All the tech companies are so excited about generative AI. But why are so many musicians "buying" into the LLM craze? Is it a "sellout"?

Question. I keep hearing some people say that this AI bubble is like the dotcom bubble, but that from the dotcom bubble we eventually got infrastructure for today's internet. But, was the dotcom thing opposed by people? Was it technology that grew organically from genuine demand or was it a few companies forcing it down on everyone? I would like to hear from someone more knowledgeable on these things on the claim that this bubble will pave the way for #ai

Reading through Anthropic's official repo for giving agents various "super skills"[1]... There's an "algorithmic art" skill and the instructions are explicitly encouraging pure deception as one of the key "critical guidelines":

"The philosophy MUST stress multiple times that the final algorithm should appear as though it took countless hours to develop, was refined with care, and comes from someone at the absolute top of their field. This framing is essential - repeat phrases like "meticulously crafted algorithm," "the product of deep computational expertise," "painstaking optimization," "master-level implementation.""

https://github.com/anthropics/skills/blob/main/skills/algorithmic-art/SKILL.md

For someone who's been working in this field for almost 30 years, this "skills.md" file is just the worst... and so far off the mark! 🤮

Touch some effing grass, Anthropic (and all boosters)! How can so many people think this approach is _the_ future? The map is not the terrain...

[1] Alone the premise of this repo is pure comedy gold and pure sadness in equal measures!

I love how the Fediverse helps me find amazing things, such as this NO AI List that includes #Linux flavors/things/OS's without AI/LLM garbage https://starlightnet.work/posts/the-no-ai-list.html #AI #NoAI #Fediverse

Trying to move away from the #Microsoft suite (#Word, #Powerpoint, #Excel), mostly because of their forcing of #Copilot on users.
It seems that the choice is between #LibreOffice or #OpenOffice - which one would you recommend that is most compatible with MS formats, has similar functionalities (but with #NoAI ) and is good for collaboration (e.g. can do tracked changes)?

(Best if it works with #Zotero)

Psst: Did u know we European home computer users had a game that was called "Thing on a SPRING"? And what I'm about 2 announce is just such a lil spring thing… well… or not… um…. a spring thing nevertheless (it's March at least!)… it's a new issue of

RADIO IRRTUM! !!

↓↓↓ Deutsch Version below unten ↓↓↓

Da next issue of #RadioIrrtum! will arrive this Saturday, 2026/03/14, 8:00pm UTC+1/Berlin time/CET. At Alex Berlin at DAB+ K12D in Berlin + Brandenburg and worldwide @ https://www.alex-berlin.de/radio-livestream .

A German language #radioShow exploring the sonic vastness of the #underground. Emitted transmissions may raise attention for new unheard #music. Don't worry about the #GermanLanguage aspect - this is about #music!

So what's in it?

- #AlternativePop
- #BeatlessRap
- #bassMusic
- Chilli #electro
- #cellphoneMusic
- #ChansonKaput
- depressive #Stimmungsschlager covers
- #Dachapunk
- #4track cassette stuff
- dark #harpMusic
- #classicalMusic

There will be some focus on limited recording envs (like playing live only with guitar + looper, using just a phone, or a 8- or even 4 track recording device) – have to admit, this wasn't planned: It happened by accident.

Also: >50% of the titles played can't be found on #Spotify, hehe.
But we've got LOTS of #fediverseMusicians here like…

- @penfriendrocks
- @stanleygrill
- @sonicwalker
- @n3wjack
- @geigerzaehler

You're all making the Fediverse a special and cozy place, u know that? Thank u so much!!
And there is lots of #CreativeCommons content as well. Because Radio Irrtum! will never be friends with the music industry. As there is no "industry" in real music.

I'll post playlist + manuscript later here. And if u have questions? I'll gladly answer. Just ask. CU all on Saturday! :)

This radio show is dedicated to Frau Anna Schmidt. She won't be able to listen anymore; at least not from this planet. R.I.P., Anna.

I just published a new blog post about my #selfhosting plans for 2026 and... I remembered to add this pic (a scan of my own handwriting) at the bottom of the post.

It's now more important than ever: "written by a human"

#NoAI

I was in a meeting and I was trying to provide some relevant #NoAI type articles and could only find four quickly.

Could people add more articles to this thread please?

Please share too!

I am so stubborn about not using AI.
You have no idea.

I will even go as far as writing my own texts, drawing my own images, writing my own code, and reading the whole article or email just by myself. Crazy stuff.

Regarding the last boost: I find LibreOffice to be quite good, it's offline, it's available for Windows if you use that, and it's free. https://www.libreoffice.org

This week I've been rewriting (in Zig) the position-based dynamics & cellular-automata engines used for the cloth sim in my #DANZA art project (check the hashtag for older WIP)... Still endless tweaking, but could already stare at this beauty for hours, literally!

(And of course, I'm also again "dogfooding" http://thi.ng/genart-api for defining/handling parameters and animation timing...)

Hey there, some personal news: I've decided to move on and am therefore looking for a new job starting July.

I loved serving as a program manager with open source projects involving some of the most brilliant software developers out there.

In a future job, I'd like to continue working near the intersection of open source, funding, business, policy and the societal impact of digital technology. But that's a small niche and so I hope that this post might open some doors through my contacts here. Are there OSS foundations or (non-) government orgs looking for staff?

Being a software developer at heart, I have been excited about tech all my life and later found myself involved in various software projects and business ventures big and small. I speak both fluent Nerd and fluent Business and frequently helped translating between the two during my career.

I'm aware that my requirements are a strong filter: Part-time and remote, German timezone. I'm also fairly unenthusiastic about the current generative AI / LLM hype and would prefer to work outside of that bubble.

If you have possible leads, I'd be grateful to hear about it. Thanks in advance and thanks for sharing.

I've created & uploaded video previews of a few more #LinearMemory variations & recommend the download versions for best quality (HD720p @ 60fps)... The actual piece is a realtime (browser based), endless and non-repeating animation. The only things left now are further optimizations and making it dynamically adaptive to different screen/print sizes...

The fact that browsing without built-in AI seems like such an innovative thing these days, should make us all think twice.

Keep exploring!

If your product doesn't use any AI at all,
you will be ahead of the curve.

And you should brag about it.

Terrified about citizens that might be sending private messages they cannot read on Signal -> Sudden panic about "protecting the children" 🙃

Also politicians:

this AI music-video… it’s nonsense and looks so bad…
this song doesn’t deserve it. god is dead, who thought this was a good idea…

the original music video is superior in every way, objectively. there is literally no angle in which it loses. :gutkato_kapaŭskultiloj:
