Breddin: Vitlíki - fyrimunir og vansar Vitlíki er nú eisini skipað sum serstakt málsøki í Føroyum

A very long interview (in Faroese) with me on the state of #AI in the #FaroeIslands on national radio. We talk about the ramifications of AI on small nations and how we are attempting to gather local stakeholders in an AI-forum.

AI in the Faroe Islands: a Path to Progress How the National Library of the Faroe Islands facilitated AI development and implementation on the Faroe Islands.

Ja, før eller siden. Jeg ved ikke helt hvor meget tid der går inden de lægges op. Jeg deler den endelige udgave når bladet har været i butikkerne noget tid. En engelsk oversættelse kan findes her: medium.com/@mohrolsen/a...

Den hedder “Ekko”, noget med en valkyrie…i bind 5 eller 6.

My article on #AI in the Faroe Islands, written all the way back in January, is finally being published in Faroese popular science magazine Frøði. Here is a local news piece in this current issue of the magazine. #vitlíki

Dependence on Hegemonic Tech: A Threat to Small-State AI Sovereignty Small states can build AI that genuinely reflects their languages, cultures, and values — but only if they retain control. This article…

Small states can build AI that reflects their languages, cultures, and values — but only if they retain control.
I examine the risks to digital sovereignty posed by overdependence on foreign platforms and argue that open-source, context-specific models are crucial to an autonomous AI future.

Hmmmm…

I was just sent the proof file for the upcoming issue of the Faroese popular science magazine Frøði. Included in this issue is my latest article on the current #AI developments in the Faroe Islands. It appears that the article is receiving top billing and a corresponding cover design.

Discovered I can use xbar (xbarapp.com) + a custom script to monitor my server's health right from the menu bar. Nerdy joy unlocked. Serverus Snape is thriving. 🧙‍♂️💻

My ancient Mac Mini is now a full-blown media server—thanks to ChatGPT! Streaming classic horror movies I’ve hoarded for years on every screen in the house. I dub thee: Serverus Snape. 🧙‍♂️🧟‍♀️ - Now on to conjure up new stuff to make with Serverus...perhaps a local LLM or something similar.

Gasp! Just learned my favorite comic creator @jordilafebre.bsky.social dropped a new book—I Am Their Silence. Brb, sprinting to the nearest bookstore like it’s a heist. 🏃‍♂️📚

Mod belönades i årets första Demos-utdelning - Nordisk kulturkontakt Flera små och innovativa projekt som vågar testa nya metoder för påverkan beviljades stöd i vårens ansökningsomgång av civilsamhällesprogrammet Demos. Totalt beviljades 20 projekt stöd till ett totalb...

20 innovative projekter modtog støtte på i alt 750.000 euro i forårets ansøgningsrunde af Demos! Fokus var på langsigtet impact og bred nordisk repræsentation. Vi ser frem til flere ansøgninger fra Åland, Færøerne og Grønland!

Just returned from an inspiring meeting with the Demos expert group at Nordic Culture Point in #Suomenlinna, #Helsinki. We finalized funding for Nordic civil society projects launching in early 2025. Grateful to support initiatives that challenge norms and redefine possibilities for our region.

Det er i hvert fald en meget diplomatisk måde at sige det på.

Demos - Nordic Culture Point For meetings and networks that strengthen the voice of civil society and provide organisations with opportunities to influence society.

Only a week until the expert group, consisting of members from each of the eight #Nordic countries, meets up in #Helsinki to decide on which civil-society focused projects will receive funding in the first half of 2025.
Deadline for 2nd half of 2025 is September 12th–so get cracking, if interested.

Last night I won another giveaway from @nearmintcon.bsky.social; the new tpb of Jeff the Land Shark by @kellythompson.bsky.social and @gurihiru.bsky.social – how neat is that!? This seems like the perfect book for my kids...but, not gonna lie, I'm quite fond of the little guy too.🦈
