"Sie können das Wort Metapher ja nicht mal definieren". Genau diese pseudo-bildungsbürgerliche Herablassung ist ein eher dümmlicher Umgang mit jemanden wie Tino Chrupalla, dem einzigen Parteivorsitzenden ohne Abitur & Universitätsstudium. Damit repräsentiert er Mehrheit der Deutschen.

A very exciting day for open-source AI! We're releasing our biggest open source model yet -- OLMo 2 32B -- and it beats the latest GPT 3.5, GPT 4o mini, and leading open weight models like Qwen and Mistral. As usual, all data, weights, code, etc. are available.

This could affect thousands of European and UK students. Just one of many issues where we should see a massive public outcry of our universities denouncing these authoritarian measures and showing solidarity with those affected. But so far very little.

Ungebremst treibt der Konflikt den Sudan in den Hunger. Und es wird kaum darüber berichtet. Es droht eine Katastrophe, wie die Welt sie seit der großen Hungersnot in Äthiopien 1985 wohl nicht mehr gesehen hat. Damals starben bis zu eine Million Menschen. www.sueddeutsche.de/projekte/art...

Kinder, die Heuschrecken fangen. Mütter, die Blätter kochen. Im Sudan hat der Krieg zweier Generäle eine Hungersnot ausgelöst, wie sie die Welt lange nicht mehr erlebt hat. Eine Reise in die Nubaberge...

Audrey Tang in Politico: “I’ve been working on bridging systems such as this for a decade now. It has been shown to effectively depolarize people, because it highlights the unlikely consensus, unlikely common ground, across people who otherwise have very different ideologies.”

Somehow I missed that last night, Jake Tapper said that the crowd was booing Tim Walz when he expressed his love for Springsteen. They were going "Bruuuuce!" How does someone from Philly not know that's what they were saying? Good grief.

Bertelsmann Stiftung have published an excellent visual explainer on bridging algorithms! bridging.reframetech.de/en Includes a side-by-side comparison of bridging and engagement-based approaches that does a great job of conveying how much less divisive bridging-based ranking could be.

Soziale #Plattformen könnten viel gemeinwohlorientierter sein - wenn die Inhalte nach anderen Kriterien sortiert werden würden 💡 In einer neuen Web-Publikation zeigt @felice.bsky.social, wie Bridging-Algorithmen zu mehr Konsensorientierung beitragen könnten 👏

In a draft research paper, Aviv Ovadya and @lukethorburn.com take a closer look at “bridging-based ranking” recommendation algorithms on social media. Can we bring the benefits of offline bridging into spaces that are already governed by algorithms? bridging.systems

Bridging Systems

Bridging systems increase mutual understanding and trust across divides, creating space for productive conflict, deliberation, or cooperation.
