I guess I shouldn't be surprised, but I am certainly disappointed that the closed captions on the Black Hat videos, which I paid $2500 for are widely inaccurate and have not been proofread. I feel bad for deaf people who rely on these, as the machine generated ones are questionable at best. For free content I understand relying on it, or even for real-time content, but for recorded video that you pay a premium for this is unacceptable. #InfoSec #AI #Accessibility

Hi there, if you don’t want me to hit you, please carry this sign that says “please don’t hit me” with you always. Otherwise, I can’t possibly be held responsible if I hit you. Because it’s in my nature to hit you. I can’t live without hitting people. It’s just who I am and what I do. Thank you for your understanding in this delicate matter.

Sincerely,
OpenAI

I guess "the market" decided that it's just better to pay for millions of electronic monkeys and their typewriters, instead of providing decent remuneration to the Shakespeares of this world, eh? :blobcateyes:

To wit: a stochastic parrot is just a bunch of electronic type-writing monkeys in a trench coat. 🤔

So, Twitter :twitter: decided to pull a DeviantArt move and change its Terms Of Services to include anything you post there on their AI dataset, to re-publish your art and benefit from it without your consent or compensation.

:twitter: TIME TO DELETE YOUR ART PORTFOLIO ON TWITTER :twitter:

I will only leave my contact information there, nothing else.

So an author discovers someone is selling AI-generated books under her name on Amazon and then Amazon (initially) claims they can't remove them because she hasn't trademarked her name...

The books have been removed by now, but probably only because the author, Jane Friedman, went public.

Venture capitalists are parasites that deploy harmful technologies in the name of profit and control. Now they’re fueling AI hype not to improve the world, but to make a quick buck.

On #TechWontSaveUs, Edward Ongweso Jr. outlines why we need to abolish venture capital if we have any hope of creating better technology and actually improving people’s lives.

#Zoom just changed their terms and conditions to include using anyone's video and audio for training #AI with no option for opting out. You too can help train #deepfake s!

Living with a disabled spouse, I used Zoom a lot to get through the ongoing global pandemic.

What alternatives are out there for remote teaching/meetings?

Back in Feb, when Grammarly said they were going to think about incorporating AI, I immediately canceled my account and uninstalled. And now they've actually done it.

I'm sharing because with everything going on, writers might not realize this is happening.

I saw this meme recently which captures the problem so perfectly. People are afraid of AI as if it’s not just a formalization of all the unethical behaviors that are ingrained in our society already. #AI
Variation on the “trolley problem” meme. Instead of two tracks, the trolley is traveling down a single track and running over endless numbers of people, while a man stands at the controls and tells everyone “guys, the train might be sentient someday,” as if that’s the problem to worry about and not the human decisions that already put all the people on the tracks.
#AI


It's wild to me that there's currently so much panic & fear about what #AI *might* do to "destroy" humanity, yet - at the same time - so little attention to the way that human behaviors are already, knowingly, putting billions of people & global biodiversity at tremendous risk. 🌍 #climatechange

When #AI techbros train their #LLMs on people's works, these works are similarly removed from their individual context, "melted down" into the raw material — training data. Just disembodied words and phrases and sentences for the model to parrot later.

Historical and cultural and social context of these works is destroyed, melted away.

And it also happens without consent.
And it also happens on a gigantic scale.
And it also happens because techbros can sell the output.

I think we need to dig into what is happening here, which is that, when faced with a system that presents itself as a listening, eager interlocutor that’s hearing us and responding to us, that we seem to fall into a kind of trance in relation to these systems, and almost counterfactually engage in some kind of wish fulfillment: thinking that they’re human, and there’s someone there listening to us. It’s like when you’re a kid, and you’re telling ghost stories, something with a lot of emotional weight, and suddenly everybody is terrified and reacting to it. And it becomes hard to disbelieve.

Time to treat #AI like we treat faerie folk:

-Never give an AI your full name

-Never accept a gift from an AI

-Never eat food that an AI gives you

-Do not mention that you have a newborn child at home or that you know someone who has

-Do not step into an AI ring

@Mateusz @m0bi13 @look997 @mason O #AI prawdziwej, zaawansowanej będzie można mówić gdy zostanie wykorzystany jakiś wyjątkowy ludzki mózg, sztucznie podtrzymywany przy życiu, podłączony do superkomputera. Myślę że robi się takie eksperymenty, ale sa w ścisłej tajemnicy.


@Mateusz @m0bi13 @look997 @mason #AI w zasadzie nie ma się co obawiać, oprócz tego że parę zawodów może zniknąć, #AI nie ma wyobraźni, nie ma potrzeb którymi my ludzie kierujemy się i tworzymy. Ai to ciągle zwykły algorytm, nie umysł. AI nie ma też wiary, którą można porównać do błędów w oprogramowaniu, ponieważ wszystkim kieruje matematyka, a #wiara wpływa na wyniki. To dlaczego w mózgu nie pojawia się "niebieski ekran", a no zależy on od poziomu skomplikowania.

A few absolute shockers in the list of websites the Washington Post has revealed are used to train Google's generative AI tools. Apparently including the likes of 4Chan, Breitbart, and RT.

From WaPo:

"Meanwhile, we found several media outlets that rank low on NewsGuard’s independent scale for trustworthiness: RT.com No. 65, the Russian state-backed propaganda site; breitbart.com No. 159, a well-known source for far-right news and opinion; and vdare.com No. 993, an anti-immigration site that has been associated with white supremacy.

"The top Christian site, Grace to You (gty.org No. 164), belongs to Grace Community Church, an evangelical megachurch in California. Christianity Today recently reported that the church counseled women to 'continue to submit' to abusive fathers and husbands and to avoid reporting them to authorities."

@steelman @m0bi Użycie jakiś blobów (które były w rpi już wcześniej) to jednak coś innego niż zasadnicza zmiana paradygmatu prywatności: dostaniesz na płytce jakieś extra features, ale żeby ich użyć to chcemy mieć info jak/do czego ich używasz. To nie wydaje się mieć jakiegokolwiek związku z modelem biznesowym. W tej chwili np kodeki video, które potrafią korzystać z #gpu w #rpi tez są osobno płatne a nie mają wbudowanej żadnej telemetrii (o ile wiem...). Jaki jest problem, żeby dostęp do chipa #ai sprzedawać na tej samej zasadzie ?


#rasberrypi właśnie ogłosiło, że wybrało drogę "Internet of 💩".

W kolejnych #rpi będą chipy z własnościowym #AI od #sony , które będzie raportować do bazy "tylko" metadane.

Since the hype around AI accelerated, a lot of people have been looking for meaning in the text generated by large language models and tools like ChatGPT. But that doesn’t mean they’re intelligent, and there’s a real danger in thinking they are.

On #TechWontSaveUs, I spoke with @emilymbender about how these technologies work, why they don’t reflect how humans use language, but why we want to believe they’re talking to us.
