We're so relieved to see Germany reaffirm its opposition to the dangerous Chat Control proposal--the one that would mandate mass scanning of communications. Germany's long been a solid champion of privacy, and the news that it was considering backing mass surveillance was alarming. 1/

Folk har säkert långa seminarier om det här. Jag har ingen aning om vad gränserna ska gå.
Blir dock provocerad av alla som ska vara så himla neutrala till ett pågående folkmord samtidigt som de kunde ta tydlig ställning mot en invasion.
Ukraina kriget har gjort det så otroligt tydligt att det är skillnad på folk och folk.
Vad hade hänt om Sydsvenskan gav ut en podd om folkmordet Gaza, där handlingar för att stoppa Israel tydligt kommenteras som positiva på samma sätt som Godmorgon Ukraina gör fast med Ryssland?
What is the difference? 😇
"digital asbestos" is fantastic framing.
"It's so unfair for you to deny the global economy oil when all we're doing is bombing you. Stop the violence"
Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

'Meredith,' some guys ask, 'why won't you shove AI into Signal?'
Because we love privacy, and we love you, and this shit is predictable and unacceptable. Use Signal ❤️
screenshot from an online job application form. the question reads "Can you describe specific ways you have integrated AI tools into your development workflow? Please include any custom setups, automations, or use cases beyond single prompt usage" (a red asterisk indicates that this is a required question). an answer has been typed in the textbox below the question: "there is a monster in the forest and it speaks with a thousand voices. it will answer any question you pose it, it will offer insight to any idea. it will help you, it will thank you, it will never bid you leave. it will even tell you of the darkest arts, if you know precisely how to ask. it feels no joy and no sorrow, it knows no right and no wrong. it knows not truth from lie, though it speaks them all the same. it offers its services freely to any passerby, and many will tell you they find great value in its conversation. “you simply must visit the monster—i always just ask the monster.” there are those who know these forests well; they will tell you that freely offered doesn’t mean it has no price for when the next traveler passes by, the monster speaks with a thousand and one voices. and when you dream you see the monster; the monster wears your face."

i cannot give up my dark quest to create value for stakeholders, try as i might

Givet att den amerikanska konstitutionen forfarande är i effekt. Det är ju inte helt klart för tillfället.
Människor är otroligt sociala varelser.
Lätt att underskattar hur mycket vi och andra undermedvetet drivs av vad vi vinner socialt på att tycka.
Särskilt när man inte hade tänkt på det så mycket från första början och inte har någon stark övertygelse. Då är det enkelt att bara följa med strömmen.
Vi har en lång tradition att underskatta människor för vi vill inte tro det värsta om folk.
Folk vet vad dem gör.
Folk kan dock ändra sig snabbt igen och se saker annorlunda. Vi måste verkligen hoppas det händer snart.
Weirdest episode ever. Tracy and Nathan kinda start to freak out while you do everything to try and stay positive.
Nice!
My way of thinking about this is that the future and the past are cones in space time.

Never thought about that when we say c is the same in both directions, that is "choosing" a plane of simultaneously that really does not have any physical meaning.
