NOTES TAKEN IN CLASS 

parental control  

sexual harassment ( harcelement) 

 the brain rot  = the phenomenon when your brain is not active because of social media and the internet and thus you become less intelligent

(to) weaken ( affiablir) 

i have trick up my sleeve ( j ai plus d un tour dans mon sac) 

a AI agent = a computer that works with AI

i want to work as an accountant 

ATTENTION 

 want to + verbe

as  an accountant ( comme comptable) 

it is the same as being on holidays ( as being car as est suivi d un nom donc aussi d un verbe en ING ) 

the currency ( la devise) 

your purchasing power ( le pouvoir d'achat) is increased two fold ( par 2)

ATTENTION 

3 fold ( par trois ) 

etc..

it is a lack of productivity and benefits for the company 

i would not engage in Quiet quiting because i have a sense of duty towards the company i work for 

 

DEBATE ON AI DOOM : main ideas 

PROS  

it can help employees be more efficient 

it is only a new technical revolution 

 we have to live with it and thus it is no need being afraid

we have to regulate it = to control it but it can be a very efficient tool 

so it is a mixed bag 

 CONS

it gets people being fired / laid off

jobs are disappearing by  droves (  par centaines) 

redundancy rate ( taux) is increasing rapidly 

it dehumanises human relations 

we can not control the rogue agents who are going to use it to harm companies and countries

 DEBATE ON : should we ban social media for under 18 s?

I DISAGREE 

18 is too harsh. I would favoir a ban for under 16s 

i do not think a ban would be efficient

Nevertheless we need to protect the youngest users

INDEED 

 i believe parent control is not efficient enough so i would favor a ban.

it is a crucial issue.

some kids need to be protected as some were tempted to commit suicide because of social media

i would condone giving a number to each person using social media in order to spot the peadophiles or the human traffickers very quickly.
