Elon Musk, who has said the beneficiaries of federal spending are a "parasite class," runs businesses that have pocketed $38 billion in taxpayer-funded subsidies, loans and contracts www.washingtonpost.com/technology/i...

Mega wichtige Recherche. Die wirklich spannende Grafik ist aus meiner Sicht die, in der fรผr Engagement als Faktor kontrolliert wurde, denn nur hier zeigt sich, dass X tatsรคchlich extremere politische Inhalte prรคferiert.

๐Ÿค”Help needed: I've seen many studies examining hallucinations, biases in #genAI when it comes to political content. But are there any studies on how people actually use it for political information (across different demographics?)

๐ŸšจBREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

"Die Naziherrschaft baute sich ja รผber Jahre auf. Sie hatte Steigbรผgelhalter und Mitlรคufer. Und sie nutzte demokratische Mittel, um an die Macht zu kommen. Danach war es zu spรคt." Eine klare Mahnung in der gestrigen heute journal-Sendung des ZDF - die Friedrich Merz hรถrten sollte.

Zuck goes full Musk, dumps Facebook fact-checking program Meta will replace it with so-called community notes like on the X platform. The content moderation changes wonโ€™t be rolled out in the EU for now.

Meta has "no plans to end fact-checking in the EU", the company clarified and "will review its EU content moderation obligations before making changes" www.politico.eu/article/mark...

Spent the day talking to Europeans, and nobody can think of any precedent for what Musk just did to the US Congress. There is no businessman with that much power, the power to stop a routine spending bill, anywhere else in the democratic world.

A thought that might resonate with the community here: I think #Reddit is a totally understudied network. As a silent user I frequently think about the many things it can teach is about netiquette and decentralised governance.
๐ŸงAny recommendations on what to read on the topic?

Hallo BkueSky Community! Zum Einstieg ne interessierte Frage zum Medium: Nutzt ihr das hier anders als das Twitter von frรผher, wenn ja wie?
(Geht nicht um Tipps, wie man Reichweite erhรถht. Eher soziologisches Interesse)
