RT if you want a CLEAR statement about AI from all GNU/Linux distributions and are ready to quit any distribution that is ok with integrating AI slopware.

BREAKING: Sam Altman wants to provide "intelligence" as a metered utility, like electricity or water. I think he'd have a better chance selling hubris and stupidity, he has plenty available.

This is genuinely a brilliant idea, but surely a simple thing to implement in software for any keyboard? Just disengage caps lock whenever the space bar is pressed…

Science fiction authors may be into systems thinking; the kind of thinking that predicts the consequences of a hyped up, error prone product designed to wastefully burn fossil fuels to keep oil oligarchs rich.

AI is a product accelerating an ecocide.

An Iranian man left this comment on a YouTube channel.
"As an Iranian, I can tell you the situation is no longer just political—it's existential. We are trapped between two collapsing structures: one internal, one external. On one hand, we face a deeply dysfunctional government, led by the Supreme Leader and the Islamic Republic’s unelected institutions. 1/

Just to log this, in case it escalates. This article, which claims I've endorsed an automated trading service, is a scam, which has nothing to do with me, the Guardian, or the BBC, whose logo has been mocked up. The only financial advice I'd give anyone is "don't ask me for financial advice."

Yes, Rupert, many people are not ashamed of being left-wing. If only more were ashamed of being right-wing.

Turing Award winner and former Oxford professor Tony Hoare passed away last Thursday at the age of 92.

Hoare is famous for quicksort, ALGOL, Hoare logic and so much more.

Jim Miles gives his personal reflections.

... "And during the acute phase of the covid pandemic, Gates personally intervened to kill the WHO Covid-19 Technology Access Pool and to get Oxford to renege on its promise to make an open-source vaccine"

@gjm @cstross

more recent ref: "In the 2000s, the Gates Foundation blocked South Africa from procuring the anti-retroviral AIDS drugs it was entitled to under the WTO's TRIPS agreement. The Gates Foundation blocked the Access to Medicines WIPO treaty, which would have vastly expanded the Global South's ability to manufacture life-saving drugs."

I am one of the nearly 10,000 authors contributing our names to Don't Steal This Book; a protest launched today at the London Book Fair.

If AI developers wish to use our work in their software they can ask us for permission. If we agree, they can pay us to license it on clearly defined terms.

This is how copyright operates.

Tech companies ignoring copyright is theft. For the UK government to even consider allowing this to continue is a disgrace.

I came across a functioning coder today asking if a kilogram was 1000 or 1024 grams.

Yes they did ask, yes they verified, yes they accepted 1000 grams.

I swear ten thousand years in the future some fucker will 'oops, black hole!' 'cos they began in comp sci and learned kilo = 1024 first and NOBODY WILL CATCH IT. Humanity will be WIPED OUT because YOU LOT KEPT THIS SHIT UP.

I would say that in retrospect Microsoft's Clippy wasn't so bad. He gave some pretty great tips on how to write a memo. He didn't destroy the environment by consuming more energy than most countries. He didn't help bomb any countries.

All in all, C- to B+ range, realistically.
