J'ai la Carte Avantage Jeune (49 EUR/an) + un abonnement TGV MAX (79 EUR/mois).

Le trajet Paris --> Lyon demain va me couter 69 EUR.

Tout va bien.

How people think AI is going to kill them: terminator robots.

How AI is actually going to kill them: by destroying their habitat and drinking all their water.

But first AI will take away all viable employment

@aral so funny how people think like that

@aral

Don't count out the killer robots. They are coming along nicely. Just because they will be deployed by humans and not by SkyNet and won't be self-replicating doesn't make them not a threat.

All those "human in the loop" systems are being developed with the knowledge that it would be more profitable to take the human out of the loop at some point. Palantir drools about it.

Salut, algú sap on puc trobar una llista .txt de totes les paraules del diccionari #Català?

@softcatala

@retiolus @softcatala cerca el diccionari informatitzat de l'Scrabble d'en @jmontane
Està súper bé!

@retiolus

Sembla que el fitxer oxt del corrector ortogràfic de LibreOffice.

En el fòrum de Softcatalà he trobat

«he obert arxiu oxt d'Open Office amb un descompressor […] i allà està el fitxer de text amb totes les paraules.»

I mean, if an EU citizen’s initiative to tax the rich cannot get a paltry 1 million signatures (less than one quarter of one percent of the population), I guess we really must deserve this bullshit system.

You still have five days, sign this ffs:

Open source devs: Ey, i made something free for you!

Some person, somewhere: I hate you now.

@sebsauvage. J'utilise atlasOS (atlasos.net/), qui est grosso modo un script de debloating sur windows, pour pouvoir rendre mon OS de gaming utilisable et je dois avouer que windows11 est supportable.

kfem.cat torna a estar en marxa després d'uns dies de baixa.

No em pregunteu per quina raó, però Apache2 s'havia activat "sol" i, per tant, NGINX no podia executar-se...

THIS IS A HUGE ACHIEVEMENT:

The EU now generates more electricity from wind and solar than from fossil fuels.

@janrosenow So if we reduce our energy consumption, we stand a chance to actually be fossil free...

#Putin on #UkraineInvasion: #Europe will have to buckle down to me, they can't live without our oil and gas. #Europe: quick! move to solar and wind!

Thanks, #putin.

@janrosenow #Alt4You Graph of power generation in the EU from 2016 to 2024. The black line trending slowly downward represents fossil fuel sources, from approximately 1150 to 728 terawatt-hours. The green line trending upward more quickly represents wind and solar sources, moving from approximately 350 to 746 terawatt-hours. In 2016 green is just over one quarter of fossil, but in late 2024 green overtakes fossil. Source is Ember.

We're so fucked.

"Our analysis of a selection of questionable GPT-fabricated scientific papers found in Google Scholar shows that many are about applied, often controversial topics susceptible to disinformation: the environment, health, and computing. The resulting enhanced potential for malicious manipulation of society’s evidence base, particularly in politically divisive domains, is a growing concern."

@ct_bergstrom and that is just the beginning. Have you seen this? sakana.ai/ai-scientist/ (link to arXiv is also in the post)

craignicol

@ct_bergstrom funny how the people who have the most money in AI are also the ones who have funded or made money from disinformation 🤔

Antoine Alberti

@ct_bergstrom ok so not only do LLMs suck more energy than we can decently produce, and destroy the internet by flooding it with more BS than we can debunk, but its next target is now science.
Of course, LLMs are not a scient thing trying to fuck with humanity. We are doing this to ourselves in enlightened consent.

The way AI fans keep having to say “AI is not going away” makes me think there’s absolutely a chance it might go away.

@baldur if they do not find a way to make it more error prone (which they wont), it will go away, but it will do A LOT of damage first. maybe that damage is part of their calculation, but that thought leads into conspiracy worlds.

RenéWiersma

@baldur I recently heard the first company advertising (it was a radio commercial) with the fact that if you contact their customer services you get to speak to a real human being, rather than an AI bot. This, to me, is an indication that the AI hype is over the hill.

Simon Willison

@baldur I have several genuinely useful LLMs on a USB stick now, that happily run on my laptop. Llama 3.1 8B and 70B are two of them

You could shut down every existing model and I’d still be able to get some use out of those
