Once again, AI has miles to go before we can sleep with ease about it.

And those miles will be on fundamentally different kinds of roads. Currently, I liken AI to Reddit, in that there is some really great, useful stuff there, written by humans. I think if AI now as amplifier to whatever’s available on the internet, just…[Read more]

Have a great week!

Tell you what: I won’t use Al Jazeera as a source if you won’t use Jerusalem Post.

How do you distinguish between people and sources like me who decry the actions of the Israeli government and people who simply hate Jews. It appears to me that, to you, there’s no difference.

@Enco

The mathematics of famine are simple in Gaza. Palestinians cannot leave, war has ended farming and Israel has banned fishing, so practically every calorie its population eats must be brought in from outside.

Israel knows how much food is needed. It has been calibrating hunger in Gaza for decades, initially calculating shipments to exert…[Read more]

I would be in favor of AI taking the fuck over. Just go with it however it evolves cuz we are on a highway to hello.

I’ve been saying for at least a year, but it bears repeating, although it is just my opinion. The danger of AI won’t be the fault of AI, but bad actors. How Putin wants to influence it with misinformation is just…[Read more]

@Simon. The Pravda Network in Russia is a huge misinformation ecosystem.  It is mostly automated and produces up to 10,000 articles every day. The process is known as “LLM grooming”.  More to read here.

@Enco

Tell me: There is no starvation in Gaza?

Those who disagree. They are all misguided, wrong on the facts, or working in league with each other to misinform the world?:

Many organizations are expressing knowledge of widespread starvation going on now in Gaza. The situation is considered extremely dire, with some even stating that a…[Read more]

@jakelafort – First blush i punted. Second blush took me 4 or 5 seconds. Sad but true.

“Nothing to see here” says Netanyahu.

Israel’s leader claims no one in Gaza is starving. Data and witnesses disagree

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says no one in Gaza is starving: “There is no policy of starvation in Gaza, and there is no starvation in Gaza. We enable humanitarian aid throughout the duration of the war to enter…[Read more]

@Strega….Jake is correct, I read it on my phone which is not possessed….with a big screen and misread it 😉 My favorite exorcise this week is to bend over backwards for you so please don’t ghost me!

I was wondering if my subtle pun to Jake was noticed recently……I am a coward too when it comes to the midday sun….
