De vil gjøre oss så avhengig av kunstig intelligens at vi ikke er i stand til å klare å leve uten, og da må de først gjøre oss så dumme at vi ikke er i stand til å klare å tenke selv. Og de er på god vei til å gjøre det, godt hjulpet av kognitive lanterne rogues som Karianne Tung og Nicolai Tangen.
Ein demokratisk stat kan ikkje tillate seg å ha noko med tek-oligarkar, dvs. silicon valley-fascistar, å gjere. Alt dei sel må ut.

nigel farage tweet: The Bank of England is replacing Winston Churchill with a picture of a beaver on our bank notes. This is the definition of woke.
i, for one, am delighted that we finally have a definition of “woke”
oh fuck off

Cover of My Uncle Napoleon. Cover is green with a series of mosaic squares interspersed with cut-outs from a photo of a man with a sword and a very impressive moustache, the title and author, its translator given as Dick Davis and the information that Azar Nafisi has written an introduction.
Read My Uncle Napoleon by Iraj Pezeshkzad as my lighthearted book from a country associated with war by the media. A Wodehousian farce which according to Azar Nafisi is mandatory reading to understand Iran. It is certainly lovely.
A google maps view of the area around the Strait of Hormuz, with crude markup showing the 4 steps to successfully clearing the strait: 1. Build up speed 2. Hit Trampoline 3. Cool backflip 4. Nail the landing The boat is illustrated using a clip art yacht, and the trampoline is also just kind of floating there.
wait. wait. everyone hold on. i've solved it
Interessant ting for Oscar Westerlin å konstatere kategorisk, samme uke som (enda en) rapport fra AI-utviklere som slår fast at (en grad av) hallusinasjoner er en uunngåelig konsekvens av hvordan LLMer er bygd opp.
Spørsmålet om hvem som har mest rett er komplekst og mangefasettert og krever
Norsk bokbransje: Det er et problem at ungdommen leser bøker på engelsk, det er viktig å ta vare på det norske språket.
Også norsk bokbransje: Vi kjører KI-oversettelse på denne serien alle vil lese, det kommer ikke til å skape noen problemer, no sir.
Usual reminder that "tampering with the natural order of biological sex" is perfectly fine in some cases...
I have procrastinated the tidying away of a completed puzzle by rolling it up and setting it on a table. Then procrastinating further by photographing it. It creates a sort of painted tunnel through which a chair and a window can be seen. No puzzle pieces were harmed.
Taking apart a puzzle must be the most tedious activity in the world.
Nå brukte NRK #nyhetsmorgen 9 minutter (8:21-8:30) på å diskutere "Hvem skriver i kommentarfelt?", med en redaktør og en forsker, og det ble ikke nevnt med _ett eneste ord_ _muligheten_ for at _noen_ av disse kommentarene kan være maskingenererte (eller betalte) av aktører med skjulte agendaer. 🤦♂️🙄😒

Today, we're publishing Don't Steal This Book - a (mostly) empty book from almost 10,000 authors, protesting the theft of their work by AI companies.

“A.I. chatbots contain the sum of all human knowledge” is so egregiously wrong that I don’t know what to say.
Chatbots have been trained on corpus of digital(ised) text - ABSOLUTELY NOT the sum of all human knowledge. Paper, experience, embodiment, oral tales all missing.
These people are fools!

historical oil demand vs secnarios
On the second fossil fuel crisis of this decade (and likely to be worse than the last, fair to say), a few small thoughts
First: global oil demand would be so much lower without climate delay, fossil corruption, oversized SUVs, western overconsumption. Everyone who pushed these holds responsibility
I have a new shiny addiction. Thank you, @frkheggem.bsky.social cluesbysam.com
Happy international women's day. If you do nothing else in observance -- learn somethin' about a woman who is or was a badass. May I recommend a little museum bio on pioneering civil rights reporter, columnist and advocate Ethel Payne? www.womenshistory.org/education-re...
I like it because when it gets darker you kind of need that reward of an extra hour’s sleep to make up for it all; when summer is coming paying it back is balanced by the fact that … summer is coming.
Happy international women's day to all women tall or short, thick or thin, cis or trans! #iwd #international #womens #day
Photos of protest signs in Trondheim for International Women’s Day. One says «I hot 99 problems and the patriarchy is all of them». Others «Slutt å voldta for faen» (stop raping for fuck’s sake), «Nei til hallik-diplomati» (no to pimp diplomacy), «Seksuell vold brukes som tortur — stopp autoritære lederes angrep på kvinner» (sexual violence is used as torture — stop authoritarian leaders’ attacks on women), «Stopp Israels folkemord på Gaza» (stop Israel’s genocide in Gaza) & «Ja til 6-timersdag»(yes to a six-hour workday).
Happy international women’s day. But as Berit Rusten noted: there are 364 other days, too.
Håper alle har en god kampdag.
I år som alle år er hjertesaken reproduktiv helse og abortrettigheter, som kvinners frihet står og faller på. For alle andre rettigheter er knyttet til det når det kommer til å velge sitt eget liv, familie, utdanning, yrke. Mye arbeid gjenstår.
Cartoon drawing featuring a woman in bright red bloomers and a men's-style blazer and bow tie riding a bicycle in the foreground, and an old man with a pitchfork losing hat and pitchfork in surprise. Over his head are the words, "What it will come to". At the bottom it says, "Then they WILL be satisfied".
