Schaut für mich wirklich so aus, also ob #Meta (#Facebook) bereits festgelegt hat, dass sie "Open Source AI" machen (youtu.be/Xu8VihPQcgE) und die OSI sich nun (zu) stark verbiegt, um deren Vorgehensweise (Trainingsdaten nicht zu veröffentlichen) als "Open Source AI" zu adeln: opensource.org/blog/how-we-pas

@Debby @remixtures

In theory, I'd fully agree.

But is rushing to open wash any black box with [a new "Open Source AI" that nobody want (except BigTech)](samjohnston.org/2024/10/15/the).

Omini di burro.

Come l'omino di burro del romanzo di Collodi, chi introduca nelle scuole e nelle università strumenti di "intelligenza artificiale generativa", promette agli studenti un Paese dei Balocchi in cui potranno scrivere senza aver pensato.

Un pensiero critico sull'uso e l'introduzione dell'AI generativa a #scuola @scuola @nilocram @iamarf

State-affiliated Chinese hackers penetrated AT&T, Verizon, Lumen and others; they entered their networks and spent months intercepting US traffic - from individuals, firms, government officials, etc - and they did it all without having to exploit any code vulnerabilities. Instead, they used the back door that the FBI requires every carrier to furnish:

Turns out @tarakiyee was right on Open Source AI in "Is the Open Source Bubble about to Burst?" tarakiyee.com/is-the-open-sour

I really think that every marginalized group that suffered and systemic oppression should join the discussion about

If a black box will be distributed, regulated and trusted as , no human right organization will be able to inspect the dataset used to train it.

And if you can implant undetectable backdoors in a machine learning model (see arxiv.org/abs/2204.06974), you can much more easily implant undetectable bias that will hurt some groups of people to benefit others.

people and victims of systemic should really demand transparency,...before it's too late!

TIL that a can be defined as .

Granting the “freedom to fine tune” cannot be enough to qualify as Open Source AI just like granting the “freedom to configure” cannot be enough to qualify as Open Source Software.

Yet, for it's enough.

And you can't provide effective solutions to the problem they pretend to see into making training data available.

Or you will be silenced.

1000 richest people are approched. "The end of the world is here. Time to go to your doomsday bunker", they are told. The billionaires nodded. They knew this was coming. They were prepared.

So they gathered their loved ones and locked themselves in luxury bunkers. No contact to outside world.

10 years later they emerge. The world has healed. The air is breathable, people are happy. "What was the catastrophy?" they ask the first person they meet.

She screams: "THEY GOT OUT!!!"

Il browser chiede a Google i trend, inviandogli come minimo il tuo ip (e forse altre info) per determinare la tua area geografica di riferimento.

E quel che è peggio, è abilitato di default e per disabilitarlo devi cliccare sui risultati (quindi DOPO il primo invio).

NB: nel primo messaggio ho scritto una cosa probabilmente errata: forse non invia la stringa di ricerca (non ho provato).

What happens if the proposed EU chat control regulation passes?

This series of news reports and press releases imagines the first year of cascading consequences.

It illustrates how the well-intentioned-but-flawed proposal will make detecting child abuse imagery more difficult while harming innocent people, national security, and the EU’s digital sovereignty.

Please share. The EU resumes discussions of the proposal today.
