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

https://i0.wp.com/darnellclayton.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/img_3730-1.png?resize=713%2C768&ssl=1Image created by @mray (Robert Martinez)So @miaq from Flipboard posted a video explaining to creators how Flipboard will work in the Fediverse.

Explanation on how the Fediverse benefits Flipboard@mia also posted that creators on Flipboard can apply to have their accounts Federated.

If you’re interested in getting your Flipboard account federated, you can apply here. Please note: we are currently only federating creators and curators who have two or more active Magazines and no trust and safety issues. (Flipboard on Medium)

I already applied, although due to my Flipboard account’s small size, I doubt I will get selected—but the worst answer I will receive is “No.” (I am @darnell which is not Federated yet as of this post).

I already have numerous accounts in the Fediverse, & for those wondering why, the answer is simple: I like to curate! 😂 Here is a list of my accounts on the Fediverse thus far:

  • @darnell 🕺🏾 Darnell Clayton: personal blog sharing my name. I originally created it to distinguish myself from other Darnell Clayton’s (one was in the adult film industry who I did not want others to confuse as me). Powered by WordPress
  • @darnell 🐘 Darnell (One): Primary status update & Fediverse Firehose—everything connects here (powered by Mastodon)
  • @darnell 🦁 Darnell (M.O.E.): My Misskey instance where I discuss Movies, Opuses, & Entertainment.
  • @darnell 📸 Darnell (Out Of Office): My Pixelfed instance where I show pictures outside of work (usually while traveling). Manually porting pictures from Instagram.
  • @darnell 💻 Darnell (Seize The Day): Various thoughts about technology (internet, software, etcetera). Powered by WriteFreely via Write.as
  • @darnell 👨🏾‍💻 Darnell (TeleVerse): Poltical, cultural & sometimes technological rantings into the digital cloud. Powered by WordPress
  • @darnell 🌍 Darnell (Africa): My opines about what is happening on my favorite continent. Powered by WordPress
  • @darnell 🧵 Darnell (Threads): personal status update where I can connect with family, friends & frenemies addicted to Meta
  • @darnell 🧘🏾‍♂️ Darnell (Creative Outlet): My Creativity site where I feature inspirational art, quotes, spiritual wisdom, music & videos.
  • @darnell 🔞 Darnell (Hard News): Topics not suitable for work. Covering some of the more violent & horrors afflicting humanity that need to be discussed, but not around children. Powered by WriteFreely via Write.as

Back On Topic (Flipboard)

Last year, in December, I suggested Flipboard federate magazines (I do not think I was the only one suggesting this) & to my surprise, Flipboard began federating magazines in February this year.

I believe Flipboard will become the largest instance in the Fediverse due to ActivityPub being activated by default (Threads, by contrast, will turn off ActivityPub by default) & potentially become a central information hub that could rival Google News.

I currently use @mastofeed (by @Barredo) to connect my Flipboard account to Mastodon, but Flipboard’s RSS feed does not reveal my commentaries when sharing) which can be confusing.

If my Flipboard account has ActivityPub activated, I could repost my thoughts from Flipboard to the Fediverse with my opinions intact.

"One of the assumptions built into these calls is that if the tech community would just nerd harder, a solution could be somehow magically found that preserved privacy and security while letting the ‘good guys’ have access. With all respect to the valuable work that law enforcement does to protect society, it’s equally as valid to as them to just police harder." https://www.mnot.net/blog/2024/04/29/power

It's a big compliment to say, it's EXCEEDINGLY similar to OnePlus' most expensive phone. There are a few differences worth examining, and we should finally wrap up that "controversy" over the different camera sensors being used.
