Dehumanization. One guy lets an AI agent talk w his parents in Australia. Another one let his agent buy a sponsorship, he could not pay for, in Davos for a speaking slot. How dumb can we humans be In the race for profit? Free reads

With the rise in AI slop, we tend to distrust more, even when it is true. If you factcheck w GenAI you risk getting an authoritative slop answer. Academics, journalists and others have a rising responsibility in fact-checking while big tech makes money on slop www.theguardian.com/global-devel...
ja det har du helt ret i. men håber du vil bruge europæiske tjenester så meget som muligt
Claude is not an ethical choice.
It is part of the war machine and may have been responsible for many deaths. Amodei follows Sam Altman’s playbook, of constant hype and overpromising (on AGI), and the LLM is illegally trained on copyrighted content.

Der er masser gode alternativer til US chatbots, fx denne dataethics.eu/da/dansk-cha... udviklet i Danmark #digitalsuverænitet

Companies try to influence what the chatbots say by providing specific information, lots of it, for the chatbots to soak up.
But it is challenging ad chatbots hallucinates, answers on the same question they suck up old content that might be outdated

Risikoen ved at bruge generativ AI chatbots i den offentlige sektor, som jeg forstår Danmark planlægger, er kæmpe stor. Se blot til USA, hvor Sundhedsministeriets chatbot foreslår borgerne, hvilke råvarer de bedst kan sende op i deres endetarm

The disgusting face of a brutal dictatorship:
Jimmy Lai, the Hong Kong pro-democracy media mogul who spent decades as a defiant thorn in Beijing’s side, was sentenced on Monday to 20 years in prison. 6 of his staff at Apple Daily got between 6 and 10 years.

Good read. Big AI tech is selling personalisation as something very useful, it might help you, it certainly helps the companies, as they suck up all your data and memory leaving you without control or insight. Alternatives in Europe have not followed suit

Low-cost and accessible AI therapy chatbots powered by large language models have been touted as one way to meet the need. But new research from Stanford University shows that these tools can introduce biases and failures that could result in dangerous consequences

Have we heard this before if you write ‘social media’ in stead of chatbots:
‘Generative A.I. chatbots are going down conspiratorial rabbit holes and endorsing wild, mystical belief systems.’

Yoshua Bengio is launching a new nonprofit lab to make AI systems act less like humans.
Designing Generative AI as humans is manipulative and unethical. They are machines and should look like, talk like and act like machines

Initial trial for one copyright theft to train GenAI is up 9th June! This case is Getty images trying to save the photo industry. In another The New Yort Time is trying to save journalistic content. And record labels’ try to save music copyright

We all have a digital ID app (MitID) developed by Netcompany The app only works w Apple and Google. If you buy a European open-sourced smartphone like Fairphone, Volla or Murena you are lost. They can send you by snailmail a small code-device (made in China) so you can work your way around
One man w big economic interests and two journalists, who love GenAI, predict that AGI is close. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/23/p...
It is wiser reading what true experts say about it - it is far far away - to the same news organisation here www.nytimes.com/2025/05/16/t...
Of course chatbots are not protected by freedom of speech as former Google-staffers from the startup Character.ai claim. It is so dumb and such a waste of time and ressources to discuss whether machines who unethically have dressed up as humans should have any HUMAN rights
apnews.com/article/ai-l...
Google and others w gigantic economic interests have hyped GenAI. Now they are hyping so-called Agentic AI, and we are seeing the beginning of a hype around AGI, artificial general intelligence, supposedly surpassing all human cognitive skills. It is bullshit, BS. www.axios.com/2025/05/21/g...
Sam Altmann says he doesn’t feel good about his relationship with technology today, so now he will pour money into the iphone-designer to make an AI gadget. Can’t wait to see how addictive that will be. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/21/t...

Listen to @karenhao.bsky.social in this podcast (25 minutes in) podcasts.apple.com/dk/podcast/h... She points to extremely important unethical issues w GenAI
Thanks @caseynewton.bsky.social for bringing in @karenhao.bsky.social - she’s a brilliant journalist and she’s right in her conclusions on GenAI. Funnily, neither of you - and especially not Kevin - backed her like you praise the makers of GenAI, especially Claude.
New test: OpenAI’s most powerful system hallucinates 33 percent of the time. That is more than twice the hallucination rate of its previous reasoning system.
When running another test, which asks more general questions, the hallucination rates were 51 and 79 percent.

Character.ai, who is being sued by a mother whose 14-year old son shot and killed himself due to a ‘relationship’ w one of its bots, wants chatbots (machines!) to be protected by HUMAN rights such as freedom of speech
This is where we are 🤦🏼♀️
