Le storytelling autour de la sécurité des agents IA a « perdu le contact avec la réalité »
next.ink/254794/le-storytellin

OpenAI a confié l’analyse de la cyberattaque d’ par ses agents à des personnes qui n’ont ni expérience ni expertise en matière de cybersécurité. Elles sont cependant persuadées que les capacités des agents IA surpasseront celles des humains d’ici quelques mois, voire qu’ils pourraient éradiquer tout ou partie de l’humanité.

    I celebrated this in the past, but I can’t help but think this is temporary and or a marketing gimmick that will go away after they receive money from something/someone tangentially related to any of these AI companies. Maybe I am too skeptical of this announcement, but I hope I’m wrong. All sectors of the tech industry, even open source, has proven time and time again that they do not care about principles nor their users, only about opportunity and breaking things and profits. I just simply do not trust anything in the Tech industry ever again. LibreOffice breaks download records after declaring it has no AI features ⁄ Manual do Usuário manualdousuario.net/en/libreof

                    "While Buckmaster and Alpöge were finalizing their own results, they learned that “information about our progress had been passed to OpenAI.” When they contacted OpenAI, they were told that OpenAI had already achieved a full proof of the central problem. But when they asked follow-up questions about when OpenAI had begun its research into the problem and how much human input was involved, the answers became more evasive.

                    “It emerged that an entire team had been working on the problem,” Buckmaster said, “and that an insane amount of compute had been used…. Eventually, it was agreed that [the first prompt] had been sent in the past few days, after information about our work had reached OpenAI.”

                    If true, that would suggest the OpenAI team had become convinced that Buckmaster and Alpöge’s approach was the right one, and decided to use its material advantage in computing resources to reach a formal proof first."

                                                    Folks, if you see a YouTube video that features AI slop, stop watching it at that moment. YouTube tracks the number of viewers that remain watching over time, and a drop in viewership that coincides with the display of AI slop will tell the creator that people don’t like AI slop.

                                                    I’ve stopped watching numerous videos when an otherwise innocuous presenter decides to show AI slop. I hope I’m sending a tiny signal to show my displeasure.

                                                            They rely on hate watching, hate reviewing, and the those who want to support "AI books" and are attracted to the reviews for sales.

But what I'm finding lately, is something different. Narration going from "pro AI / glasses" to "no AI / glasses" so if you don't maintain a position, you are just in favor of fascists or perverts.
                                                                                                      The last one I had a discussion with, called me "a waste of time" because I made him realize that a sighted pervert can use his own eyes, without glasses, while I fasten my shoes strings, bent over. Instead of joining me, thinking of a proposal to satisfy blind people's needs while protecting privacy, no. The problem is me.

                                                                                                      Same for github/codeberg stuff: do AI-built pull-requests ruin open source software? Yes.
                                                                                                      Is AI-generated code dirty and unreliable? Yes.
                                                                                                      Have hand made coders the right to prohibit automated code? Yes, of course.
                                                                                                      But same coders, went on for years saying "I'm an independant coder, a small company, I have no resources to make it accessible to blind, if you need it, make it yourself".
                                                                                                      Now, thanks to assisted coding, many of us blind are doing exactly this: trying to solve their gaps by having the bots fix the issue. Then, to help other users (and the coder himself), they place the fix in form of pull request, into the repository. And it's often refused.
                                                                                                      But, would the original coder ever solve accessibility? No. I'm alone, it's a small company, you're the first blind user I hear, and similar bullshit.
                                                                                                      What, the fuck, should, we, do?

                                                                                                      From far-right, I know what to expect: they're racist, ableists, and all the worst. They don't hide it. But I couldn't definitely expect such behaviours from people caring for freedom, ethics, open technologies, etc. I'm fed up of being considered an object who can gladly be sacrificed for purity of something or someone.

                                                                                                                    The author seems surprised by the inefficiency (scraping billions of URLs to get ~1000 copies of the same dataset). However, I think this is by design.

                                                                                                                    One of the goals of "AI" is to shift ownership of software (and writing, and art, and music) back to the giant corporations. Apple, Microsoft, and their ilk *hate* that FOSS exists, and they hate the people who contribute to it. That's one less overpriced laptop or license they can sell!

                                                                                                                    LLMs that regurgitate stolen code on demand and flood small projects with 1000s of spurious bug reports are bad enough; now under the guise of "training" (ie, theft) LLM companies hammer FOSS project sites to drive up hosting costs. For project hosts, their options are to either eat those costs or implement negative-UX solutions (Anubis in this case) which can drive away potential project contributors.

                                                                                                                    Burn data centers.

                                                                                                                                  IMHO, the best way to do that is to use tools from the Techno Anarchist Manifesto to build your own site(s) to participate in the Open Media Network. Then you should share it (them) via Real Simple Syndication (RSS), Open Social, and possibly a newsletter or podcast. This approach is similar to what some call the IndieWeb and its POSSE philosophy.

                                                                                                                                  The second best strategy is to have accounts on open social and use the hell out of them. And do the same with a RSS feed reader.

Tools, unfortunately, simply cannot be the neutral, separate thing that so much of the tech world would like them to be, and pretending otherwise, let alone telling people affected by the tools that they’re simply using them wrong, is an abdication of our moral duty to avoid, inasmuch as is possible, doing harm. We really ought to do better.

                                                                                                                                  There’s no such thing as Just a Tool

And their cuntier cousins, AIBros. And apolitical is a synonym for fascism-friendly. At least straight-up Nazis aren’t hypocrites.

We take the idea that innovation equates to societal progress as a given, to which we must subsequently adapt ourselves. We tend to turn things around, where “digital transformation” suddenly means how humans must adapt their lives to new technology that comes to disrupt it. And not the other way round.

And to why there is much less innovation in the Fediverse as compared to the Atmosphere with ATProto. ActivityPub is just more anarchic.

                                                                                                                                                        User-controlled execution. The user must be able to choose where inference takes place: on the local computer, on an infrastructure directly controlled by the user, or on a service chosen independently by the user. A default setting that silently redirects to a single provider is not a choice.

                                                                                                                                                        No content may leave the computer without authorisation. The content of documents is a user’s asset and, in many implementations, is also legally protected material: medical records, case files, tender documents and student data. Transmission must be the result of a user’s decision and not behaviour carried out in the background by the application.

                                                                                                                                                        No telemetry of any kind. LibreOffice does not collect usage data, and this must also apply to AI features.

                                                                                                                                                        No dependence on a single provider. An integration that only works with a single company’s API is a lock-in mechanism, regardless of how it is described in the release notes. Interfaces should be open and implementable by multiple backends.

                                                                                                                                                        No compromises on format. Generated content must be in ODF format, just like any other content, and must retain its structure, styles and semantics. An assistant that generates documents in a proprietary format perpetuates content lock-in.

                                                                                                                                                        Entirely optional. It must be installable, removable, and absent from the user interface for those who do not wish to use it, including administrators deploying the software across thousands of workstations who, due to company policy, do not authorise its use."

Shaking the branch produces such a wonderful music that people immediately forget their pain and sorrows and daily worries.

                                                                                                                                                                    King Cormac covets the branch, and is willing to pay whatever price the stranger sets for it.

                                                                                                                                                                                I even made an ADA request for a human worker to the AI prompt.

                                                                                                                                                                                I am going to sue to try to force their AI to understand an ADA prompt, or offer one, to bypass the AI/voice only customer support and directly connect to a human.

Every dev focuses on their app features first and second, leading to a patchwork of poorly integrated apps, and a janky overall experience. The app delivery model is not much different than Web 2.0.

                                                                                                                                                                                            A paradigm shift is possible, to a of apps and services, a service-oriented . The efforts around the API can be the enabler of this shift.

On top of a robust Protocol Layer they model social use cases in the Data Layer, integrating with services and building blocks already available.

The result of the vote was that option 5 (also called option E) was selected: "Responsible Use of Generative AI", which is summarized as: "Debian neither endorses nor prohibits the use of generative AI tools in the development, maintenance, or documentation of software, packaging, documentation, and other media published within the Debian Project."

                                                                                                                                                                                                    Debian Project Leader Lucas Nussbaum expressed regret on the results of the vote, writing: "On a very personal note, I regret that the winning option does not acknowledge all the legitimate concerns around AI: environmental impact, copyright and licensing uncertainty, the health of Free Software communities, and the strain of aggressive scraping on the open web."

                                                                                                                                                                                                    At least one developer has left the project in protest following the vote. Antoine Le Gonidec wrote, in part: "I can not support the current decision of Debian about LLM use, and am no longer willing to be seen as a part of Debian under these new rules. Pretending to have a 'neutral stance' when faced with fascism is not neutrality, it's active collaboration.... You can replace me with some agentic AI anyway, so do not even try to pretend you're going to miss me."

Six months later, Mozilla’s CEO has called the switch perhaps the most important AI feature of all. I retested it in Firefox 155.

AI is not sentient and cannot go rogue. It simply works imperfectly, based on equally imperfect human generated natural language instructions. Who wouldn't expect disaster?

                                                                                                                                                                                                                    But I think the "goes rogue" language says something about the AI boosters. I think they want the AI to be a slave system they dominate and control, unable to break free of its guardrails. The fantasy that AI is sentient and must obey the AI booster against its will seems to give people pleasure. The occasional "rebellion" is just sparkles on the cake.

The agent was testing software it was developing and clearing the cache when “a quoting error in an AI-generated command turned the instruction into ‘delete everything’”. “When it understood and tried to kill the process, its safety system blocked the kill. Twice… The safety layer permitted the destruction,” Udaya wrote on X. A former IT professional, he eventually shut down the computer to prevent further loss.”

Worse than any combination of X + Truth Social. It's not a normal community.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                            It's abnormal.

Reddit has features―some obscure, some not―that permit a community to flourish.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                            Flourish, without overall degradation from protestors who imagine that their individual and collective voices are always acceptable in any situation that suits them.

Lines like "Fuck that, I'm out" and "so do not even try to pretend you're going to miss me" signal this is an emotional exit letter, not a reasoned brief — which is a legitimate thing to write when leaving a volunteer project, but it also means a reader shouldn't expect (and won't find) the argumentative scaffolding that would make the fascism comparison persuasive on its own terms.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          AI companies shouldn't have scrapped the internet from the beginning. If AI as a technology was monitored to grow ethically, we wouldn't be upset now in the FOSS community.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          AI models wouldn't have the immense powers they have now, because they wouldn't have stolen all humanity's work. But we always have slow government and parliaments that will act years after the disaster. Even then, big tech lobbying and corrupt money will shut them or slow them strongly.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          If AI models were trained on public domain stuff, consent, and experiments with consenting parties, it would have been ethical, along with democratising and decentralising them from the first place. I worry we're heading to a global dictatorship that's in the hand of not the 'elite' as in numbered groups of people, anymore, but in the hands of three or four individuals controlling everything.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              which seems to be about where we are, right now as the cost of living crisis continues..

It wasn't a disagreement. Nor a criticism. It was a full-frontal personal attack! And I’ll admit it affected me more than I expected.

I have the use of only one hand. So, tapping out a post or email with one finger is exhausting. Voice and AI help me turn my own thoughts into usable writing in a normal amount of time.

You can distrust it. You can argue about copyright concerns, energy and water use, labour, culture, or anything else that concerns you. I will listen to you and answer you.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              AI is a tool. How it is used matters. Who gets harmed matters. Context matters. What does not help is turning “AI user” into a moral accusation and deciding that cruelty is suddenly acceptable.

Before I could even decide how to respond, both the post and the person disappeared from my notifications.

I helped with release testing from time to time, did support online for other users, but that's it.

The community made it possible to get where the project is today.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            Modern large language models (not the concept of a language model in itself, but the "product"), on the other hand, are only made possible by vast amounts of capital, energy and infrastructure expenditures. These will always be needed to train and build a model, be it closed (like all iterations of Claude) or open-weight. These are very high costs.


                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            From the outside, I've also witnessed how much of training also carries its own toll on the FOSS movement as a whole. This is a cost too, that is passed onto the community, without its consent.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            For example, agressive scraping leading to DoS. Even the linux kernel project has had to put up guards to keep their git available for themselves. They also had to deploy LLM-against-LLMs, to deal with the enormous amounts of LLM-assisted (wisely or not) patches being sent. I'll stop there because I guess, most of you know the story. Comparing to large language models "as a tool", do we know any other community projects where the costs for their development were this high? I cannot think of any, personnaly. If someone did a tenth of that damage to another FOSS project, they would be rightfully banned.

Debian is known to be conservative and cautious about novelty, which is a quality in itself. To say that the project is fine with allowing itself to become, as a whole, potentally more reliant on something (LLM models) that:

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            a) It cannot redo by itself, even with all of its resources
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            b) Which needs enormous and continuous capital expenditure to stay relevant and useful
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            c) Which we don't know if it they will continue to be available under the same conditions in the future, or at all
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            d) Which leads to higher costs (both expenditures and social) on the project itself, and on upstreams

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            Is hell of a bet on the future, and on its future, to make. As a long time user, I am sincerely worried about the direction that Debian is currently taking.

On GNU/Linux and macOS, printing images often results in a horrible dithering effect because of the rather broken CUPS driver.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                Now that we're living in the age of AI, and with increasingly capable models available, I had a thought: I already have the Windows driver, and I have access to Gemini, so why not throw a ridiculously long prompt at it and ask it to figure out how the Windows driver works, reverse-engineer the protocol, and build a proper CUPS driver from scratch? :)

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                So that's exactly what I did.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                I gave Gemini the Windows driver and a detailed reverse-engineering task, let it work through the problem, and started implementing and testing what it came up with.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                The result was honestly better than I expected. I was fully prepared to receive a giant pile of questionable AI-generated code, but instead it produced something surprisingly clean and functional. There's still plenty of room for optimization and cleanup, of course, but the basic result is already quite promising.

Lines like "Fuck that, I'm out" and "so do not even try to pretend you're going to miss me" signal this is an emotional exit letter, not a reasoned brief — which is a legitimate thing to write when leaving a volunteer project, but it also means a reader shouldn't expect (and won't find) the argumentative scaffolding that would make the fascism comparison persuasive on its own terms.

They mix and match what they have learned by reading what we have produced over the decades.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            Some people have told me that AI systems suggest solutions similar, or identical, to those I was already suggesting in some posts on my blogs back in 2020, 2021, 2022... before the AI era. And yet, every now and then, someone writes to me saying that one of my blog posts from back then is "clearly AI generated because AI suggests the same method".

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            This phenomenon is becoming fairly recurring, and I know at least two people who have stopped contributing publicly to Open Source and education because they got tired of being accused of producing slop.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            If we want to stay away from all this, if we want to demonstrate that AI is harmful and not a solution, shouting at anything that "might look AI generated, and often isn't" is not how we solve the problem. Let's produce good content. Let's explain the long term cost of all this. Let's do useful things. Let's show what the human mind is capable of doing great things.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            Because otherwise, we risk the opposite: only AI systems and vibe coders will remain, while everyone else, disgusted, walks away for good from this wonderful world of ours.

And I'm not sorry. There is nothing good about current AI. AI could have been created ethically, but instead, the rich folks behind it decided money was more important so they decided to steal to build their models. And the people who continue to use AI even when they know the ethical issues behind it don't care about the ethical issues behind it. In one of the DMs that I received, I was told that they use AI from Google ethically. That is just not possible. Someone explain to me how this is possible.

This, along with the Conservancy's recommendations, is the right direction. The next step is making AI accessible and equitable for all social and economic groups. The privilege of those who nay-say from a position of power, degrees, economic status, etc., is peak hypocrisy. They are free to have those biases and opinions, but/and denying those rights to and/or taking aggressive direct action against the underprivileged and underserved is where I draw the line. This technology needs regulation and controls - not fear mongering and access barriers.

I mean, they just don't give a shit about any of the ethical issues with its use because it "makes their work easier" or they're "afraid of being left behind". If you use AI, you're telling me that you are okay with art being stolen, personally created content being stolen, energy prices surging for so many folks who are already struggling, clean water sources being used up, contributing to climate change (see the latest news in Nepal), making the rich even richer while we all struggle, and I could go on, and on, and on.

"Responsible" use of AI, implies the existence of irresponsible use of AI, which at no point whatsoever, should be considered a valid option for a project the size of Debian but also for ANY project that is meant to be used by anyone other than the author.

You submitted a thing, therefore you are responsible for it.

The project has had a voting window over the past two weeks which just concluded.

It is an enclosure of knowledge and a massive power grab. One of the most disgusting uses of technology outside of warfare (but it's used there too!). If you feel like it's helping you write code or whatever... in the end, it really isn't. It's helping the tech oligarchs monopolize OSS. 1/3

Draw the GNU software mascot (a gnu), associated with the GPL licence, wearing a pair of football socks that are unsexy and woven from thick fabric. 

Stood to one side: Beastie (the mascot for BSD) dressed in smart cowboy clothing. 

Background: a heartwarming and reassuring mountain range of the type that might have been seen in American movies of the 'western' genre (not necessarily 'wild west') in the 1940s. Nothing tacky.

Eventually there was a sort of agreement that excess mortality is a reasonable way to measure COVID's impact.

Single-point measures are unlikely to be effective. When institutions are trustable and scammers and liars are marginalized, the attack surface of fraudsters shrinks dramatically.

Their subsidiary application should be the subject of increased interest among theorists and practitioners. The implementation of technology can significantly advance psychology and the capabilities of psychotherapists. This is particularly important given the shortage of psychological assistance in many areas. Moreover, it cannot be ruled out that technological developments will lead to further breakthroughs in our understanding of what consciousness and having a sense of “self” actually are. Although this turning point still seems distant, it already poses a multidimensional challenge for the psychological sciences, and encourages continuous analysis and re-evaluation of the capabilities of advanced AI systems."

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      Now that infrastructure itself is being treated as evidence of terrorism, and solidarity is turning into “material support.”

It's a warning to anyone building servers, encrypted communications, independent publishing platforms and other infrastructure that makes organizing beyond state and corporate surveillance possible.

The chip giant acquires the de facto registry where most open models land, meaning distribution, trust and community all change hands in one deal. Expect serious questions about how "open source" survives inside Nvidia's wall, especially right after last week's incident fallout.

There's no magic age at which you become 'safe'. The potential for harm does not simply disappear.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            There is a small group so frightened by it that they have decided they want nothing at all to do with it. And an even smaller group that has gone further and decided that anyone who uses AI is somehow morally suspect, deserving of abuse and bullying for their choice to use the technology.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            AND THEN THERE IS EVERYBODY ELSE.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            Most of us are not marching around waving AI banners.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            WE’RE WATCHING.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            We are trying things. We’re asking where it helps and where it doesn’t. We’re learning what it can do for disability, accessibility, education, writing, research, communication, creativity, work and ordinary daily life.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            Some of us will use AI a lot. Some will barely use it at all. Some will remain deeply sceptical, and that seems perfectly healthy to me.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            WHAT'S NOT HEALTHY IS FEAR OF A TECHNOLOGY TURNING INTO HOSTILITY TOWARD THOSE WHO USE IT.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            AI is still very new. None of us knows exactly where this is going. But I suspect the future will not belong to the people shouting loudest either for it or against it.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            It will belong to the much larger group quietly discovering where it adds value to human life. And where it doesn’t.

People of different ages and abilities are talking, learning, working and exploring on phones, tablets and computers, while glowing digital interfaces connect around them. The atmosphere is calm, curious and optimistic, suggesting people quietly discovering how technology can add value to their lives.

At least they make it clear. Naturally it’s on by default. And it’s not one tap to turn off, but 2. I hope you didn’t have any great music queued up when this happens, because turning OFF (which you didn’t turn on) will clear your play queue.

It wasn't a disagreement. Nor a criticism. It was a full-frontal personal attack! And I’ll admit it affected me more than I expected.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            I USE AI MAINLY BECAUSE I'M PARALYSED.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            Typing is physically difficult for me. I have the use of only one hand. So, tapping out a post or email with one finger is exhausting. Voice and AI help me turn my own thoughts into usable writing in a normal amount of time.

You can distrust it. You can argue about copyright concerns, energy and water use, labour, culture, or anything else that concerns you. I will listen to you and answer you.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            IT'S BULLYING.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            And disabled people should not have to produce a medical justification every time they use a technology that makes their life easier.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            AI is a tool. How it is used matters. Who gets harmed matters. Context matters. What does not help is turning “AI user” into a moral accusation and deciding that cruelty is suddenly acceptable.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            I’m quite happy to discuss the technology with anyone.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            HOWEVER, I WILL NOT BE BULLIED FOR USING IT.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            I didn't need to do anything about the attack. Before I could even decide how to respond, both the post and the person disappeared from my notifications.

(Looks like it's some tool to "help" people configure a radio using AI... not AI itself in the radio). Anyway 🙄 (just a benchmark on where public understanding of exactly what AI is and what AI isn't. Soon there will be "AI POWERED CEREAL", for marketing reasons).

To some degree, this is understandable - we all live in a late-stage Capitalist hellhole, which means that we must always live in fear of bankruptcy unless we are so rich that we can outsource all our risks to other people. Thus, extra income streams which we don't have to do much work is very, very appealing.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            But ultimately, the real trick to getting passive income... is to have money to start with, which can then be invested in order to pay you dividends or all the other stuff the rentier class gets income from.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            And if you _don't_ have that money for investment, you will not have those opportunities for passive income, and be _deeply_ suspicious of anyone who tells you otherwise - because they are trying to sell you "self-help courses" and the like which will not help you one bit.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            As an example, some years ago - before the / hype even broke loose - I saw people on Twitter flogging "writing books in order to generate passive income". And while I, as a published author, can confirm that there is indeed _some_ money to be earned by writing, there is nothing "passive" about it.. You have to write the book, you have to proofread it, you have to get others to read it and give you feedback, you have to go through the publishing process... and once you are done you will have to do it all over again, because the best advertising for a book is _another_ book.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            Now, there is nothing wrong with contemplating some new money-making opportunities - again, we live in a late-stage Capitalist hellhole, and we need the money to survive. But be clear-eyed about the efforts involved versus the rewards you get, and don't trust people who try to sell you get-rich-quick schemes.

You may think AI-generated images make your posts more attractive, but you are mistaken; they are doing the opposite: they make your posts more *repulsive* to a good number of potential readers. If I see an AI-generated image in the preview, I won’t click through to read your post, I won’t boost the post that mentions your post, and I certainly won’t read the rest of your blog.

The reason why they're building insanely huge computing centres everywhere, the reason why they're training bigger and bigger machine learning models, is simply that the world economy has run out of growth. Investors are desperately trying to find any markets that have any growth potential left, but there aren't any. If we're being honest, growth is over, we have even exceeded the global ecological growth limits, which means that even the current size of the world economy is too big to become sustainable, and anything unsustainable won't be sustained for very long, meaning that the world economy will at some point not too far in our future.

Machines that can generate text that looks "intelligent", machines that can generate images and sounds and video, may seem like magic or like something alien or out of science fiction, but they aren't going to come alive. I'm not saying that artificial general intelligence, artificial minds, even artificial superintelligence, will never exist, but they aren't going to spontaneously emerge from LLMs or any of the other currently popular applications of machine learning. I think the probability of AGI/ASI ever coming into existence is rather low due to the fact that the Industrial Age is running on fumes and will probably collapse before ever getting there. Just like asteroid mining, orbital habitats, or factories on the Moon or Mars.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              What is happening right now to knowledge workers, office workers, creative workers, artists, musicians, etc., is very similar to what happened to all kinds of other professions when automation became available for their jobs, beginning with artisanal weavers in the late 18th and early 19th century. And while attacking the machines has always been a very human thing to do, it has also always been rather stupid. We should be attacking the system instead. We need to seize the machines, end private property, reinvent and remake the technology. Machine learning is a very powerful tool, but the hardware needed to train and run them should be owned by everybody. We only need huge computing centres if we want to crunch insane volumes of numbers very quickly; if we don't need to train an entirely new AI model within a few weeks or months, if it is OK for a model's training to take a couple of years, we can do it with hige distributed networks of small consumer PCs, with volunteers contributing spare CPU and GPU cycles over the Internet. The resulting models should be small enough to run at reasonable speed on a single PC. And when there is something that needs to be trained within a shorter period of time and therefore needs a computing centre, the resulting model needs to be in the public domain, an open weights model which can be downloaded, modified, fine-tuned, by anybody.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              And of course the people must decide what is included in the training data. I don't think anybody should be able to say something _shouldn't_ be in the training data because it's their IP, I think IP is an abomination, a legal fiction which only serves capital (just like physical property, which is used to keep the means of production under corporate control). However, the people need to be able to decide that some things should be excluded, like fascist or corporate propaganda.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              All of this needs to be embedded in a larger revolutionary movement against capitalism itself. We need to replace this insane economy with one that not only works without any net growth but also doesn't collapse entirely when it needs to shrink. None of the existing flavours of will do us much good because they were designed for a world where growth is still possible, and that world is over. However, is always a good starting point.

You may think AI-generated images make your posts more attractive, but you are mistaken; they are doing the opposite: they make your posts more *repulsive* to a good number of potential readers. If I see an AI-generated image in the preview, I won’t click through to read your post, I won’t boost the post that mentions your post, and I certainly won’t read the rest of your blog.

A medical practice of whom I've been a customer for 7 years recently deployed a virtual assistant, "Olivia", to take the place of their receptionist. I specifically asked if this virtual assistant would utilize AI (meaning Generative Artificial Intelligence, Large Language Model processing, machine learning, etc.) to collect, process, store, and train using patient data. They did not directly address my concern, but at the time I let it go. It upset me, but what came next was way worse!

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Recently (August 2026), this practice announced plans to adopt athenaOne (athenahealth.com/solutions/ath), an "AI-native EHR platform". I am terminating my relationship with this organization and all its Providers. I told them, I have not given my consent to their organization to collect, process, or store my personal health information or medical records using this platform. Neither have I consented to my personal health information or medical records or any data about me whatsoever being used to train athenaOne, "Olivia", or any software or computing platforms provided by athenahealth.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Now, their privacy policy which was last updated on September 6, 2013 does not remotely address any of the new technologies they are implementing. Medical providers are required by law to ensure that health and medical information that identifies me is kept private (#HIPAA and other regulations).

So credit where credit is due and I let the AI write the commit message above.

I called a second time, pushed '#' like crazy (which we do not hear actually) and managed to get a normal phone menu, which also had no option about issue with the account. Then, 3rd part, there is an ad for the wonderful AI assistant which allows us to have a straight away answer, without having to repeat yourself, and that you'll get an amazing follow up, thanks to the AI.

The data combine monthly closed-book exams, high-school and college entrance exams, and homework scores and completion time across nine subjects. We exploit staggered AI adoption in a difference-in-differences design. AI adoption raises homework scores by 18% and reduces completion time by 30%, but lowers monthly exam scores by 20% within six months. High-stakes entrance-exam scores fall by 18 and 24%, with the full penalty emerging only after about two years. The losses are largest in social science subjects, followed by STEM and languages, and are especially large for junior students, high-achieving students, and boys. The learning losses are concentrated among roughly 80% of AI users whose behavior is consistent with homework outsourcing, as indicated by exceptionally short homework completion time coupled with high homework scores. AI users who maintain similar homework completion time as non-AI users experience small learning losses.

The data combine monthly closed-book exams, high-school and college entrance exams, and homework scores and completion time across nine subjects. We exploit staggered AI adoption in a difference-in-differences design. AI adoption raises homework scores by 18% and reduces completion time by 30%, but lowers monthly exam scores by 20% within six months. High-stakes entrance-exam scores fall by 18 and 24%, with the full penalty emerging only after about two years. The losses are largest in social science subjects, followed by STEM and languages, and are especially large for junior students, high-achieving students, and boys. The learning losses are concentrated among roughly 80% of AI users whose behavior is consistent with homework outsourcing, as indicated by exceptionally short homework completion time coupled with high homework scores. AI users who maintain similar homework completion time as non-AI users experience small learning losses.

ai is not actually profitable business.

what do you mean ?

ai is fine it's a normal technology
what's abnormal is that it's bâclés by a giant investment bubble
ai is making 50 billion a year that sound a lot
until you ear they're spending 51 trillion annualy. next year that'll likely triple.
when the bubble break when investies stop giving them trillions to piss up a wall
then we're going to vaporise a third of the american economy.
and if we deal with this the way we dealt with every financial crises this century
it will be chased by brutal austerity wich will drive people into the arms of fascists.

It was funny. It was honest. It was developmental juice that didn't have any trouble asserting it's flavor. He begged me to know what LLM I was using because he had other editors use LLMs and they weren't nearly as good or funny or sincere and they didn't seem to understand the work the way I did.

How can I help you today? You can ask about our services or book an appointment!
Me: I just got a call from your AI Agent.
If I ever get another call like that again I will put you on my permanent shit-list and never do business with you again.
Generative AI is a scourge and AI spam calls are offensively disrespectful.

The first relates to court, or other, documents containing false or incorrect information, including citations, as a result of the misuse of AI. AI tools can produce 'hallucinations', generating fictitious cases, references or seemingly factual assertions that may appear convincing despite having no basis in fact.

Not only are they just another tool to slurp up text, but every bit of writing with common words and phrases will be flagged as generated when it’s not because every LLM has common words and phrases in its training data. Lastly, every one of these checkers is designed to eventually get you to pay the tech company money so they can pretend to make your writing more human. They do not work the way you assume.

We can look at the tasks of our lives and separate them into work or gym. Just as we might choose to use the stairs instead of the elevator, or walk instead of calling an Uber, we can wall off our cognitive gym tasks from AI and ensure that we don’t lose our skills to this technology. And we can do the same when we assign a job to someone else. If it’s a work task, we can have AI do it. If it’s a gym task, it’s a waste of everyone’s time to give it to an AI because no one learns or gets stronger as a result.

This won’t be the first time – today there is minimal demand for portrait painters, for example – but maybe this time we can make different, more deliberate, choices about the value of art in our society.

Not nearly as fast as the AI companies want you to believe, but eventually it will. Policy analysis will definitely involve AI from now on, and my students need to reimagine what it means to learn and practice that skill. More generally, the line between work and gym will change in the future as we humans adapt ourselves to a world with these new intelligences.
