AI current developments don’t just happen. They are planned and without our input. This is why knowing help make better choices- we should all be able to steer the wheel.

I can't help feeling a "game-changing" technology that's going to "transform" the way we work wouldn't need to be sneaked into products without the user's consent. All I see is posts asking "How do I switch this f**king thing off?" Copilot's the U2 album nobody asked for, except it's not free.

Trust a well-intentioned billionaire to choose Week 1 of an authoritarian regime to tell us how "AI Will Empower Humanity" Though Hoffman admits his economic interest in the tech, his op-ed suffers from the typical foibles "good guy" technocracy. 🧵 /1 #criticalAI www.nytimes.com/2025/01/25/o...

The Apple II c was my first computer. I could spend hours on it with my sister, but when it really came down to it, she wanted to code games, and I spent hours trying to paint a picture pixel by pixel… in the end, we both work as AI consultants haha.

He visto a alguna gente de tuiter decir que bluesky no les acaba de convencer porque aquí todo el mundo es demasiado majo y no tiene la famosa picaresca tuitera. Hoy vengo a solucionar este problema. Tened un día de mierda, os odio a todos

Y’a rien comme de savoir lire… En conférence, je présente souvent la page “à propos” de ChatGPT. On peut y lire, notamment, que l’IA générale n’est pas tout à fait réalisable. Aussi, faites l’effort de tester ChatGPT avec des infos connues (maths, infos sur vous) et dites moi,vous l’utilisez encore?

"[G]enerating an image using a powerful AI model takes as much energy as fully charging your smartphone..." And video? OpenAI's Sora? Must be so much more... But as @melissahei.bsky.social reports, generating text "is significantly less energy-intensive." www.technologyreview.com/2023/12/01/1...

Making an image with generative AI uses as much energy as charging your phone

This is the first time the carbon emissions caused by using an AI model for different tasks have been calculated.
