Propaganda doesn’t need to go viral to sway elections anymore. That makes AI’s impact more insidious and harder to detect. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2024/05/07/world/if-ai-wrecks-democracy/

Tried Leiapix's automatic depth algorithm on an old 3D-rendered image of mine.

Nice result out of the box, with only a few minor errors here and there.

It is Monday, May 6th, and Stuff has Happened.

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 —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

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.

And with it, it will snow up the tech industry as a whole. ❄️

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.

Good riddance to what was a colossal waste of money, energy, resources, and any sane person's time, intellect, and attention. To even call these as exploratory projects is a disservice to human endeavor.

"Future of humanity", it seems. These guys can't even predict their next bowel movement, but somehow prognosticate about the long term future of humanity, singularity blah blah. This is what "philosophy" has come to with silicon valley and its money power: demented behavior is incentivized, douchery is rationalized, while reason is jettisoned.

AI-generated books on Amazon now have the potential to kill people, as they've moved into the realm of mushroom foraging. Guides have popped up like, well, mushrooms, packed with information that makes no sense and could easily be dangerous, illustrated with structures that are "the mycological equivalent of a picture of a hot blond with six fingers and too many teeth," writes Vox's Constance Grady. Here's more.

AI errors are hard for us to see.

“…the hardest kinds of errors to spot. They couldn’t be harder for a human to detect if they were specifically designed to go undetected. The human in the loop isn’t just being asked to spot mistakes — they’re being actively deceived. The AI isn’t merely wrong, it’s constructing a subtle ‘what’s wrong with this picture’-style puzzle.”

It's going to take a while before large-scale AI is profitable. It's a new technology and there will be failures before it finds its feet: https://www.theregister.com/2024/04/25/facebooks_value_plummets_as_zuckerberg/

Genau das, denn KI und Werbung ist selten bis gar nicht die Wahrheit.

»Künstliche Intelligenz vergleichen: Auch eine Frage des Gefühls:
Es gibt viele KI-Systeme. Aber welches ist das richtige für mich? Eine Frage, die erstaunlich schwer zu beantworten ist.«

AI models inch closer to hacking on their own:

Some large language models already have the ability to create exploits in known security vulnerabilities, according to new academic research.
