In order to watch the Super Bowl, as well as get access to the Jurassic World movies to satisfy my kiddo's current obsession with all things dinosaur, I did a month's subscription to Peacock. In installing the Peacock app onto my Android phone running a "degoogled" crDroid rom, TrackerControl detected a hilarious level of 10 embedded known trackers. Without the protection of a blocker like TrackerControl, this supposed streaming service is also a data mining extravaganza, sending tons of info back to all kinds of 3rd parties.

I had the idea recently: could we leverage the power of some of the tools used by the very powerful against them?

Thách thức khi khai thác dữ liệu từ Twitter/X

Việc lấy dữ liệu sạch và cấu trúc từ Twitter/X ngày càng khó khăn do API chính thức đắt đỏ và các biện pháp chặn bot. Một giải pháp API mới vừa được phát triển nhằm giải quyết vấn đề hạ tầng (proxy, trình duyệt) để thu thập:

- Tweet, timeline, kết quả tìm kiếm.
- Hồ sơ người dùng, chỉ số tương tác.
- Theo dõi xu hướng và luồng thảo luận.

Bạn thấy nền tảng nào khó lấy dữ liệu nhất hiện nay?

Cornell University: Digital humanities scholars chart lost art of maps in novels. “Digital humanities scholars from the Cornell Ann S. Bowers of Computing and Information Science have developed a computational system to mine maps from nearly 100,000 digitized books from the 19th and early 20th centuries, discovering that just 1.7% of novels include maps, mostly at the beginning or end, among […]

When the veil gets lifted.

161 partners! Really? And this is not a unique case.
If a website pretends to be about information with this many partners, to me it's motivation is sales and your business model is flawed.

If I see a cookie notice with this much partners and/or don't see a 'disagree' option right away, I'm gone. Websites like these are leaches. If this website ended today I couldn't care.

Strittig ist beim #Urheberschutz nicht, ob #Datamining für #AI #Menschenrechte unterläuft, sondern ..
.. ob die wörtliche Widergabe von Texten durch #LLM s Rechte von Konzernen verletzen:
https://www.scinexx.de/news/technik/copyright-gema-gewinnt-gegen-openai/
.. ob das Entfernen von #Wasserzeichen für #KI die Rechte von Bilddiensten einschränkt:

Die Verwurstung von Inhalten soll offenbar umso legaler sein, je schlechter sie sich zum Original zuordnen lässt.

Gibt es Statistiken darüber wieviele Ingenieursstunden in die Rückgewinnung von maschinenlesbaren Daten mittels Tools wie z.B. #pdfplumber geflossen sind weil in Deutschland die Digitalisierung bei PDFs von Exceltabellen aufhört?

Why “public AI”, built on open source software, is the way forward for the EU

A quarter of a century ago, I wrote a book called “Rebel Code”. It was the first – and is still the only – detailed history of the origins and rise of free software and open source, based on interviews with the gifted and generous hackers who took part. Back then, it was clear that open source represented a powerful alternative to the traditional proprietary approach to software […]
