'AI can do wonderful things. But civil rights can’t exist in a world of hidden calculations. Just as with a lawyer or doctor, we must have AI that acts in our self-interest. AI needs a constitution — or more accurately, we need a constitution that defines access to artificial intelligence acting solely on our behalf as a civil right'!
We need an constitution for AI not an AI manifesto!
Just finished the re-watch of Person of Interest. Like 10 minutes ago. God damn what a show. Still teary eyed. Needed a good cry after some heavy existential stuff I’ve been going through. The show did not hold back.
From a somewhat campy start with interesting philosopical implications to it’s incredibly heavy, dark, and impactful finish. Glad we re-watched it. Felt more relevant than ever.
Actors: If you’re an American or have American friends/colleagues and family, encourage them (and I encourage you) to contact your representative and both your senators and tell them your needs in regards to the No Fakes Act: https://www.congress.gov/event/118th-congress/senate-event/335702
A very unimpressive Rabbit makes its debut. Boeing is running out of whistleblowers. Google would prefer AI over employees with morals. G7 countries are concerned about Israel's feelings getting hurt.
Eventually, people may stop writing, stop filming, stop composing—at least for the open, public web. People will still create, but for small, select audiences, walled-off from the content-hoovering AIs.
If we continue in this direction, the #web—that extraordinary ecosystem of knowledge production—will cease to exist in any useful form.
Generative AI has a problem with “hallucinations,” the lies its models tell. Through retrieval augmented generation (RAG), some AI vendors say the problem is solvable. But, as Tech Crunch’s Kyle Wiggers explains, it isn’t, at least not for all of AI’s hallucinatory problems. https://flip.it/7CaFbf #Tech#Technology#AI#ArtificialIntelligence

From the NYT:
„The prosecution just played the video Trump recorded on Oct. 7, 2016, when he acknowledged that he’d said the words on the ‘Access Hollywood’ tape and he apologized for them. But within months after being elected, Trump was telling people privately that he thought the tape might be a fake. If a similar tape came out today, there is almost no doubt that Trump would claim it was artificial intelligence and many voters would likely believe that.“
Have you noticed your Facebook feed being taken over by AI spam recently? @jasonkoebler has spent four months looking into it — what’s real, what’s not and what is a mixture of the two, creating what he calls “a disastrous website where there is little social connection at all.” Read more about his investigation over at @404mediaco.
A former Amazon executive has accused the company of telling her to violate copyright law in order to compete with other tech giants in AI, reports Business Insider.
As part of a wider lawsuit against the company, in which Viviane Ghaderi claims she was discriminated against and ultimately fired for taking maternity leave, Ghaderi says she was told to “ignore legal advice and Amazon’s own policies to get better results” when developing its large-language models.
