Incredibly important report on AI training & copyright released today by the European Commission. It gets lots right, slamming the idea that creators should be required to opt-out of having their works used for free by AI companies. It says: - Generative AI must be based on

Here's a complete unedited video of asking Grok for its views on the Israel/Palestine situation. It first searches twitter for what Elon thinks. Then it searches the web for Elon's views. Finally it adds some non-Elon bits at the end. ZA 54 of 64 citations are about Elon.

like this is insane. why is nobody talking about this. i am going to become the joker

30 years ago, over 8,000 Bosniak men and boys were murdered in the Srebrenica genocide. Today, politicians will say "never again". But they are letting it happen, again, in Gaza. We remember all victims of genocide, and vow to build a world that respects the humanity of all.

Department for Science, Innovation and Technology Meta The Alan Turing Institute Given it's an open source scholarship funded by Meta, will the Llama models be used? Asking because they are known to be trained on pirated copyrighted material.

Everyone should ask him What's in the training data. Where did you get the training data. When did you get the training data. How often do you get new training data.

Wow who would have thought that electing a rapist would have complicated the release of the Epstein Files?

The 14th Street Busway has been a smashing success: faster commutes, fewer crashes, calmer streets. So why is Eric Adams blocking a similar plan for 34th Street?

If you don't know Dan DiIorio, he's the dev behind Luck Be a Landlord; the game that inspired me to make Balatro and influenced tons of other devs to expand on the genre he shaped His newest game Maze Mice just left early access! I'm going to be playing it all weekend

What’s terrifying about AI is that it replaces living with a simulation of living. Chatbot companions instead of real friends. Degree-holders who never studied and know nothing. In taking the challenge out of life, AI is destroying the very things that made life worth living.

I can't express how easy it would have been to hide the metadata if you're not incompetent.

Maybe a popular opinion all of a sudden to some people. But I put a lot of thoughts in what I post here and most of it comes from years of experience in machine intelligence.

The average prompter does not understand images, intent, or communication. They don't understand how to tell a coherent story through images. They do not understand subtext & why a meme is funny, only the surface-level signifiers. They use clichés unknowingly & accidentally

Yep exactly this: Learning next sequence prediction doesn't recover the nature of the process that generated that sequence.

This is the underlying hypothesis of people like Geoffrey Hinton and Ilya Sutskever. And it's why I'm not afraid of calling them fools. They claim that if the model can predict something, then the model understands the underlying world that lead to the prediction. This is false.

The EU AI Code of Practice is trash. After 3 drafts of this document getting progressively worse, the CoP authors refused to implement the most basic requirements. All organizations representing creatives & artists that were previously helping draft it came out condemning it.

Travel overseas and join a foreign army committing a genocide then return to the UK? No consequences. Holding a sign that says you oppose genocide and support Palestine Action? Arrested.
