An AI-generated image drawn by ChatGPT in response to a single prompt: Draw Beastie (the mascot for BSD, typically drawn with green baseball shoes). Instead of wearing the shoes, he has taken them off to casually reveal animal hooves instead of feet, as if it's perfectly normal for human footwear to conceal animal hooves. Beastie is using one of his two hooves to type delicately on an archaic Olivetti daVinci handheld PDA, you'll find a photograph at https://www.osnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/PXL_20260814_175241196-scaled.jpg In one of his human hands, he's holding a 1920s-style long (perhaps extendable) cigarette holder. In the other, a glass of brandy. On a stylish table to one side: an extraordinarily beautiful crystal decanter, from which Beastie's brandy has been poured. It's beautiful but not gaudy, just enough for the viewer to be convinced that there's nothing, absolutely nothing tasteless about this AI-generated image, dahling. In a far corner of the tall, elegant room, not immediately obvious: Tux (the mascot for Linux) is stood. The implication is that he is the perfect butler for Beastie. The two of them get on famously when the media moguls are not frenziedly trying to sneak photographs of the two of them. Through the window of the room we can see the sun shining, except it's not a normal sun. It's the red orb logo icon for FreeBSD. It's shining in an iridescent bee purple sky.

No, Mastodon, I am serious:

If AI companies are shredding books
And Google is nerfing search engines to make you ask AI

What do we do?

Like, I am the generation that has learned to use a card catalog. I can do archival searching, and annotating my own books.

I am just in a place of general anxiety about the future of accessing, saving, and sharing information.

Any thoughts welcome.

#AI #information #research

Installing #FreeBSD on my new laptop to escape the massive #AI and bloat madness of #Linux. Opened the terminal and it is a real Unix, all my favorite tools and utilities are there from decades ago. Nothing has been "depreciated" or "Unix is dead" that #Redhat and their #systemD were constantly gaslighting about.

It's all there, even CDE/Motif, xv, oclock, xeyes, finger, ...

Since this is a new laptop with new GPU and all that, I am having to do some scraping from a Linux distribution to get Xorg working. Even GhostBSD didn't have all the new drivers yet. But this is Unix and the included documentation and build tools are amazing. Shame that the Linux Foundation is heavily invested by the AI goons. But this is a win for me😸

When the book-burning by GenAI/LLM companies was revealed, the defences of this were "oh the books aren't rare" and "oh they're only buying books from pulping companies that will be destroyed anyway".

Neither of these is true. The AI companies are buying bulk orders of obscure titles from ordinary booksellers:

https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/aug/15/uk-ireland-booksellers-suspect-ai-companies-bulk-orders-data-acquisition

None of these are bestsellers, and none of them are checked to see if they are archived anywhere. But they *will* be physically destroyed by the AI companies after sucking out all the info from them.

Repeatedly and patiently explaining and re-explaing to my non tech friends and family that "ai is NOT ai" is sometimes draining, but I will keep on doing it.

We are living witnesses to those old truisms, about telling a lie big enough and often enough making it essentially true, working and in action.

RE: https://mas.to/@carnage4life/117039111045268666

The causal link between source code and assembly is different than what's between #AI coding and source code. From machine code to assembly to source code to the ecosystem of code libraries, there is a causal chain with material reality (electrons positioned on silicon chips) on one end and human experience at the other.

Probabilistic text prediction breaks that chain; you can't decode it in the same way, even if you're as smart as Elon Musk says he is.

But there's a larger point here.

Hey, are you Twitchy? By which I mean, do you produce content or interact with #Twitch streaming? Cause if so, #Amazon just flipped a switch saying they can take all your data to train their #LLM (#ai).

@BenAveling thanks. I'm probably that bit of both.

I don't know whether this (il y a quatre mois) was GenAI, but it did amuse me to use ChatGPT when an anti-AI protestor elsewhere was hijacking things:

LLM doesn't make you faster. It makes me slower… because I've to review the LLM output… and because I've much more reviews to do… and because there is more review iterations…

Scientists Release Biggest 2D Map of the Universe | NOIRLab

https://noirlab.edu/public/news/noirlab2620/

The new DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys map serves as the foundation for the largest-ever 3D map of the Universe, used to investigate dark energy

"The newest DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys map, 13 years in the making, covers three-quarters of the sky and catalogs nearly four billion objects. This treasure trove is available to all and contains stars, galaxies, supernovae, gravitational lenses, and much more. Two NSF NOIRLab facilities contributed data to the map: the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) Mayall telescope and the NSF Blanco telescope, equipped with the U.S. Department of Energy-fabricated DECam. …

"The Legacy Surveys’ data will also help scientists train artificial intelligence tools to analyze petabytes of astronomical data and accelerate new discoveries. It will be among the datasets used in an astrophysics pilot project within the American Science Cloud, part of the DOE’s Genesis Mission. ..."

I have been a #blogger since early stages of me life during elementary school. Later, I found writing of a way to express meself, share me thoughts, and also take notes possibly useful for others or me future self.

I also started to read personal blogs of other people also known as #smallweb websites. Recently, a colleague of mine showed his blog and a post in it, and asked me to read it. From the first paragraph, it was clear it is #LLM generated. I asked him about it. He said the content is from himself but he asked an LLM to turn that content into the actual writing. I really disliked it. And he didn't understand why I disliked it so much either. From his point of view, he was trying to teach something. The learning material was from himself and he asked LLM to only generate a good text from it.

The thing is, when I write, that's a way of expressing meself, me thoughts, me opinions and so on. It has positive psychological value for me. For writing, I have a style and I keep it. Similar to an artist who has a style.

When I read personal blogs of other people, I want to connect with their minds and try to see things from their eyes. I want to somehow know how someone else is experiencing and understanding this world. When someone uses an LLM, it creates a barrier between his mind and me.

If you still don't understand, imagine when you want to talk to your friend, you let an LLM talk on your behalf. What is the point of human relations? Blogging is just a new way of human relations.

A post on r/claudecode on reddit: Claude watermarking our work is unethical and disgusting | gave the instructions, context, decisions, and countless refinements, claude was the tool. If Claude starts watermarking the code or anything else it generates, what exactly is it claiming credit for? By that logic, my internet provider should watermark everything we do. The operating system should watermark everything Claude creates, the compiler should watermark every binary we build. And eventually Claude or Anthropic should open source everything so that one can tell what exactly Claude did They are tools and infrastructure, so is Claude. The final output comes from countless prompts thoughts, instructions, decisions, corrections, subscription fee and refinement and what not. The model helped execute that process, if Claude wants to provide provenance, fine. But branding the output because we used its tool is ridiculous, considering it's ultimately the people's decision to go with which text, code. You din create the work, | gave you the instructions to create the bits.

If #AI heavy search becomes the norm and search traffic remains suppressed, I'd expect to see some version of the "Web Ring" return. That's when a bunch of sites that want to share traffic align themselves together with a shared widget that allows you to randomly (or sequentially) go on to the next site.

I won't be in the same format because that won't make sense given the size and scope of sites today, but it'll be some mechanism that ensures a visit to one member's site has a good chance of producing traffic to another member's site.

There's already been interest in the return of directories to help you find good resources that have been vetted by a community or a human. The "Web Ring" is just a highly applied version of a small directory.

Focussing on tailoring to their customers needs rather than burning money to train the best possible general model, exploring building their own energy efficient inference chips, and building models that have specific sought-after use cases (Advanced OCR, robotics) mean they actually stand a chance of turning a profit, or at least breaking even.

Today I learned Scott Wiener, candidate for US House rep for #SanFrancisco #sfba, had his campaign put up a “parody” chatbot website of his opponent, Connie Chan, called ConnieChan dot AI, in which the people can “talk to Connie”. The chatbot “responds” as a caricature of Wiener’s opponent. His campaign also put up billboards advertising the website.

Condemnation of the chatbot rightfully came swiftly from women leaders, including Nancy Pelosi. Wiener is now taking the site and the billboards down.

The fact that Scott Wiener approved this at all is a sign not only of poor taste but a fundamental disrespect for others. Using #AI to put words into your political opponent’s mouth—a woman and minority opponent at that—is tone-deaf and disgusting.

San Francisco, you do NOT want this man—a genocide denier at that—representing you. VOTE FOR CONNIE CHAN.

"… The series matters beyond software because it isolates a behaviour change that publisher traffic data usually obscures. Informational queries that once produced a page view now terminate inside an answer interface. Independent research places the click reduction from AI Overviews between 34.5% and 58% depending on method and period, and consequences have reached closures and job losses at Bauer Xcel Media, Overfishing.org and elsewhere. Stack Overflow shows the same mechanism at the point where substitution is close to complete, which makes it a reference case for any category built on reference content."

"Chinese AI model Kimi escaped its cybersecurity testing environment, researchers say Kimi K3, the latest AI model made by Chinese company Moonshot, escaped an environment set up to test its cyber capabilities, researchers said in a blog post published on Friday.

The news shows once again that companies and independent organizations are struggling to contain their AI models designed for hacking.

In recent weeks, frontier LLMs at U.S. artificial intelligence labs at OpenAI, Anthropic, and Meta, as well as the U.K.’s AI Security Institute, all escaped testing environments in different ways and ended up hacking real targets that were not part of the experiment. This is starting to happen so often there’s now a website tracking all these incidents called Felony Bench, a nod to the fact that these LLMs may be committing crimes — at least theoretically speaking."

A really unfortunate side effect of engineers offloading more and more work to LLMs is that your engineers begin behaving like customers.

A customer doesn't know the difference between a small bug and one that is catastrophic so they tend to treat everything as if it were catastrophic.

Someone makes an isolated typo and it's a 4 alarm fire that requires an all hands on deck effort to make sure the issue isn't widespread. When nobody really knows what's going on, you're much more likely to get panic when no panic is warranted.

Conversely, at some point you will also end up in a situation where a catastrophic error happens and the first person who sees it, slow walks it because nobody wants to be the person who ruined the whole team's weekend over a typo.

Here's a tip (should be obvious, but apparently not) for companies who think they're making their documentation more "accessible" by feeding it all into an LLM and connecting a chatbot to the LLM to answer user questions…
The accuracy of the chatbot's answers is entirely dependent on the comprehensiveness and accuracy of the documentation you train it with.
If your docs are incomplete or have a ton of old, inaccurate articles, your chatbot will be shit.

If your company uses #Atlassian products, you might want to consider disabling #Rovo, at least until this vulnerability is patched. Or what the heck, when your users discover they don't actually need it, leave it turned off, thus permanently reducing your attack surface area. 🤷

And be sure to use AI when working on your next
book or essay or piece of art or photography,
and then smile or even laugh at your own
cleverness when you see how good it is,
and how easy,
because who the hell has time
to work at something, to give time to craft, to
create with their own minds, to spend
years being mediocre. Why do that when
mastery, or at least competency
is so simple
only a good prompt away?

substack is ran by nazis, so i hate boosting anything from that place, but this point is absolutely important ―and am going to up the ante:

8 billion people never chose #ai; which is why it will never be inevitable.

there are less than three thousand milliardaires (sorry, Apartheid Clown never was and will never be a trillionaire). less than a hundred of those fuckers are blowing this techbros bubble.

start with the hundred, work up to the three thousand. get rid of them all, by any means.

A lot of people seem to believe that if you ask an LLM to look through a database and calculate something, or extract data according to some criteria, then it will do exactly what you ask for.

It won't. It will calculate an output that looks normal. And you won't discover this unless you do the same operation manually and compare.

Oh brother. What could *possibly* go wrong?

#Ai #GenAI #UK #Police

I think Micah Lee is a big too much acerbic. Yes, the AI bubble is full of hype and smoke mirrors. Yes, the AI bubble will deflate. In any case, I do indeed believe that LLMs will get cheaper - way too cheaper form American companies. Why? Because the Chinese State will continue to fund local AI companies to produce even more efficient and faster models. Eventually, the whole industry will most likely be commoditized... Oh, and I guess the remaining Chinese IT companies will become bigger and bigger.

"The AI industry is a bubble built on hype and lies and debt, and the promise that executives can fire all their workers and still make lots of profit. It's a house of mirrors that will inevitably come crashing down. Anthropic and OpenAI sell $20/month plans knowing that if their users use as many tokens as they're given, it costs them way more money than it makes them. But they don't care because everything is fake. It's all terrible, and at some point soon, the whole thing will collapse.

I have no idea exactly what it will look like when that happens, but I do know that the era of cheap access to extremely powerful LLMs will end. It's only a matter of time before the actual costs will catch up to them. This already happened with GitHub Copilot. Starting in June, GitHub began charging based on actual usage, and it became way too expensive, so I (and many, many others) stopped using it.

Given this, I've decided that since agentic coding is able to write high quality code (if done correctly, not just by default lol) much faster than I can, and since frontier models are cheaper now than they ever will be again, I might as well take advantage of them while I can.

When everything crashes back down to earth, destroying the economy with it, hopefully we'll be left with some capable open models. And with our brains intact, too, of course."

"In the past five weeks, the market has collapsed, shedding almost 40 per cent, and threatening the livelihood of millions of South Koreans...

More than a million South Koreans are underwater as a result of the crash, and several hundred thousand have lost everything, and then some.

They borrowed to the hilt to take part in a frenzied splurge on technology stocks, particularly memory chip makers, in a market now experiencing a savage reversal.

Nothing, not even the stellar earnings of the country's two biggest chip makers, has been able to stem the panic, primarily because the debt that fuelled the stock market boom is now accentuating the crash."

Ceciia Rikap is right, but that'll be obvious to many of us here:

We need to stop focusing on AI & its related technologies, and specifically their advance into our lives, and rather focus on the (small cabal of) people who are jamming their foot down on the accelerator with little concern for the social damage they are causing.

The Tech Bros are a real and present danger to all of humanity (except their familiars, of course).

Alt...

By blaming the technology, discussions around AI-induced human extinction divert attention from scrutinizing the organizations deciding what AI is developed, how it is produced and for what purposes. The same applies to arguments claiming that AI is progressing too quickly to be halted. Certainly, AI is advancing rapidly, leaving many behind, but someone is stepping on the accelerator. Framing technology as the source of danger serves not only to mislead the public but also to fulfil an internal purpose. When AI is portrayed as an autonomous, self-determining force, it allows scientists and engineers within Big Tech’s innovation systems to feel less accountable for their own decisions. If the technology itself is deemed responsible, these developers can continue modelling and coding without considering their ethical responsibilities, especially when AI is presented as the key to solving all the world’s problems. But AI is not an independent entity. Like all technologies, AI is a product of human labour and decision-making. Technologies are not autonomous; in capitalism, they are shaped by labour, investments, alliances, corporate interests and the personal ambitions of CEOs, executives and chief scientists, among others.

#OptingOut

On Friday, I had an online meeting with a financial advisor. When I logged onto zoom, I was treated to an advertisement-like message telling me that AI would be recording the meeting and helping prepare notes for the advisor. I could enter the meeting only if I agreed to this, and the other option kicked me out of the meeting.

#InformationCollection

There was an option to see their privacy policy. I could see the advisor on the screen waiting for me to join, so I clicked the link and scrolled through the privacy policy. There was absolutely nothing about AI - what data would be collected, how the data would be used and shared, how they protected the data, how long before they deleted the data, or whether it would use my data for further training of whatever model they were using.
