  4. Hito Steyerl und Karen Hao auf der #rp26 über Widerstand gegen Corporate AI

    https://youtu.be/PiXA0ul9ACs?si=XiXpw_-HxvqGSVPZ Für mich der Höhepunkt des re:publica-Tages gestern: Enteignungsstrategien der AI-Konzerne und Gegenstrategien. Mich hat überrascht und ermutigt, wie eindeutig die Haltung des Publikums war. Ich habe erst bei den Vorträgen Karen Haos und Hito Steyerls verstanden, wie eng der Zusammenhang zwischen der Aneignung von Ressourcen durch AI-Konzerne und den anderen durch Extraktion verursachten Krisen ist.

  5. Break away from the empire 🇪🇺

    Yeah, re:publica time again !

    And it started with a strong opening keynote by Karen Hao in which she urged Europe to “break away from the empire” and reduce its dependency on US AI tools.

    Instead of chasing Silicon Valley’s endless scale obsession, build smaller, task-specific AI that actually serves public needs.

    Looking forward to the next talks, hallway and conversations over the next days 🤖🌍

  6. «La inteligencia artificial no funciona con polvo mágico de hadas. Funciona gracias a trabajadores invisibles que entrenan algoritmos sin descanso hasta que estos han automatizado sus propios puestos de trabajo» 🎯 Karen Hao, 2019, entrevistando a la antropóloga Mary L. Gray

  7. Älyttääkö tekoäly? Melkoisen massiivinen kirja kertoo siitä miten jättiyhtiöt kisaavat siitä kuka saa maailman valtaansa. Luin kirjasta vain puolet kun kirjaston eräpäivä iski päälle.

  9. This is a great discussion and analysis of #AI with @naomiaklein and #KarenHao about her book The Empire of AI

  10. Journalist Karen Hao urged AI developers to move away from massive data center scale-up at an MIT conference. She argued the current approach is unnecessary and pointed to AlphaFold as an example of a better path: small, task-specific models that deliver enormous benefit without massive energy and resource costs. news.mit.edu/2026/right-path-f #AIagent #AI #GenAI #GlobalAIGovernance #KarenHao

  11. Seeing how inefficient, unsustainable, and generally doomed the hyperscale #AI business model is, it can be difficult to remember that #LearningModels don't need to be so resource intensive (if you don't have a business valuation to inflate).

    This #KarenHao interview from 8 months ago still feels evergreen.

  12. #Podcast episode recommendation: #Falter: #FutureDiscontinuous: Can we resist the #AI empire, #KarenHao?

    It's great insight into the #AI people around #ClosedAI (previously #OpenAI) and all the #techbros that we give Billions of Dollars ...

    Avoid if you're in a bad mood anyway.

  13. Just finished reading “Empire of AI” by Karen Hao, the story of the rise of OpenAI, how it went from non-profit to for-profit, and the insane speed with which AI has become so pervasive. Strikes the right tone of caution re: safety and governance. The multi-billion dollar investments and valuations of these companies is mad. Good read especially if you’re interested in the topic but remain skeptical of those running it.
