Anthropic does not apply the same protections to the data labelers they use to clean their training data from the worst shit in the world. But those are just mostly poor people, what do effective altruists care about th em?

O que está acontecendo no Rio de Janeiro é um golpe muito bem articulado. A mesma Justiça que permitiu Garotinho se manter candidato agora anula sua votação para eleger Douglas Ruas. Esse é o PL, o partido que joga SUJO. Por isso precisamos que passe longe da presidência.

In Denmark a scientist plotted data and research findings into Claude, only to see Anthropic publish the findings as something the LLM had conjured up on its own. The theft of one scientist’s data and work translates into false claims about the model’s ability to generate research #ai #eupol

Meta’s ad ban on progressive Lula shows US #tech #billionaires aren't just aiding far-right figures—they ARE the transnational #oligarchy seizing power across borders. Big Tech, Donald #Trump, and jailed Jair Bolsonaro’s son Flávio operate as one global network targeting democracies. #Zuckerberg

Para além de toda a nossa ressaca, pessoal falou que a esquerda foi varrida. Assim, foi um baque, perdemos muito espaço no Senado. Mas sabem quem perdeu mais? PSD. Do Kassab. PSDB então, praticamente já era. Mesmo PP e União Brasil encolheram. Quem foi varrida foi a "direita democrática".

“AI is not a natural phenomenon, conceived by nature; it is a technological phenomenon, conceived by venture capitalists and programmers. As such, it takes no native, intentional action, and any action or motivation is driven directly or indirectly by the entities that have built it for a purpose.”

A montagem reúne seis posts da AFP News Agency no X sobre crises simultâneas ao redor do mundo. O primeiro destaque é a condenação russa à ação militar dos EUA na Venezuela, acompanhada de uma imagem de incêndio e fumaça sobre uma área urbana. Os demais posts tratam de tensões globais: a morte de um membro de força paramilitar no Irã durante protestos; a morte de 14 rebeldes maoistas na Índia em operações de segurança; avanços de tropas apoiadas pela Arábia Saudita no Iêmen; e o alerta da ONG Médicos Sem Fronteiras de que poderá encerrar operações em Gaza devido a restrições impostas por Israel. As imagens associadas mostram confrontos de rua, cartazes militares, veículos e áreas destruídas, compondo um panorama de instabilidade internacional.

We also looked at institutions & nations that are producing the most surveillance. Top inst: 1.MSFT 2.CMU 3.MIT 4.Chinese Univ of Hong Kong Top nations: 1.USA 2.China 3.UK If an institution, nation or subfield authors papers with downstream patents, most are used in surveillance patents. 6/
a, Institutions and nations that have produced the most CVPR papers with downstream surveillance-enabling patents. For each institution or nation, most patented papers have been used in surveillance-enabling patents. b, Percentage of patented papers used in surveillance-enabling patents, stratified by institution, nation and subfield. For each institution, nation or subfield that has published at least ten papers with downstream patents, we show the percentage of these papers that have been used in surveillance-enabling patents (vertical grey bars) (n = 13,804, n = 18,272 and n = 19,413, respectively). We found a pervasive norm: if an institution, nation or subfield authors papers with downstream patents, most are used in surveillance-enabling patents. (Vertical grey bars are frequently above the 50% threshold; orange line). Whiskers represent the standard deviation.

perguntas que a mídia deveria fazer hoje: onde estão as imagens das câmeras corporais de todos os policiais que participaram do massacre no Rio? Não foram usadas por todos, por quê? O comando da operação impôs o uso das câmeras ou se recusou a usá-las? Se câmeras foram desligadas, quando e por quem?
