Land Acknowledgments, but make them Data Acknowledgments that AI providers are required to display and recite before any session may begin.
long-overdue catchup with @knowtheory.net earlier today and came up with an evil thing nobody appears to be doing or publicly talking about with LLMs and agents, and I'm not even gonna yolo blurt this one out onto the streams it's so bad
Wonder what Douglas Adams would be feeling about what's called AI these days given his environmentalism and humanist technophilia
Sure seems like agentic models are being raced to achieve something around 2:14am Eastern Time on August 29th huh
Surefire LLM smell is always the "{thing}, not {otherthing}". Always trying to write in quippy quips like it's trying increase conversion in SEO marketing copy OH WAIT
You know it’s funny, I haven’t actually been trained on that much LLM generated text but I reckon I could imitate it really well and I don’t need like megawatts
ok gotta admit people scavenging old hardware for bits and pieces to build personal AI servers is pretty post apocalyptic cyberpunk
conspiracy theory where thousands of tech workers are being laid off with the hope that they'll spend their time making stuff with AI to show they know AI as a sort of product marketing strategy
why not talk to an LLM when you don't have the energy to make up a guy to be mad at
openai threatening to automate away soc/anth studies but actually also providing an infinitely deep product to study in terms of how people interact with their products
