[ DeepMind's Blind Spot ]
The most comprehensive foresight paper on paths to superintelligence (ASI) has a structural blind spot: DeepMind is not a neutral observer, but an actor in the dynamics it describes. Analysis in three movements: summary, strategy, epistemology.

Illustration: AI whose internal logic no one understands — a neural black box optimised without awareness of what it does. Counter-movement: deproletarianisation, co-individuation with the machine rather than dependence upon it.

Our information landscape and opaque black box systems
The AI Con, debunking myths of the AI revolution, a review
“A computer can never be held accountable, therefore a computer must never make a management decision.”
"But that is precisely why some in power want to hand decision‑making capacity to computers: it promises a sunlit utopia of profit without blame. Once AI is mainlined into our veins, we may be too doped up to care."
The AI Con: How to Fight Big Tech’s Hype and Create the Future We Want by Emily M Bender and Alex Hanna by Bodley Head

LLM tools used in medicine found to be loaded with white male bias.
"The findings by researchers at leading US and UK universities suggest that medical AI tools powered by LLMs have a tendency to not reflect the severity of symptoms among female patients, while also displaying less “empathy” toward Black and Asian ones."
Every time someone says 'AI', ask 'whose AI?'

TVNZ (Television New Zealand) interviewed me about some of the work we're doing at Nīkau, and infrastructure activism more broadly. It was on TV nationally here this morning, archived soon after on YT.
Apparently a longer version is in the mix somewhere, will follow up.
For now, here's a privacy preserving copy of what was aired today:

A good read on the pervasive US-born 'platform class', outlining the ideologies and reductionism that drive the dissolving of public services and institutions into digital platforms - privately run and cranked up on automation.

Can't any of the institutions (city councils, universities) supporting/using Decidim be persuaded to fund/host a #PeerTube instance? That would make a lot more sense in terms of #Decidim 's statements of #technopolitics rather than supporting a #GAFAM that is trying to make viewing ads obligatory. As a fraction of the overall #BarcelonaCity budget, the cost of maintaining a PeerTube instance can't be that much.
