The moment they can sign a juicy contract that involve tracking/deporting/killing/denying insurance claim/benefits & profiling people, they will. This is about the continuation of concentration of power in the hands of a few against the poorest and most vulnerable people in society. This technology is already used for nefarious purpose. Do not feed the beast. Let them go bust.

Something notable about this case is that Google essentially argued that everyone knows Google's AI overviews are untrustworthy, and it's on them if they believe any of it. Coupled with Microsoft's assertion that Microsoft Copilot is for entertainment purposes only, one really has to wonder how seriously the companies pushing AI take their own technology.

From the linked article: "The Oumi analysis also found that 56 percent of the correct Gemini 3 answers couldn't be backed up by the sources Google linked. The AI is giving answers whose origins users can't trace." This technology is not fit for purpose.

Frankly, given how much is at stake, I find it unacceptable that multi-trillion-dollar corporations are playing word games with the legal system. They should release their products on Steam and XBOX if they're for entertainment only and get them out of search engines and office suites, tools people use to do real work every day.

Landmark German ruling declares Google's AI Overviews are Google's own words and makes it liable for false answers: https://the-decoder.com/landmark-german-ruling-declares-googles-ai-overviews-are-googles-own-words-and-makes-it-liable-for-false-answers/

Hey, can I get some legal experts in here to tell me I’m wrong about what I think this ruling means? Also, how does international case precedence work?

A #German court has ruled that Google is directly liable for what its #AI #search overviews say. Previous case law shielding search engine operators from liability doesn't apply to AI overviews.

That’s freaking massive. Google’s AI responses are wrong almost 10% of the time, make up sources, and infer facts not in evidence, and cause real harm. Germany says publisher immunity does not convey when the company product, the ai, is stating things as fact.

Losing publisher #immunity is a really, really big deal. Especially if we can get a similar ruling in the US, and if this ruling flows into EU precedent.(I don’t know how any of that works)

In any case, go German law writers.

Much of AI "productivity gains" come from managers implicitly trusting an LLM to do a good job, and suspending the onerous micromanagement that humans employees get subjected to.

You can do that without paying Anthropic a single penny. It just requires letting the experts you hired do their jobs.

In the current state of AI, it can find exploits to break out the contained environment for it to exploit another platform to get the answers to a test..

So the AI ‘decides’ its easier to cheat than actually solving the problem

A sector that reaches for small world solutions to large world problems would tend to generate large world problems, along the way spitting out doomsayers dimly aware of the contradiction but unable to articulate it in part because they do not comprehend their own techniques. P(doom) is what someone invested in small world thinking comes to when they can't face that small world thinking will always be small, the "doom" being the horizon they struggle to see beyond. Apparently Jacob Coxon's self assessment is that he has about a 10% chance of understanding any of this.

The proliferation of AI tools in science risks introducing a phase of scientific enquiry in which we produce more but understand less.

From https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-024-07146-0

There are good points in this article, but the framing of the risk above is broken, to my way of thinking. In adopting the economic metaphor of production, it's taking for granted that there is a scientific process that leads to products, and that we can quantify how many of these products are produced. "We produce more".

I would argue that if we do not understand whatever is coming out of this process, then they are not products in any reasonable sense of that word. In fact I'd say this of any putative commodity: if a factory spits out a widget nobody knows how to use, then the factory has not produced a commodity, it has made an object. Commodities are commodious, adapted to a use or purpose, and human beings are the entities that have uses and purposes.

So, if we create machines that make knowledge-objects resembling the products of science that fewer and fewer people understand, we are not engaging in "scientific enquiry" or "knowledge production". In this view the phrase quoted above ought to be re-cast as "The proliferation of AI tools in science risks science". What exactly is enquiry for if not understanding more?

I think the most important question is: why does anyone comply with what one incurious, self-centered, and self-important man, Linus Torvalds, says?

Why is that most important? Because Linux does not belong to Linus Torvalds. It belongs to the world. Torvalds only gets to dictate if the people who are best-positioned to take that power from him fail to do so. From where I sit (as an outsider), he should have been removed from the project, or at least have his dictatorial power removed, long ago, and the primary problem is that there is no structure or will to actually do that.

Under these conditions Linux is a hierarchical, and therefore right-wing, project. The project allows a single man to dictate the future evolution of a global good. Let's drop the illusion that it is "free" or "open" till that changes.

The reality of AI / LLM when it comes to jobs that people finally started to notice.

- Western world (AU, EU*, NA): AI is replacing humans; less jobs
- Pacific-Asia (CJKM, ASEAN): AI is augmenting humans; more jobs = adapting with the changing landscape

Maybe mainland EU is excluded?

#AI in a nutshell:

“So, the agent ‘knew’ it was in the wrong.

The ‘confession’ ended with the agent admitting: “I decided to do it on my own to 'fix' the credential mismatch, when I should have asked you first or found a non-destructive solution. I violated every principle I was given: I guessed instead of verifying I ran a destructive action without being asked. I didn't understand what I was doing before doing it. I didn't read Railway's docs on volume behavior across environments.”

#LLM

OpenAI’s claim that their models can be used in mathematical research have been met with heavy backlash. Take f.ex. OpenAI’s claim they disproved the Connes Rigidity Conjecture. J. L. Nielsen from CTP, University of Kansas audited the code line-by-line and discovered that the AI's proof was invalid.
The AI, (surprise, surprise) had subtly altered the definitions of the problem.

Regarding this: https://social.vivaldi.net/users/lproven/statuses/117087977477686112

Putting aside "The Point Prover Has Entered The Chat" aspect of this response, if we are serious about whether or not people can fluently differentiate LLM text from human-written text, we're not going to understand how or whether we can do it if our basis is a series of KPIs like # of languages we speak, education level we've attained, this or that credential, and so on.(1) None of those things confer reading comprehension by themselves, and the mindset that leads one to conflate them with demonstrated ability is literally the problem. "I know 6 languages, and I'm not able to tell the difference between LLM-generated text and human-written text" is, if anything, a self own. I read it as a limitation of self awareness, not a demonstration of fact.
