@marcusosterberg mm kanske vi borde privatisera Skolverket också, för effektivare granskning av skolorna. En marknad där olika privata skolverk kan tävla om att locka till sig skolor. Varje friskola får välja vilket av de privata skolverken de vill bli granskade av!

@meraord jag håller med!

Nu tar vi fram "Samlade skaldeförsök" av Anna Maria Lenngren:

-----
Pojkarna

Jag minns den ljufva tiden,
Jag minns den som i går,

[...]

Uppå min mun var löjet,
Och hälsan i mitt blod,
I själen bodde nöjet,
Hvar människa var god,
Hvar pojke, glad och yster,
Var strax min hulda bror;
Hvar flicka var min syster,
Hvar gumma var min mor.

[...]

Skrivet för drygt 200 år sedan tror jag. Det var på nåt vis lite mer elegant språk på den tiden. 🙂

@JRepin @AV @EDPS@social.network.europa.eu @EDPS_supervisor @EU_Commission@social.network.europa.eu @nextcloud I agree, the EU must stop using Microsoft/Google solutions, as long as that goes on any talk of digital sovereignty is pointless. There is no sovereignty as long as EU keeps using Microsoft/Google stuff. Getting rid of Microsoft/Google dependencies should be a high priority for the EU.

Using #FreeSoftware solutions is much better, much more democratic and makes true digital #sovereignty possible while strengthening #democracy.

@nikolar @fiaewald jag läste det som "Värdelös AI-app blir försenad" -- måste varit en sån där freudiansk fel-läsning 🙂

@malveus just det, det är som i den filmen! Skylten säger plötsligt något helt annat 🙂

Those who live around northern Stockholm might know this sign, it's pretty big, you see it if you follow Norrtäljevägen into the city, just before you reach Roslagstull. It's below the old Roslagstulls sjukhus and Albanova, next to the new part of KTH called Albano campus.

It usually shows ads aimed at all the people in their cars heading into the city. This particular morning however, all the people in their cars got a special message about the badness of Microsoft and Google instead. 😄

Walked past this on my way to work the other day. It's like that The Sound of Silence song

"and the sign flashed out its warning..."

but wait, the sign did not say anything about the words of the prophets, instead it said "oops" and "Microsoft" and "your computer is low on memory, close Google Chrome" 😄

Okay, let's heed the warning from this sign: never use Microsoft or Google products, for anything, ever. Don't let them fool you. Don't but their "AI" bullshit either.

@neil not too late to start! I think you should at least have this one https://static.fsf.org/nosvn/stickers/thereisnocloud.svg

@neil none of them

@anderslindberg jag tycker det är väldigt fel att skicka vapen samtidigt som Sverige fortsätter importera rysk gas. Det betyder att Sverige aktivt pumpar in resurser till båda sidor i kriget. Det borde Sverige inte göra.

@vkc I think you did this one perfectly 🙂

@seanfobbe It would be much better to let students grade their own essays, as Phaedrus does in Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. 🙂

@seanfobbe hmm ok so we have one machine generating text trying to mimic what a human could have written, then that machine-generated text is fed into another machine that tries to process it, perhaps producing some other text as a result. It all seems pointless, nobody learned anything.

However it's not like nothing happened. Money was probably paid to Microsoft and/or Google (they are the winners here), and lots of computational resources were wasted.

@nixCraft

> Are you paying for the ai/robot service?

I guess we are all paying in the sense that those high-tech plagiarism machines are mainly useful for faking things, they are tools for fraud.

For those of us interested in communicating with other human beings, there is a price to pay in that we will be increasingly surrounded by machine-generated bullshit instead of meaningful communication.

The world needs things like honesty, peace and democracy, not auto-generated bullshit text.
