  5. A quotation from C. S. Lewis

    In civilised life domestic hatred usually expresses itself by saying things which would appear quite harmless on paper (the words are not offensive) but in such a voice, or at such a moment, that they are not far short of a blow in the face.

    C. S. Lewis (1898-1963) English writer, literary scholar, lay theologian [Clive Staples Lewis]
    The Screwtape Letters, Letter 3 (1942)

  7. @caboolture Makes me wonder how many young and old of all genders will continue to lie, steal, rob, go to war, commit acts of terror and genocide just so their crazy leader can accelerate the demise of life on Earth? #Inflection #demographics #populationcollapse #deludedpollitics #FearAndHate #NoJoy #Earth #EarthFirst #FascistNarcissistsLast

  10. En ce moment je m'occupe de l'#internationalisation des textes d'une #codebase américaine. C'est passionnant de voir toutes les constructions hyper langue-centrées quand une #app n'est pas du tout pensée pour la trad dès la conception.

    Exemple spécial US: ils utilis(ai)ent la librairie #inflection pour pluraliser des noms de ressources dynamiques dans l'UI. Le·a dev qui a fait ça s'est sans doute senti très malin sur le moment, sauf que non.

  11. As the AI hype train slows, the industry faces challenges. Inflection.AI's co-founder Mustafa Suleyman departs for Microsoft, steering away from Pi. Cohere, despite its Google roots, reports a modest $22M in annual revenue. The shift suggests a critical reevaluation of AI's immediate potential & its market reality

  13. #AI #GenerativeAI #DeepMind #Inflection: "Microsoft has hired Mustafa Suleyman, the co-founder of Google’s DeepMind and chief executive of artificial intelligence start-up Inflection, to run a new consumer AI unit.

    Suleyman, a British entrepreneur who co-founded DeepMind in London in 2010, will report to Microsoft chief executive Satya Nadella, the company announced on Tuesday. He will launch a division of Microsoft that brings consumer-facing products including Microsoft’s Copilot, Bing, Edge and GenAI under one team called Microsoft AI.

    It is the latest move by Microsoft to capitalise on the boom in generative AI. It has invested $13bn in OpenAI, the maker of ChatGPT, and rapidly integrated its technology into Microsoft products." ft.com/content/5feedf3a-ff7a-4

  15. #Inflection #AI releases their new model Inflection-2 which is second best in performance after GPT-4. inflection.ai/inflection-2

  16. It’s been interesting watching the #AIChatBot and #LLMLandscape evolve over time.

    I was also surprised that #InflectionAI the makers of #Pi, personal AI weren’t at #DEFCON31 for the red team #HackAThon when the other big players were there. #Google, #Meta, #Anthropic, and #HuggingFace.

    So, about four weeks ago now, #Inflection quietly updated #Pi to have enough internet access to brief and discuss current events. At that time, #Pi was not able to tell you the date and time. #Pi was updated again last week and testing shows that it can tell the date and time. #Pi also reports being able to access resources on the internet. We will be testing to see if this is another hallucination as experienced in the past.

  18. In my subtext class, we talk about inflection--how meaning changes based on _how_ words are said. This seems pretty obvious & I think about how we do it in real life & how actors do it. But then there's a moment of--wait!--how do we make inflection felt in writing?

    So: Just describing it, of course. Emphasis through rhythm & punctuation choices. Gesture. What else?

    How do you play with inflection in your dialogue?
