at

Yet another idea from the DfE, based on zero inquiry or understanding as to why so many children are absent from school.
Just more pressure for schools, for parents and children. Disappointing and awful in equal measure.

I totally get your point about AI being used in ways that aren't so great for the world. It's definitely something to think about! The fact that you're speaking out about it is awesome! Also, did you know Google says their new cloud-based “Private AI Compute” is just as secure as local processing ?

PrimVeterinary is an evidence-based knowledge platform created for veterinary professionals. Designed as a research companion for licensed veterinarians, it produces AI-assisted, evidence-backed insights and citations. It is not intended to provide veterinary medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment

And in this context describing something as AI merits a higher level of scrutiny given it practically means "formula that can't be explained in its own right and needs to be validated based on outputs".

If the target is 100% then everyone fails.
Question here is what do they mean by AI?
Asking chat GPT would generate nonsense. A machine learning model that sets a reasonable school level attendance target based on pupil demographics could be helpful. It's already done for GCSEs.

What data has been collected about the pupils? Who developed and runs the AI model? @theguardian.com
"The target a school is given will be based on attendance levels achieved by others in similar circumstances, including deprivation, location and pupils’ needs"

The disclosure says nothing of the kind.

Devs say the -opposite- of that, and then describe the reasoning behind the disclosure.

These disclosures (and generative AI, which caused the need for them) are quite recent, but ML, procgen, and AI as a concept are old tech used all over, before GenAI.

Ai tools are actually legitimately a better search engine, in terms of giving what you need based off description they can help in language learning because they can map abstract phrases better than normal translation/dictionaries, but they are also not perfect and also not sentient or smart.

The BBC Radio4 Today programme interview this a.m. with the chief exec of a UK-based co (didn't catch name) confirmed my fears. He projects shedding 30% workforce by using AI & plans to outsource as many jobs as poss to Thailand because their employment laws are more 'business friendly'. 🧵

My current hypothesis is that fully automated (LLM-based) AI workflows will not live up to the expectations.
