This. There’s so much projection and promotion about what “Ai” might do when it’s just yet another manifestation of technological mythologies eroding rights, protections and freedoms of individuals.
“AI” will not replace you. A person making half what you do with no benefits whose job is the same as yours was but now includes babysitting “AI” will.

How can I change the world if I can’t even change who I am?” Salva Mea by Faithless. Well Maxi Jazz certainly changed the world for so many. Devastating news to learn of his passing but his words, his scope of the human world and his music will live on! Thank you Maxi

We are heartbroken to say Maxi Jazz died peacefully in his sleep last night. He was a man who changed our lives in so many ways. He gave proper meaning and a message to our music. He was a lovely human being with time for everyone and wisdom that was both profound and accessible.

In order to understand why ChatGPT can't replace Google Search, it's useful to understand the early days of web search and the role that PageRank played. 1/n

So many ethical and moral issues come to mind from this promo that are not easily addressed.

This has been an utterly sublime masterpiece of reflective creativity. #SoundscapeOfACentury for all its faults the #BBC at its absolute finest to inform, educate, entertain.

Starting now on @BBCRadio3 and @BBCSounds: #SoundscapeOfACentury – an epic, eight-hour soundscape combining BBC archive with the greatest music of the age. It begins with the iconic first words spoken on BBC Radio… Discover more: bbc.co.uk/soundscapeofacentu… #BBC100

This. The beginning of the end of the golden age of techno-libertarianism. The boy who flew close to the sun comes to mind. Twitter may flutter away, it was always doomed to fail, but it is for all of us to create a what next.
Friends, Elon sees Twitter as the “common digital town square,”but this “town" is not Our Town. It is Muskville. A public square isn't owned by billionaire megalomaniacs. It belongs to the people, ruled by democracy. Instead we obsess over a man we never elected to govern. [1/6]
Another welcomed milestone.
Another milestone moment 🇪🇺🖋️📃 The Digital Services Act #DSA was signed into law today by @EP_President & @MikulasBek Next step ➡️ publication in @EURLex before entry into force
This.
You can start by learning that "AI" is first & foremost a marketing term used to mystify & oversell a vast array of data-centric techniques that generally require resources only a few companies have & are frequently protected from validation & scrutiny by trade secrecy
Another mutation of command requested generation. If only we had the decision and influence tree of reasoning.
Fantastically informed, understanding of influence and consequences. The intent was to shock, create attention and spark debate, success.

Massive cling term impacts in multiple spheres of entangled sequences.
THREAD: The US government's new export controls are wreaking havoc on China's chip industry. New rules around "US persons" are driving an "industry-wide decapitation."
Culture war in its next sphere of influence and divide, claiming anyone that disagrees or questions “difficult and different approach” of a perceived “status quo” is the anti-growth coalition. Othering in sham economic policies which will lead to yet more downgrade #Trussonomics
Divide, displace and downgrade all in quest for singular greed of command and control. This isn’t out of the blue, the systems we have will keep on producing these symptoms until we tackle the deep challenges we face, not by rehashing what was, but understanding what is now.
UK markets have lost at least $500 billion in combined value since Liz Truss took over as prime minister trib.al/OcpmAAt
This. I can’t empathise how bob on this thread is.
1/The threat (as i see it) to Wikipedia and other open-source environments from states isn't vandalism, it's entryism leading to co-option. People secretly supported by states over the long term to make entirely legitimate edits, building up their reputation within the community
Having just read an extensive thread of stable infusion through the process of promoted Ai, this restores my belief in humanity. No matter the technological capacities we possess, the human capability of creating and enjoying the absurdity of human forms will never be codified.
