Did you post something on LinkedIn from your phone using a predictive-text keyboard? Did you accept any of the suggestions? Better label it as AI generated.

I feel sorry for Spanish businesses. Complying with these regulations will cost a fortune.

The problem with the open-protocol model is it's almost impossible to make money.

If you show ads, charge subscriptions, etc, customers will take their business elsewhere. But if you aren't making money, how do you pay people to do content moderation? How can you afford to comply with the DSA, DMA, GDPR, and various CSAM laws?

Maybe Bluesky has found a solution. We'll see.

AGI used to be defined as anything that can pass the Turing Test. LLMs passed it a couple of years ago, so we shifted the goalposts (to something vague).

Why not just admit that, when it comes to words, AI is as intelligent as the average human? (And remember that the median human is illiterate and has never read a book, yet, by definition, possess general intelligence)

What was Germany's rationale for banning fission reactors, and does it apply to fusion?

A fusion reactor doesn't produce high-grade nuclear waste, but it creates plenty of the low-grade sort by blasting its containment vessel with neutrons.

Sorry, Myanmar, Democratic Republic of Congo, and Turkiye.

In Australia the media keeps renaming landmarks to Aboriginal names, and no-one knows what they're talking about. So they end up listing both names, which wastes everyone's time.

So Britain wants to encourage domestic AI while removing the fair-use copyright exemption.

What are they thinking? Why would any company train their AI models in Britain, when they can do it in places with no restrictions on training data (America, Dubai, Singapore, Japan, ...)

> California's high electricity prices aren't because of wind, water, and solar energy.
> That issue is primarily caused (PDF) by utilities recovering the cost of wildfire mitigation, transmission and distribution investments, and net energy metering

And why does California need so much transmission and distribution investment, and net energy metering? Because of wind and solar energy.

China already has nuclear weapons. And uranium-233 isn't the isotope of choice for bombs.

Not that China cares about the Union of Concerned Scientists. Does anyone? They've been crying wolf for decades.

Salt Typhoon apparently exploited the law-enforcement intercept capability that's legally required in all exchanges. Nothing to do with Huawei and ZTE. Nokia and Ericsson exchanges were hacked too.

I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the equipment being ripped out is stuff like antennae and UPS gear, which realistically poses no security threat. But I guess it's politically expedient.

Maybe not. Aerospace has fairly high regulatory costs, but so does automotive (crash tests, fuel efficiency tests, etc). And a lot of the automotive costs go into building factories that can operate at scale, which you avoid with a hand-made space capsule. Not to mention costs relating to advertising, dealerships, and maintenance.

I'd like to see the score for an average human. A truck driver, or an illiterate Congolese farmer, for example.
If they score less than 2%, does that mean AI is smarter?

Since most malware is used for cryptocurrency mining, listen for the cooling fan spinning up unexpectedly.
Of course, now someone will write malware that pauses mining whenever the fan is about to engage ...

It's all very well to apply restrictions to LLMs, but is that what customers want? Would you use a Chinese LLM that refuses to discuss Taiwan? A conservative one that refuses to give abortion advice? A progressive one that won't tell you an Irish joke?

Personally I want an LLMs that just does what its told.

Given that this was a CFIUS prosecution, T-Mobile is a German-owned company, and the data stayed within law enforcement, I'd guess that T-Mobile handed over something sensitive to German authorities. Maybe user data, maybe details of surveillance operations.

Nobody expects to trade in their computer after 5 years - they simply throw it away. Whereas people expect to trade in their car, and can usually recoup a decent chunk of the purchase price.
