Europe does not like progress and new things. It has forced Meta (the Facebook company) to put plans for its AI assistant on hold in Europe after the Irish Data Protection Commission (DPC) asked the company to delay training its large language models on content posted on the internet. Europeans are basically primitive folk with weird traditions and beliefs. Pic.: The Mamoiada parade in Sardinia. Le maschere tipiche della sfilata di carnevale di Mammoiada sono quelle del Mamuthone e quella dell’Issohadore ( o Issocadore) . Il nome Issocadore deriva dalla “so’a (o soca)”, ovvero la corda usata per catturare gli animali. L’Issohadore è l’immagine del vincitore, mentre il Mamuthone rappresenta la bestia soggiogata. I tratti marcati della sua maschera rappresentano l’angoscia per la sottomissione, questi tratti così netti ricordano moltissimo le sculture africane. I campanacci sulle spalle dei Mamuthones vogliono accentuare ancor di più l’umiliazione a cui è sottoposto.
The typical masks of the Mammoiada carnival parade are those of the Mamuthone and that of the Issohadore (or Issocador). The name Issocador derives from the "so'a (or soca)", or the rope used to capture animals. The Issohadore is the image of the winner, while the Mamuthone represents the subjugated beast. The marked features of his mask represent the anguish of submission, these clear features are very reminiscent of African sculptures. The cowbells on the Mamuthones' shoulders want to further accentuate the humiliation to which he is subjected.
