#Enshittification is the biggest problem of #Tech world. Every product, is moving to "You Don't Own What You Buy". Since consumers are unable to stop these effective #Ransomware strategies of Tech Companies, #Govt need to step up and stop this #BS, cause they believe even air should be charged for.

A partir de ahora vamos a hablar mucho de #eclipses. Por eso @javierarmentia recuerda que informar es un servicio público y que hay que asumir "que el público es curioso, no ingenuo" y hay que contar "sin infantilizar ni asustar"
He escrito en su blog:

"How to get started with Rufus" is not a particularly relevant search result when the question was "How to completely totally and permanently disable this Rufus bullshit 'AI' nonsense?".
Just sayin'.

No estábamos todas en la foto, pero éramos, bajo el sol exagerado de Palma de Mallorca para ser casi noviembre y delante de la sandía que nos recuerda el genocidio en Gaza, la sonriente y recién elegida junta de la #AEC2, la Asociación Española de Comunicación Científica, a la que pertenezco desde hace 30 años y en la que vuelvo a servir como vocal. La foto la he robado de #BS porque mi asociación aún no se ha animado a venir por aquí. Al menos dejó X. Bueno, que mirad qué guapas estamos.

#PamBondi #hearings #BS
If you watched Pam Bondi with her Binder of Insults yesterday at the hearings, did you wonder how many Minions it took to dig out each piece of unproved dirt on every Dem on the Committee so that she could fling it when their questions became uncomfortable?
Do people who do that like their jobs? Do they go home at night to their families and talk about what a successful day of work they had? How many does it take?
Pam and Friends have no shame. -

CW: ChatGPT and other LLMs (long)
I have very mixed feelings about #ChatGPT and related large language models (LLMs). They are certainly a cool tool, but I also currently don't believe that these "stochastic parrots" will easily replace search, article/paper writing, coding, and similar tasks. That is, they can be used to augment, but not replace those human activities - at least in the near future.
One more specific example is #Github #Copilot: I am impressed by the code suggested with small "query blocks", either in the form of method signatures or even just comments. While I wouldn't ever just Tab-complete that code into a production codebase (and I hope others also shy away from it), using it as a smarter auto-complete can be a total time-saver. While still learning #Rust, I find it a great tool to provide me with correct syntax while I try to express the semantic concepts in my head. That is, the #VSCode + #Copilot + #rustanalyzer based workflow is a magnitude faster than what I can achieve, at my current level of competence with #Rust, with any other IDE.
However, on the conceptual level, its suggestions range from spot-on (supposedly for parts that have been used in the same form in many Github projects already) to "terrible, awful, don't even think about it". Don't trust the concepts generated by #Copilot, but for getting a concept into correct syntax, it can be a great help.I find the same to be true of #ChatGPT: it produces correct (human language) syntax, but its concepts on a semantic level are more random than anything else. It doesn't have a reasonable world model, and without such a world model, even internal consistency of statements (let alone factual validity in alignment with what we consider the real world) is darn hard (impossible?) to achieve. It's currently a toy, and should only be used for toy purposes.
On that note, the best use I could personally find for #ChatGPT is to reply to spammers, who operate on a comparable level of factual and consistent concepts (i.e., #BS): https://github.com/rmayr/chatgpt-emailMaybe #ReinforcementLearning will at some point allow LLMs to be factually more accurate, including the ability to cite sources. I don't know, as I'm not an expert in this field. But the current #UnsupervisedLearning approaches with just scraping massive amounts of (syntax, but not semantic) web content seem fundamentally flawed to me.
On a sidenote, if the #OpenAI mission is really to "ensure that artificial general intelligence benefits all of humanity", shouldn't the trained models be, erm, #open (source)? After all, the training data is publicly generated, so it seems more beneficial to humanity if the derivations are also #open for building upon them.

Wouldn’t it be nice with a little less bullshit? Isn't that why most of us have joined the fediverse recently?
Anyway, here’s an open invitation to join that mission with the No Bullshit Manifesto: https://nobsmf.org
