We no longer a Digital Omnibus on our hands, as the AI Act amendments were carved out of the original joint ("Omni-") proposal to fast-track them. What we have now is really a Digital Duobus :)

Just one of the nuggets you've missed if you haven't been at my webinar on general-purpose AI models last Friday. And I won't blame you - it's peak vacations season.

The webinar recording is now available - exclusively for my Patreon subscribers: www.patreon.com/posts/webina...

People have been asking me for a one-pager about my EU AI Act course, so here it is. The 5th cohort starts in September, and for this run I'm adding coverage of the new GPAI Model Code of Practice and AI-specific cybersecurity considerations. See the details and book here: aia.tiulkanov.info

Before you jump on the "thoughtless adoption of AI agents" bandwagon. This time it is about mailbox access, but you should think through a similar lens when granting any resource access privileges.

πŸ§“ Me 2,5 years ago: ChatGPT should be the tech that you don't trust that much. Verify all outputs before using them.

πŸ‘Ά Sam Altman, 6 days ago: "People have a very high degree of trust in ChatGPT, which is interesting, because AI hallucinates. It should be the tech that you don’t trust that much."

And, conversely, whenever you see yet another AI slop – in a post, in an email β€” send them a link to this post. Let them know how you feel.

You're making yourself look like a fool and you're also showing lack of respect to your interlocutors, to their intelligence and their valuable time. Stop this now, everyone had enough of this nonsense!

AI can't replace human judgement. If you are lazy with your AI use and think it doesn't show – think again. It does show, it is very obvious.

It hit a nerve with everyone in the chat. This isn’t about being anti-AI β€” it’s about being anti-mediocre, anti-noise, anti-fake-efficiency, anti-stupid. The novelty has worn off. The overuse is real. And the burnout? Also real.

"Then I go online and see local businesses using AI-generated images for their ads. I’ve hit my limit.

On the bright side β€” at least I’m spending less time on social media now."

Today, my fellow colleague expressed her frustration in our small group chat:

"I honestly can’t review one more document written by ChatGPT, or respond to yet another client comment also obviously written by a chatbot."

We know that training models on generated content causes model collapse (see autophagy).

So ironic: the more people populate the Internet with the results of these models put to their intended use, the less useful the internet becomes for training the next generation models.

I see your point, and you may be right in this reasoning. But I would not go as far as to use "fascism" as an accurate descriptor here. Maybe it is just me.
