Duolingo is getting weirder and weirder since they went all in on #ai
I stopped doing most of the lessons and just did a word a day as a keepie-up. But, er.
Araña means chandelier? Tea translated to merianda instead of té, this actually makes sense to me as a northern brit, but who else is going to think tea means snack time?
Weird words with weird uses and not in a fun way, in an ai slop kinda way.

Microsoft is moving GitHub into its CoreAI team, following the resignation of GitHub CEO Thomas Dohmke today.
The Verge reports. So much of "embracing AI or getting out" - maybe Thomas Dohmke wasn't embracing AI enough? 
Hey friends! I did a TEDx talk and it's now up on the TED Conferences YouTube. It's possibly the best and most important talk I've ever done.

Last night, @pluralistic was in conversation with @mariafarrell to mark ORG's 20th birthday.
This wide-ranging conversation covers everything from the 'Internet dimension' of policy-making to copyright in the age of AI and how to fight for digital rights.
Plus much more!

🤖 Gemini’s Gmail summaries were just caught parroting phishing scams. A security researcher embedded hidden prompts in email text (w/ white font, zero size) to make Gemini falsely claim the user's Gmail password was compromised and suggest calling a fake Google number. It's patched now, but the bigger issue remains: AI tools that interpret or summarize content can be manipulated just like humans. Attackers know this and will keep probing for prompt injection weaknesses.
TL;DR
⚠️ Invisible prompts misled Gemini
📩 AI summaries spoofed Gmail alerts
🔍 Prompt injection worked cleanly
🔐 Google patched, but risk remains

The harms arising from chatbots are escalating, and not nearly enough is being done to address them before they become a big problem.

🦅 Can you say 🪶 #NATIVE. Not to be Confused with 🇮🇱 #SAVAGES.. 🪶 | 8 Native voices. 8 #Truths. Spoken from the past, for right now.
ANALOGY: #LAMP_STACK IS 🪶 #NATIVE_SOFTWARE for the #Internet. OPENAI OR CHAT ALPHEBET SOUP >> Next evolution of "Predictive Search Engine" >> NOTHING MORE!
📽️ https://www.youtube.com/shorts/yZu150nwgzg
Btw the so-called Savages are the GOOD GUYS;)
WHAT IS 🪶 #LAMP? You wanna Job? Learn Lamp which is infact #Basecamp for all #Software_Engineers. LAMP Should be a major computer science course offered in all MIDDLE SCHOOLS TO HIGH SCHOOL Just like learning foreign languages such as Mandarin Chinese.
Look at it this way. Software are Languages to learn, like Chinese, French, German, Italian etc., (aka #linguistics) in order TO #HEAR AND #LISTEN and #SPEAK (respond) ELECTRONICALLY = #LAMP.
#L stands for #LINUX when the masses just learned that #Windows, #Microsoft, #Telcom or #IBM does not Power the #Internet.. Only Linux.. = #NATIVE;) 🪶 i mean APACHE?? a dead giveaway ..COME ON?? replace with inferior #nginx bc it talks to python for IP THEFT!
So where have you all been FOR THE LAST 2.5 DECADES (25 YEARS) ???
A LAMP ( #Linux, #Apache, #MySQL, #Perl #PHP is one of the most #common_software_stacks for the #web (aka #WWW #World_Wide_Web) = INTERNET most #popular applications. Its A #generic_software_stack model
(🪶 NATIVE) has largely #interchangeable components.[1] To date no one has even touched on the potential of any of these new technologies other that big tech $50 dollar PYTHON scripts that have been modified for IP THEFT FOR THE LAST 2 DECADES.
📽️ https://www.youtube.com/shorts/yZu150nwgzg
E.G. #Python & #nginx replacements (recently btw) used for #IP_THEFT = #Interchangeable component
Each letter in the #acronym L.A.M.P. stands for one of its four #open_source #building_blocks:
#Linux for the #Operating_System
#Apache HTTP Server
#Maria_DB or #MySQL for the #relational_database_management system
Perl/PHP = PROGRAMMATIC!
🪶 Evolution
#Unix >> #Linux OS
Perl >> PHP >> SERVER SIDE programming languages for internet use.
#AI IS A #MYTH, A #LIE, A #WET_DREAM A #FANTASY!
Without a conscious?? 100% dog and pony show!
Hype = Bullsh*t!
These components in LAMP stack are present in the software repositories of most #Linux_distributions.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LAMP_(software_bundle)
FOR THE LAST 2.5 DECADES THE THIEVES (AKA JEWS & USA .GOV) HAVE raped, pillage and murder the NATIVES since DAY 1! Including Priceless Technology only to be replaced with HYPE to Control and Manipulate Markets.
Robotics' are still in their infantile stages #mechanically_speaking. In Terms of #Intelligence.. REAL AI does not Exist >> What you are seeing now is 100% #HYPE. aka dog and pony show, at best. AI will never replicate the conscious thinking but can implement a regiment to conduct many repetitive MENIAL tasks.. (e.g. Flipping Burgers at Micky Dees ;) #Car_Wash enhancements.. grin
btw #Python is a 20 year " #after_thought, " that the kids use bc its an elementary Software Language for beginners (resurrected by India) and the easiest to use for #IP_THEFT & #Data_Scraping >> #DUMB_BOT_POWERED!!
CASE in POINT ➕ ➖ ➗ #CALCULATORS (aka #TEXAS? INSTRUMENTS ) were WRITTEN in #PYTHON back in the 80's = #MATH_CLASS #CHEATING on EXAMS;)
Remember? WE DO! The Poor kids could not afford a calculator. However After Christmas Holiday the rich kids (daddy/mommy made) would come to school bolstering their wonderful calculators (Unfair Advantages) that only ended up dumbing students down just like they have currently done with #DUMBPHONES and to #CONCEAL #NATVE_SOFTWARE_STACKS for our schools and TO THE MASSES??
= CENTRALIZED #Social_Oppression, #Institutional_Oppression, and #Economic_Oppression! #Woke_Now?

“ProPublica’s reporting revealed these cancelled contracts were delivering essential services … and exposed the cruel and dumb AI formulas DOGE bros used to cancel contracts,” Sen. Blumenthal said. “Veterans and all Americans deserve transparency.”
#DOGE #Veterans #AI #Health #Government #Technology #Journalism #Transparency
Last week, I got an email from Microsoft. It told me I’d be paying 46% more for my Office subscription, starting next month.
But when I tried to cancel, it offered me the same price I was already paying — without the generative AI features I never asked for in the first place.
This isn’t just deceptive; it’s an abuse of market power. I’ve had it with Microsoft.

On reflection, I think the big mistake is the conflation of #AI with #LLM and #MachineLearning.
There are genuine exciting advances in ML with applications all over the place, in science, (not least in my own research group looking at high resolution regional climate downscaling), health diagnostics, defence etc. But these are not the AIs that journalists are talking about, nor that are really related the LLMs.
They're still good uses of GPUs and will probably produce economic benefits, but probably not the multi- trillion ones the pundits seem to be expecting
https://fediscience.org/@Ruth_Mottram/114896256761569397
Ruth_Mottram - My main problem with @edzitron.com 's piece on the #AIbubble is that I agree with so much of it.
I'm now wondering if I've missed something about #LLMs? The numbers and implications for stock markets are terrifyingly huge!

Okay, Ai did alright.
I've been thinking about when to use #Ai, and how to use it as a tool to improve my work while not de-skilling me, or outputting crap.
I have a #Golang web app, which has handler, sql, api logic, for some types. Ai works really well using the existing architecture setup as a template/model for adding similar functionality for a new type.
"Add meta tag handlers to display a page of blog posts that have the specified tag"
The actual prompt was more comprehensive.
If you are enabling an AI feature scanning all your emails, consider this will also scan the emails people have sent you. This information could include personal or otherwise legally protected information.
If this data leaks later (as it regularly happens with these systems), this could mean severe legal consequences for you down the road.
YOU are responsible for protecting the data of others under your custody.
This includes the messages and emails others send to you.
