Interesting… notification in Facebook telling me I can object to my data being used to improve AI at Facebook and that if my objection is honoured then that will be the case going forward.
I submitted the form and just got an email saying they will honour my objection.
FYI - #llama is NOT#opensource. The license is categorically not open source. Among other things, the llama 2 and 3 licenses explicitly violate Field of Endeavor.
I see all sorts of blogs and marketing materials claiming things are "open source" because they used llama somewhere. Please do not take these claims at face value.
Just had to convince an #ai chatbot to let me speak to a human for my company's internal corporate it support desk.
It was, predictably, useless, just like every other automated support system I've ever interacted with.
But I earnestly wonder how much of that is because I, and people like me, independently troubleshoot and research before we try to bother a human, so we're just hitting the filtering function for people who refuse the read the instructions.
"There’s standard Silicon Valley hubris in the ‘move fast and break things’ mold, and then there’s whatever this is
"Trying to steamroll one of the most famous movie stars alive, one who is notably not afraid to take Disney to court (and win), and then lying to everyone about it ... well that’s another level altogether.”
First and foremost, we had more than 20 wonderful participants at #YoMos2024, ranging from Bachelor- to #PhD- level #students all modelling #ecological systems. Everyone had the chance to present their projects and methods and we had vivid question+discussion rounds afterwards. Although #YoMos seems like a niche group already, we heard about a bandwidth of methods including mechanistic #eco(-evo)-models, #SDMs, #climate and vegeation models, network models, #Machinelearning, #AI and much more.
He puts into clear terms what had previously been an unarticulated, creeping suspicion I had about #GenAI. Clearly there are many angles from which to come at what's going on with #AI#hype , but I appreciate this one quite a bit.
Earlier this week, Scarlett Johansson released a statement that said she had been approached by OpenAI’s founder Sam Altman to voice a ChatGPT persona. The actress, who famously voiced an AI assistant in the 2013 film "Her," she said no, but OpenAI went ahead and released "Sky" anyway — a chatbot which Johansson herself stated sounded “eerily similar” to her.
The actress has hired legal counsel and demanded an explanation, but could she take it further and does she have a case? @WIRED has spoken to lawyers to find out how this could all play out in court.

"Lavender applies the logic of the pattern recognition-driven signature strikes popularized by the US ... with the mass surveillance infrastructures and techniques of #AI ... Instead of serving ads, Lavender automatically puts people on a kill list based on the likeness of their surveillance data patterns to the data patterns of purported militants – a process that ... is hugely inaccurate. Here we have the AI-driven logic of ad targeting, but for killing." @Mer__edithhttps://www.helmut-schmidt.de/aktuelles/detail/die-rede-der-zukunftspreistraegerin
The student cofounders of an AI studying tool that won them a $10,000 entrepreneurship prize from Emory University have been suspended, for building exactly what the school had given them money to build.
The school’s Honor Council claimed the AI tool, which helps students to generate revision flashcards and practice tests from course materials, “could be used for cheating,” and that it had been connected to a software platform used by the university without permission — even though this feature had been mentioned in the competition pitch. @404mediaco has more.
Physicists developed a new method to prepare quantum operations on a given quantum computer using a machine learning generative model to find the appropriate sequence of quantum gates to execute a quantum operation. The study, recently published in Nature Machine Intelligence, marks a significant step forward in unleashing the full extent of quantum computing.
this has been bugging me a lot. like, yeah, there’s definitely AI scams out there. and yeah, a lot of people are using it from the wrong end, but it’s also clearly a substantial technology. time to realize that https://mas.to/@carnage4life/112484753548884371
my take on the #AI bubble — there will definitely be some sort of decline at some point, but it’s not going to be a bubble pop as widely predicted. ML has been generally growing for 10 straight years, at an accelerating pace, also for 10 straight years. to predict a bubble pop is to ignore a whole lot of data, including the idea of AI is basically the culmination of computing in general, since its inception. it’s quite a different case from blockchain.
