If they are an Apple user, there's a lot of convenience and IIUC good privacy in using their cross-device iCloud storage, which of course has lightweight editing via their Photos app if you can stomach participating in a tech giant ecosystem.

in case you were wondering what is the very smallest thing one could do not to obey in advance, I don't think regular citizens are required to call the US Department of Defense anything other than its official name

"Taken together, our findings reflect a societal shift in people seeing AI as being more human-like and warm, and increasingly distinct from other digital technologies." There's a lot to unpack in this analysis of public perception of 12,000 #AI metaphors, but it's a warning about anthropomorphism.

Great post! Wondering if you had the chance to see the paper I wrote with @annamillsoer.bsky.social where we argue for the term AI "mirage" over "hallucination" or other terms: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

β€œWhen you read and summarize a text, you create the neural connections necessary to memorize and apply the information well in an exam, experiment, or research paper. Generating it with a click is a harmful form of cognitive offloading and will erode these skills.”

Bingo cage fight concepts is a bit like the fabled "marketplace of ideas" but where collective wisdom is generated by a combination of dumb luck and naked brutality

Bingo cage concepts implies the existence of bingo cage fight concepts, where only the most feisty concepts emerge victorious

Consensus from PDX old timers in my orbit is GLEE-son. Could be the namesake family is GLISS-en, but we don't go around calling them Kaiser Salads just because olde Julius said it that way in ancient Rome do we?

Lab Day will not be purely filled with talks - but also show live demos, creative experiments, and community projects.

A collaborative day that’s part unconference, part showcase, and shaped by the ideas that animate our community.

Lab Day is included in your ticket localfirstconf.com

TIL that koalas join humans in the rare trait of having thumbprints. Relieved as that should help solve koala-based crime.

This image shows a figure titled Spatial representation of the 15-minute space syntax graph for Rome, Paris, and London. Labels denote the nodes with the highest centrality.

This study applies space syntax to quantitatively model the 15-minute city concept by using a street-graph where segments within a 15-minute walk of essential services are marked.
