No algorithm can replace human wisdom and analysis.

But no algorithm will need to if we have already abandoned — wholesale — a millennium of critical reading and thinking skills.

I believe many execs (& many of their enablers) are evil & diabolical, & they only care about their bottom line, esp. , , ...:

"Paul Graham wrote an essay in 2010 about how the best founders are naughty because they break the rules.

Then he has an interesting anecdote about Sam Altman...

Interesting lens through which to view why OpenAI keeps showing up in the news for doing obviously bad things."

The #AIAct is the 1st official law regulating #AI in the World

But what is written on its 419 pages ⁉

Without opening it, I have asked #Microsoft #Copilot to create an FAQ from this law, and at this link you can read its reply 👇

Impressive, isn't it?

If I want to transcribe every new audio file that appears in a folder on my Mac using (Mac)Whisper and then run the transcription through a LLM using Ollama to clean it up, what are my best options? Do I have to write some Python code myself or is the readymade tools for this?

Compiling a reading list for grad students and need your input: what are the best readings on
(1) methods to identify and
(2) measure AI harms?

Self-plugs are always welcomed. Bonus points if papers include ways to "quantify" said harms.

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.

Users turned to social media on Thursday to complain about the outage, which is also impacting third parties, including the search engine DuckDuckGo, which relies on Microsoft’s infrastructure."

FYI - is NOT . 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.

If you only read one article this year, it has to be THIS by @Mer__edith, the president of #signal :

"AI is a marketing term, not a technical term of art. [...]
This is also why it’s imperative that we recognize mass surveillance – and ultimately the surveillance business model – as the root of the large-scale tech we’re currently calling “AI”."

"Amazon plans to give Alexa an AI overhaul — and a monthly subscription price"

Given that Amazon is going to start charging for the AI version of Alexa, I wonder if Apple has this same plan up its sleeve.

Maybe roll AI into the Apple One Premier bundle? Or add a tier, Apple One Ultra?

I've found that getting an model deployed locally was pretty difficult, but then I gave a try last week. It's awesome!

I was able to test out plenty of natural language questions and do a tiny amount of training on my home computer.

"Instead, the work these generators churn out look uncanny, smooth, and generally off in ways that are both obvious and not [...], it also struggles with statistically improbable prompts like “a horse riding an astronaut,” which still seem exclusively the province of human imagination"
