RE: https://mastodon.social/@Lazarou/116071913286099306 If you'd asked me 5 years ago, I would've said "Nah, most people wouldn't be dumb enough to analyze hard data using a random text generator". And yet here we are. Everyone is fucking around, and so many still haven't found out.

@pluralistic @DavidReed Free markets are to economics what frictionless pulleys and massless strings are to physics: a useful tool for teaching and understanding, but not anything that exists in the real world

This is sometimes read as "look 'AI' isn't working". But the opposite is true. _This_ is what "AI" is _for_. Push down labor power, push down wages, make employment more insecure. https://www.theregister.com/2025/10/29/forrester_ai_rehiring/

We need a word for the equivalent of Gell-Mann amnesia but for #ai. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gell-Mann_amnesia_effect I've seen so many people say things along the lines of "Oh, I don't use #genai for [domain they're expert in] because it sucks, but I use it for [domain they're not good […]

The Torment Nexus is inevitable. Someone is bound to build it one day. Unless you give me personally five hundred quadrillion dollars so I can build the Norment Texus first.

Le rôle de l'humain payé à corriger les sorties d'IA, c'est notamment de pouvoir être blâmé en cas d'erreur. On retire à l'opérateur la maîtrise de sa tâche, tout en lui transférant l'ensemble des responsabilités. Ceux qui ont décidé de merdifier le travail au nom de la productivité n'ont […]

A great example of the failure of empathy in so many people. They cannot fathom a viewpoint different from theirs, and have to have everything explained to them in terms of their own experience. via @fesshole https://mastodon.social/@fesshole/115056810802283241

Has there ever been a clearer example of "Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it"? via @grrlscientist https://mastodon.social/@grrlscientist/114433446579245043

While I hesitate to encourage folk to run unnecessary queries, I do think the "made up phrase" + "meaning" google search is a great exercise in helping people understand what generative AI actually does.. I've found it hard to explain to folk outside tech that […] [Original post on glasgow.social]

All right Spotify, I'll admit, your cancellation confirmation page did make me chuckle.

When talking about "AI" there's a lot of chat about "hallucinations" but I think it is a bit misleading. Because it's _all_ hallucinations, some just accidentally true. https://tante.cc/2025/03/16/its-all-hallucinations/

Sure, unchecked null references are probably the most bug-prone feature of #dotnet; but `DateTimeKind.Unspecified` is definitely a close second.

Y a que moi qui confonds tout le temps Sébastien Delogu, Sébastien Chenu et Sébastien Lecornu ? C'est d'autant plus embêtant qu'il y en a un de gauche, un d'extrême droite et un du soi-disant centre 🫤

In the last months the epistemic injustice aspects of #ai have become pretty central to my criticism (which does not mean that political centralization/environmental impact are not massively relevant): We are deteriorating our own mental capabilities by poisoning them with input from […]

Silicon Valley has created a monoculture of mostly-white-guys unable to think differently than "build an app-advertise it-get traction-get VC money-repeat" , being funded by mostly-white-guys who are very afraid that they start to think differently. It’s very tough to get out of that bubble […]
