I recommend this episode:
"Mystery AI Hype Theater 3000, Episode 82 - Who's Responsible for "Responsible AI"?"
https://peertube.dair-institute.org/w/2By327fcUi38xBSGpWas84 #PeerTube
They mention this:
"How to talk about "AI" without adding to the anthropomorphization": https://buttondown.com/maiht3k/archive/how-to-talk-about-ai-without-adding-to-the/
Examples from there:
- Instead of "artificial intelligence", say "probabilistic automation".
- Instead of "AI agent", say "probabilistic, unverified software manipulator".

Your AI did not "go rogue"
it's just a program.
Your AI did not "hallucinate"
it has no brain.
Your AI did not "create" anything
it's just a plagiarism machine.
Your AI is not your "friend"
stop anthropomorphizing it.
It's just code. Exploitative, polluting, and unethical code

”Going into schools, I meet thousands of children a year and every day I become more certain that, if justice for all is to be our organising principle, AI is not for children and not for young people. … It risks halting learning before it can take flight. Studies show, over and over, that when we engage in AI-assisted learning we give up sooner. … We undergo not just cognitive offloading, but cognitive surrender: we forget what was possible.”
—K. Rundell

"Det var befriande att höra när språkröret Daniel Helldén (MP) i torsdagens partiledarutfrågning i Ekot stod fast vid att Sverige borde ha en mer öppen invandring, i stället för att förhålla sig till den främlingsfientliga åsiktskorridoren." www.sydsvenskan.se/opinion/huvu...

@ohyran Nice! If it has a hole in the right place you could put some flowers there, use it like a vase.

Hey, Free and Open Source Software developers! Do you want $5000 for making a library in your favourite programming language?
@Interledger is offering grants of up to $5000 for implementations of RFC 9421, "HTTP Message Signatures".
https://interledger.org/grant/open-payments-sdk
RFC 9421 is the essential authentication system for #ActivityPub 's federation protocol. Robust, secure and reusable libraries make it easier to build AP into more software and get more people on the Fediverse.
Please take a look!
"Digital cameras and wired earphones are back - and 'a bit more real'"
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cly599xlllyo
"It's been on the mind of Andrew Przybylski, professor of technology and human behaviour at the University of Oxford."
"Underpinning a fondness for more basic tech is "people's desire on a very deep level to be in control of their experiences," he argues."
👍 👍
MoneroTopia livestream starts now, via PeerTube!
Here's a good Monero Talk episode:
Naomi Brockwell on Reclaiming our Right to Privacy in the Digital Age
https://watch.monerotalk.live/w/f5Gh9szxFsuGENYyaCyJEE
She talks about how "it starts with us": it's up to "the people who know that this is an issue, who see how dystopian this is going to get if we don't course-correct, it's up to us to take whatever steps we can", which can be in terms of changes in legislation, litigation, or technology.
Do your part!

Första dagen efter semester avklarad, äntligen växla upp ännu mer i Valrörelsen!
Ikväll har jag knackat dörr med det här ljuvliga gänget i Vårberg. Det var intressanta samtal, slumvärden Wonna de Jongs fastigheter i Vårby. Det bristfälliga underhållet var påtagligt!

Out mapping local surrounds in OSM together with other members of @dfupdate using #streetcomplete
@Allinrep jag tänker på den där låten, "Hela året har jag väntat på: juni, juli, augisti!! för vindarna är varma då" 🎵
@gvwilson I can't be sure but it seems to be someone called Joseph Browning who wrote that on Facebook (10 July 2024).
