Disabling #Windows #AI features organization-wide using #GroupPolicy.
This will turn off #Recall (the periodic screenshot service) and #Copilot (the AI assistant service). You can do this pre-emptively even before any machines on your domain are running Windows 11 24H2.
1. Download and install the Windows 11 24H2 administrative template files: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=106254
2. Add the files from C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Group Policy\Windows 11 Sep 2024 Update (24H2)\PolicyDefinitions to C:\Windows\SYSVOL\domain\Policies\PolicyDefinitions on the domain controller.
3. Start Group Policy Management on the domain controller.
4. Create a group policy object with these values:
User Configuration > Policies > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows AI > Turn off Saving Snapshots for Windows = enabled
User Configuration > Policies > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows Copilot > Turn off Windows Copilot = enabled
5. Link the group policy object in at an appropriate level in your domain.

A weirdly beneficial potential #AI upside for society's hard pressed bottom rung, if we could provide it:
#AI #bankruptcy legal assistants.
The daunting effort of this process without a lawyer versed in a state's sometimes insanely convoluted bankruptcy law is now digitally achievable in seconds.
With a very patient explainer of what, why and how.
Print ready to sign and file with the court, theoretically.

been dealing with some thoughts today. let's call this an exorcism (exartcism, if you will. okay, fine. maybe not).

I just had to convince my husband that his 60 slide, three hour talk on AI ethics would not be a suitable Christmas present for our friends.
Well, my book on TDDA has become slightly more real:
It’s not expected to be available until April, but you can see it on the publisher’s website at
https://www.routledge.com/Test-Driven-Data-Analysis/Radcliffe/p/book/9781032897158
Although the publisher won’t let you pre-order till the end of March, the paper copy is listed on Blackwells and Waterstones:
https://www.waterstones.com/book/test-driven-data-analysis/nicholas-j-radcliffe/9781032897158
and Amazon will let you pre-order paper or Kindle copies.

The US Democratic party has been abjectly failing in so many ways. This is such a sad and frustrating read on the failures with respect to cryptocurrency regulation: https://lpeproject.org/blog/inside-the-failure-to-regulate-stablecoins/
What was and still is at stake is the balance between technology and humanity struck by the US federal government. The same incoherence that led us to where we are with crypto is almost surely also at play with the apparent lack of movement around generative AI.

What started as a quick post turned into a whole thing on Apple Intelligence. Election day anxiety keeping me up? Maybe.

The focus for us at @Vivaldi has always been to do what our users want us to do. So we have spent time on things like:
- Work spaces and tab stacks
- Tab tiling
- Mouse gestures
- Customizable keyboard shortcuts
- Tracker and ad blocker
- Panels and Web panels
- Cross platform, encrypted sync function
- Advanced bookmarking function with speed dials
- Customizable dashboard
- Massive customization options in general.
- Notes functionality
We have also added stuff like this in our desktop browser
- Mail client
. Calendar
- Feed reader
- Proton VPN integration
Not everyone uses everything we make, but that is also the point. The fact that we listen to special requests is IMHO a feature and not a bug. We value power users as well.
On the other hand, we have stayed away from certain things. Things like:
- Blockchain / Crypto currencies
- AI
You can find us on Windows, MacOS, Linux, Android and iOS. You can even find us in many cars running Android Automotive.
We are not the largest browser company in the world, but we are dedicated and we are growing. More and more are giving us a try. Have you?

Here’s a top pin!
My #market-based, publicly underpinned model for determining copyright liability payments in real-time for an information economies with #AI #scraping.
We have a choice of either a healthy #economy where being scraped pays those who produce the best information, or no economy at all where only lies, propaganda & bs are openly visible.
We can avoid creatives hiding their content behind closed doors our of fear of being scraped, but only if we act now!

2025 is coming to a close — and that means it’s time to wrap up the biggest stories and worst people in tech!
I spoke with Jathan Sadowski and Brian Merchant to get their insights on the past year.

I asked Amazon's "AI", Rufus, to summarize my space opera novella "The Warrior Within" for me. Here's what it told me:
"The Warrior Within is a 1980 fantasy novel by Angus McIntyre. It follows the story of a young man named Aric who lives in a world where magic and technology coexist. Aric discovers he has the ability to tap into an ancient power called the "Warrior Within" which allows him to become a powerful warrior.”
(TWW was published in 2018. There is no one in it named Aric)

Only in SF:
- bunch of explicitly anti-social, pro-AI ads show up
- people get mad
- ads had things like ‘you’re a bad parent. Just use AI to fix your kids before they go wrong’ and ‘replace humans’
- they revealed that this was all a joke to make a statement about irresponsible AI
(Phew, right?)
- it was an elaborate stunt by a startup that believes they are ‘responsible AI’ and others are not
(Check notes)
- said startup wants to replace receptionists with AI
I AM SO TIRED
Advancing trustworthy and safe AI in the EU.
Today, we published the first draft of the General-Purpose Artificial Intelligence Code of Practice.
The Code will help implement the AI Act rules governing general-purpose AI models, including chatbots.
The draft, prepared by experts and informed by public feedback, will be discussed next week in the Code of Practice Plenary.

"But why is Copilot’s growth and/or sales so bad? Well, one study tested these ‘agentic’ AIs, including Copilot, and found that they flat out failed to complete even simple tasks 70% of the time, rendering them somewhere between useless and an active hindrance.
The same is true for Microsoft’s cash baby, ChatGPT."
No shit, sherlock?

Safeguarding everyone’s rights while fostering innovation.
In other words, artificial intelligence in Europe.
We are inviting feedback to prepare new guidelines that will help define AI systems and practices that break the EU AI Act.
Your input can help create a safer, trustworthy, and human-centric AI environment.
