As a small Christmas present I have created the Image-text dataset using digitalized artworks from National Gallery of Denmark and their text descriptions in Danish/English (when available) The dataset was collected using SMK API (www.smk.dk/article/smk-...) huggingface.co/datasets/V4l...

Working on new world map view for the museum's online collection (AKA open.smk.dk/en/) 🗺️ Moving from Google Maps to @openstreetmap.bsky.social while we're at it. #musetech

Hi5 was an early social platform, launched in 2003. Americans mostly ignored it. Big in Latin America & Southeast Asia with tens of millions of users at its peak, today it’s mostly social games & dating. Check out your favorite websites with the #WaybackMachine: web.archive.org 🧵 #Wayback1T

AI over-correction

Uhyggeligt #chatkontrol

We're rethinking on-site digital for SMK – Statens Museum for Kunst. The future is bring-your-own-device based, QR based and extremely data-driven. We can't wait to get started and there's even a blogpost (!) #musetech

Reference librarian Eddie Kristan said lenders at the library where he works have been asking him to find books that don’t exist without realizing they were hallucinated by AI. 🔗 www.404media.co/librarians-a...

Ny podcast (hostet af yours truly) 🎧 I begyndelsen af det 20. århundrede er Statens Museum for Kunst ikke videre interesseret i nyere, fransk kunst. Men to entreprenante samlere sætter sig for at ændre museets mening. Deres plan går næsten i vasken, men kun næsten. 👉 pod.fo/e/32369f

Jeg skulle blive ret voksen, før jeg lærte, at det er valgfrit, om man vil skrive "en slags museum" eller "et slags museum".

I've made a local AI chatbot that runs entirely in your browser on your device It's a chatbot pretending to be a human pretending to be an artist pretending to be a crayfish. No data gets sent anywhere - everything happens locally using Phi-3.5-mini in your browser using WebLLM technology.

Skatteministeriet anslår, at en astronomisk sum af statsgæld ikke kan inddrives, skriver Rigsrevisionen i ny beretning. Baggrunden er de mangeårige problemer med skats it-systemer.

Played around with ChatGPT in ‘Deep Research’ mode. Not impressed. Decent synthesis but also speculation and made-up statements disguised as facts 🫠

Economists warn that this might weaken confidence in public statistics. I’d be more interested in any single economist who believed the opposite.

Unfollowing divisive political accounts on Twitter/X led people to feel 23% less animosity toward opposing groups, with many choosing not to refollow, and the effects lasted nearly a year after the study was conducted. www.theguardian.com/books/2025/j...

this man could have all the money that exists in the world and he'd still be a tragic loser nerd

The fact innovative people 1) decide to bring their innovation to Bluesky specifically 2) manage to get private funding for that is a very strong and positive signal about the future of this platform in my opinion

Well, apparently no price is too high when you want to block children’s access to music they want to hear.

Believe it or not, the EU-US trade deal just got messier. The White House has published a fact-sheet about the agreement with claims that directly contradict the European Commission's version of events. Let's take a closer look.

Everyone is celebrating him for his (obviously wonderful) songs but I am also celebrating him for releasing all his works into the public domain and insisting he retained no copyrights over any of it.

They were wrong and he was right. And if all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed—if all records told the same tale—then the lie passed into history and became truth.

Keep shoving this unwanted AI shit on teachers and we’ll go back to fucking quills and inkwells

Open social "platforms are fundamentally different, in principle and design, from American behemoths like Instagram and X. They restore control to users, reduce gatekeeping, and encourage innovation" says @seabass.bsky.social in a new essay: www.project-syndicate.org/commentary/e...
