Agnieszka Serafinowicz<p><strong>OpenAI wyraża zainteresowanie zakupem przeglądarki Chrome</strong></p><p>Nick Turley, szef produktu ChatGPT w&nbsp;firmie OpenAI, zeznał podczas rozprawy w&nbsp;sprawie antymonopolowej przeciwko Google, że&nbsp;OpenAI byłoby zainteresowane zakupem przeglądarki Chrome, jeśli sąd nakaże jej sprzedaż.<br></p><p>Proces, prowadzony przez&nbsp;Departament Sprawiedliwości USA, ma&nbsp;na&nbsp;celu przywrócenie konkurencji na&nbsp;rynku wyszukiwania online po&nbsp;uznaniu Google za&nbsp;monopolistę w&nbsp;tej&nbsp;dziedzinie.</p><blockquote><p><a href="https://imagazine.pl/2025/04/16/openai-powoluje-doradcow-do-wsparcia-dzialan-non-profit/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">OpenAI powołuje doradców do&nbsp;wsparcia działań non-profit</a></p></blockquote><p></p><p>Turley, występujący jako świadek strony rządowej, ujawnił, że&nbsp;OpenAI kontaktowało się z&nbsp;Google w&nbsp;lipcu 2024&nbsp;r. w&nbsp;sprawie potencjalnej współpracy, która&nbsp;umożliwiłaby wykorzystanie technologii wyszukiwania Google w&nbsp;ChatGPT. Google odrzuciło propozycję w&nbsp;sierpniu, argumentując, że&nbsp;wiązałaby się z&nbsp;zaangażowaniem zbyt wielu konkurentów. OpenAI, które korzysta z&nbsp;technologii wyszukiwania Bing od&nbsp;Microsoftu, napotkało problemy z&nbsp;jakością danych od&nbsp;obecnego dostawcy, co&nbsp;skłoniło firmę do&nbsp;szukania alternatyw.</p><p>Potencjalne przejęcie Chrome, z&nbsp;jego 4 miliardami użytkowników i&nbsp;67% udziałem w&nbsp;rynku, mogłoby zapewnić OpenAI ogromną bazę użytkowników i&nbsp;możliwość integracji ChatGPT w&nbsp;przeglądarce, tworząc doświadczenie „zorientowane na&nbsp;AI”. Departament Sprawiedliwości proponuje również zmuszenie Google do&nbsp;udostępniania danych wyszukiwania konkurentom, co&nbsp;według Turleya przyspieszyłoby rozwój ChatGPT. Google zapowiada odwołanie od&nbsp;wyroku uznającego go&nbsp;za&nbsp;monopolistę.</p><blockquote><p><a href="https://imagazine.pl/2025/04/15/openai-wprowadza-gpt-4-1/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">OpenAI wprowadza GPT-4.1</a></p></blockquote><p></p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://imagazine.pl/tag/chatgpt/" target="_blank">#ChatGPT</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://imagazine.pl/tag/doj/" target="_blank">#DoJ</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://imagazine.pl/tag/google/" target="_blank">#Google</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://imagazine.pl/tag/google-chrome/" target="_blank">#GoogleChrome</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://imagazine.pl/tag/news/" target="_blank">#news</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://imagazine.pl/tag/openai/" target="_blank">#OpenAI</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://imagazine.pl/tag/proces-antymonopolowy/" target="_blank">#procesAntymonopolowy</a></p>

AnarchoNinaAnalyzes<p>This is an older article from February 2025, but I thought it might be worth sharing here in the wake of Trump's attempts to transform the civil rights section at the Department of Justice into a fascist attack dog that works only to further his authoritarian ideological goals. Within three weeks of Downmarket Mussolini's inauguration, the regime had already repurposed the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights towards prosecuting Trump's Christian Nationalist agenda, while actively sidelining investigations into racial abuse, disability access, and even sexual assault.</p><p><a href="https://www.propublica.org/article/department-of-education-civil-rights-office-investigations" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">propublica.org/article/departm</span><span class="invisible">ent-of-education-civil-rights-office-investigations</span></a></p><p>“We’ve Been Essentially Muzzled”: Department of Education Halts Thousands of Civil Rights Investigations Under Trump</p><p>"In the three-and-a-half weeks since Donald Trump returned to the presidency, investigations by the agency that handles allegations of civil rights violations in the nation’s schools and colleges have ground to a halt.</p><p>At the same time, there’s been a dramatic drop in the number of new cases opened by the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights — and the few that attorneys have been directed to investigate reflect some of Trump’s priorities: getting rid of gender-neutral bathrooms, banning transgender athletes from participating in women’s sports and alleged antisemitism or discrimination against white students."</p><p>I don't really think it's a coincidence that Trump and his Education Secretary Linda McMahon (a woman extremely active in the cause to privatize education and promote religious voucher schools) immediately prioritized the same winger bullshit at the DOE as the regime is now trying to force the DoJ's civil rights division to pursue; namely discrimination against white people, alleged antisemitism, and women's rights - but only in the extremely narrow context of keeping trans women out of women's sports and bathrooms. This is a Christian Nationalist government, actively working to install a Christian Nationalist political and social order on the United States by whatever means legal, or extralegal, it requires to do so.</p><p><a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Fascism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/LindaMcMahon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LindaMcMahon</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/CivilRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CivilRights</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/ChristianNationalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ChristianNationalism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/DepartmentOfEducation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DepartmentOfEducation</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USPol</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/AntiTransPogrom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AntiTransPogrom</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Racism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Racism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/DoJ" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DoJ</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/WhiteSupremacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WhiteSupremacy</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Patriarchy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Patriarchy</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/DisabilityRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DisabilityRights</span></a></p>
