Are folks using #ai copilots for generating code successfully? Mine gets confused on syntax a bunch but it's a local model which is general rather than code specific. Like I wonder if I am prompting it poorly or something
Several companies are offering people in mourning a chance to chat with a “simulation” of a deceased loved one. Some say it feels like they’re speaking to them from beyond the grave, while others find it disconcerting and manipulative. Ethicists Tomasz Hollanek and Katarzyna Nowaczyk-Basińska from the University of Cambridge are the latest to voice their concerns over the risks of the "digital afterlife industry." Here’s more from Science Alert: https://flip.it/C6.06y #Science#AI#Ethics#Humans
Well, that's a first! My iPhone was reading a web story and #siri on a #homepod decided some passage was a request to play a song. Now #AI's are talking to each other? #Apple#funny
This is anecdotal, but I now personally know two employees of #AI-related companies whose valuations have imploded within the past month, and they are now looking to bail. One company lost 73% of their (publicly traded) value in a month. The other one is a startup whose founder (according to my friend) has “finally snapped”, and the company is now in freefall.
The fallacy of StarTrek is the assumption that humans will survive AIs, or choose to go on dangerous missions rather than send an AI. But then, humans think an AI is smarter than they are, which is why the AIs sent the humans.
Congratulations to Harvard University History of Science doctoral candidate Aaron Gluck-Thaler on the 2024-25 CBI Tomash Fellowship. We are thrilled to have Aaron as a fellow in the upcoming academic year! #ai#artificialintelligence#surveillance#science#tech#history

"California could soon deploy generative artificial intelligence tools to help REDUCE TRAFFIC JAMS, make ROADS SAFER and PROVIDE TAX GUIDANCE, among other things"
yeah... that'll end well 🙄
Google & Microsoft will be paid $1 for the services but handed a fuckton of personal information linked to taxes and car ownership. that in itself is worth billions to the corrupt techbros running this new AI-is-labor-without-people scam.
“In the past, it was really difficult to spot these things, because you can’t take samples from an image on the internet. But, with the new technology, it’s easy. You can just download an image and then in 10 minutes, you will know. I think that people should be warned.”
