@kodamachameleon @thedarktangent That “random script” is right there in front of you, less than 400 lines of simple code in clear text. Whatever you’re trying to hint at is factually wrong.

RE: @sboots@mastodon.sboots.ca

looks like the kids are alright:

"There’s that NBC News poll showing AI with worse favorability than ICE and only a little bit above the war in Iran and the Democrats generally" and "31 percent of those Gen Z respondents said they feel angry about AI, up from 22 percent last year."

big recommendation for reading or listening to that piece by patel

@nixCraft@mastodon.social And if you don't trust Goldman Sachs, maybe you believe 6000 executives from the US, UK, Germany and Australia a little bit more. From the study:

"Third, the impact of AI on firm employment and productivity has been small so far. On average, more than 90% of business managers across the four countries estimate no impact of AI on their employment over the past three years. 89% report no impact of AI on their labor productivity over the last three years."

So @1password@1password.social seems to think that now’s a good time to increase prices by 20%.

What’s happening and did no one on their team tell them to read the room with Scott Galloway, Rutger Bregmann, or @pluralistic@mamot.fr?

Thank you for making the decision for me, #1Password. Another US-based subscription cancelled.

@tkissing@mastodon.social @icing@chaos.social @sovtechfund@mastodon.social Even better: #Anthropic’s own employees whipped up some pipeline to channel all the findings to Upwork and similar click-work platforms, which then makes underpaid laborers do the actual work.

@ChrisMayLA6 i have to cringe at the two examples they picked tho: someone who’s in “branding”, and a product manager in “software startups” 😖 couldn’t they find at least one person with a real non-bullshit job and ask them about their thoughts and experiences?

RE: @simon@fedi.simonwillison.net

That's the exact type of pipeline #OpenAI, #Google & Co. want us to build all of our transportation, health, energy, and legal infrastructures on. 🤡

> But as we dug deeper, the real problem emerged: no one on the team could explain why certain design decisions had been made or how different parts of the system were supposed to work together. The code might have been messy, but the bigger issue was that the theory of the system, their shared understanding, had fragmented or disappeared entirely.

@frida For people who actually want to do work in the spheres of EU & Open Source, is there anything we can expect from this? It's the first time I've participated in such a call, but I wonder what the best possible outcome of this would possibly be. Thank you for sharing! 💕

Die Universität der Künste Berlin #UdK ist vorgestern nachgezogen. Laut Präsidium hat der AS in einer Sondersitzung “nach intensiver und bisweilen kontrovers geführter Debatte beschlossen, dem vom Land Berlin vorgeschlagenen Änderungsvertrag [mit deutlicher Mehrheit] zuzustimmen.”

@peterrenshaw The fact that you can clearly see the URL confirms my point. If someone doesn’t trust that host that’s totally fine; however, that’s not the script or its author’s fault.

@monoxyd @breitband Aber schade, dass Kollege @schmiste_ch auch keine empirischen Belege in der Studie ausfindig machen konnte. Das gleiche gilt für die Theorie der Echo Chambers, die ihr in eurem Gespräch auch kurz streift. Ich bin gefühlt bei euch… aber die Sachlage ist noch echt dünn, um unsere Thesen zu bestätigen. Und im Falle der Echo Chambers das jetzt seit Jahrzehnten.
