Sendte min klage i dag. Hvis du ikke er fornøyd med de valgene NRK har tatt i det siste, kan det være lurt å gjøre det samme.

"In a landmark study, OpenAI researchers reveal that large language models will always produce plausible but false outputs, even with perfect data, due to fundamental statistical and computational limits." www.computerworld.com/article/4059...

I think anyone interested in #SciComm should be paying attention to the discourse around why SciShow's video on knitting and physics has bombed so badly. There have been many good video responses, & JillianEve's remake of the video is especially good: www.youtube.com/watch?v=5btQ...

Humaniora er studiet av det menneskeskapte. Data og teknologi er også noe menneskeskapt. "Humaniora gir oss innsikten i hvorfor og hvordan teknologi bør brukes. Uten denne balansen risikerer vi at kulturarven reduseres til datasett, løsrevet fra de menneskelige erfaringene som gir den verdi."

Hele denne tråden. Hele denne samtalen.

Herregud, jeg visste ikke om dette problemet. Nå ser jeg at jeg bare har vært heldig, for jeg fikk permanent oppholdstillatelse før jeg fikk eksterne sensuroppgaver. Det er en helt uakseptabel situasjon for forskere fra utlandet som bor og jobber (og vil bli) i Norge.

Which violence is framed by mainstream society as unacceptable and which is treated with indifference or applause is always a reflection of who holds political power

Amazing how those democratic lawmakers who were hunted down in their homes in the middle of the night in Minnesota weren’t a watershed moment of political violence, huh?

BIG BIG DAY! Pantomime is out TODAY in the US! 🎉 Don't worry UK readers, it will be coming to shelves near you on Thursday💜 Let's fly, me lovelies🎪

Høstens DH-foredragsrekke (arrangert av Digital Lab på UiB og D-lab på NTNU) begynner å ta form! Marit Sjelmo fra NTNU holder foredraget 'Hva kan litterære reiseskildringer fortelle oss om 1800-tallets Norge?' 25. september 11.30-12.00: www.uib.no/digitallab/1...

jeg vil ikke ha lavere skatt, jeg vil ha bedre og billigere kollektiv, en velferdsstat som ikke demonteres, et helsevesen der de ansatte har tid til pauser, en skole som er så godt finansiert at vi har råd til skolemat, skolebiblioteker og alle klassesettene med litteratur som vi faktisk trenger

@serenadyer.bsky.social & I are thrilled to announce that our edited book is out now! It focuses on how processes of making, experimenting, experiencing, & reconstructing illuminate understandings around manual labour & material life. Overview 🧵 on 📕 chapters & our contributors! 👇

Oh no

It's always been a crime against humanity to bomb a hospital, no matter who you thought was hiding underneath. But in these repeated horrors committed by the Israeli military, the official excuses are getting more breathtaking.

Navs statistikksjef publiserte dette, om innvandreres betydning for økonomien, på Linkedin i formiddag.

I keep thinking about Høyre's proposal to raise the income req. for family immigration to an annual salary of 660,000 NOK and how this would have shut me out of coming to Norway to do my PhD (since my spouse wouldn't have been able to join me). PhDs don't make that much. www.nrk.no/norge/hoyre-...

Norway needs to contend with the fact that we consistently seem to have extreme right wing terror attacks. The call is coming from inside the house.

Har vært på NTNU Dragvoll i dag, der jeg skal vikariere som universitetsbibliotekar fra september til februar. Hyggelig gjeng, og jeg gleder meg til å komme i gang!

The Royal School of Needlework is hosting its first conference and though in-person tickets are sold out you can still join us virtually! I’ve put an embarrassing amount of work into this so hopefully it’ll be a fun and informative conference for all! royal-needlework.org.uk/events-exhib...

Here's a new one for those of you interested in #LinguisticLandscapes

Hey, as a librarian I need to tell you: Our funding depends on usage. So go ahead and check out that book even if you don't think you'll finish it. No one will know. Check out that DVD even though you might not like it. Get ambitious in your quest for knowledge.

This is a very good essay.

Al Jazeera now confirm their crew in Gaza City have all been assassinated:

Parts of the Constitution were erased from the Library of Congress website, including the section featuring the foreign emoluments clause. The removal was blamed on a "coding error." Here's a reminder of what the clause says, just in case Congress ever decides to enforce it...

We're going to need journalists to stop talking about synthetic text extruding machines as if they have *thoughts* or *stances* that they are *trying* to *communicate*. ChatGPT can't *admit* anything, nor *self-report*. Gah. www.wsj.com/tech/ai/chat...

Did you know I originally hail from SAHE O'MLDSUXA? I didn't.

I'm just at a loss for words. What's happening to trans rights in the UK is absolutely horrifying, and what's deeply worrying for me is that Norway (and increasingly the US) seem to look to the UK's mistreatment of trans people as a template.

Every reputable expert I know considers mRNA vaccine technology to be one of the most revolutionary advances in medicine in our lifetimes. Its inventors won the Nobel Prize in 2023. Shutting it down now is pointless self-harm to humanity.

I'm angry all the time these days, but it's actually unfathomable to me that one person has the power to halt scientific progress, doing *generational* damage. For literally all of our sakes, someone needs to do something. Get this man out of the government.

If historians know something it is this: nothing is inevitable just because it is popular. AI is not an exception. Nor is fascism.

When I was growing up, I had a ballet teacher who would routinely tell us, 'There are so many people in the world who want to cheat you out of something; why would you cheat yourself too?' and I honestly think about that advice all the time.

Anyone here going to Interspeech and wants to do a student a big favor? He was accepted & paid, but ultimately cannot leave the U.S. due to ongoing fascism (he’s on a visa). They will pull his paper if he can’t find anyone to present it for him. DM if you’re attending & may be able to help!

I'm very excited and proud that my dept @kingsdh.bsky.social is hosting this major conference in 2026. There are many streams of DH, some old, some new, and I've always believed that the future of the field is dialogue between them. This landmark event will do that www.kcl.ac.uk/events/digit...

Når en sjef nær deg sier "KI er kommet for å bli", mener de egentlig "KI vil bli integrert i infrastrukturen du bruker uansett om det funker eller ei, for det styres av en håndfull amerikanske konserner hvis forretningsmodell ikke trenger at produkter funker, og jeg vil ikke motsette meg det".

The Silent spring, only it's the absence of whalesong

Det er helt sinnsykt å hevde at vi har for mange humaniorastudenter i Norge. Vi har for få, og antallet faller stadig. Det er nå så få at vi mest sannsynlig ikke kan tilby andre språk enn engelsk på de fleste ungdomsskoler ganske snart. Disse påstandene fremsettes stadig helt uten grunnlag.
