Zuckerberg wants AI to optimize and empower each of us as individuals, but society isn't billions of individuals. We depend on each other as a collective, @petterbb1969.bsky.social writes. AI individualism is not good for society. www.techpolicy.press/no-zuckerber...
Here's John Gallagher on orbital argumentation: meresophistry.substack.com/p/seeking-hu...
Do you know of studies that actually evaluate use of LLMs in the public sector or other kinds of knowledge work? Teknologirådet in Norway just published a report evaluating their own use of LLMs, based on careful logs from 35 cases. teknologiradet.no/publication/...
The AI-generated podcast paper is out! I generaetd podcasts from four different source documents and an PDF using NotebookLM and found that in every case it translated cultural contexts to a standard, white, American language and context. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...
AI deciding what's most important to you is an old idea bound to fail. Here's a video I recorded with the "Narrative Clip" in 2014 - it promised to capture the meaningful moments of my day, and ended up photographing billboards and strangers because it focused on faces. jilltx…
I wrote this up as a blog post so I can easily find it again in the future. If you see any examples of this phenomenon I'd love it if you could share them in the comments! jilltxt.net/misaligned-c...
På tide å minne om hvordan KI «oppskalerer» bilder. Obama-eksempelet er fra 2020 men prinsippet har ikke endret seg - et menneske ser lett at det lavoppløselige er Obama. KI legger derimot til en statistisk prediksjon ut fra helt andre bilder, og Obama blir hvit. www.theverge.…
Dangerous referencing like this is endemic to heavily AI-assisted peer reviewed papers. Allowing the publication of LLM-generated scholarslop (to use @berrydm.bsky.social's term) is destroying science. It's an epistemic carcinogen, as @glenberman.bsky.social wrote. doi.org/10.…
This is a misaligned citation and it's not random: LLMs will avoid citing the core texts they should cite for a topic, but will cite connected texts (e.g. by an author that should have been cited elsewhere) in unrelated places. My article on this will have this DOI doi.org/10.…
Recent commentary
80% of the articles published in AI & Society seem to be AI slop these days. I want to find the good articles but I hate wading through the slop.
My article on AI-generated podcasts already has three citations and at least one is AI-generated. Look at this fine example of an ultra-vague statement with a drive-by citation that doesn't match the claim. The entire article is 100% AI-generated according to Pangram.
