The Solicitors Regulation Authority has issued a warning notice about solicitors and their misuse of AI:
> We are concerned about two areas in particular. The first relates to court, or other, documents containing false or incorrect information, including citations, as a result of the misuse of AI. AI tools can produce 'hallucinations', generating fictitious cases, references or seemingly factual assertions that may appear convincing despite having no basis in fact.
> We are also concerned that those we regulate are not fully considering and appropriately mitigating risks to client confidentiality when using AI systems, particularly in relation to clients' personal data or other confidential information...

🚨 AI GENERATED🚨
Here we are again with AI generated images not being labelled as such and being passed off as people's own photos/work.
@Jess.Stetson and I went through them because we were suspicious of the hot-air balloon one and it turns out more of them were generated than we expected.
Either label your shit as AI or even better, (and much preferred) STOP USING THEM ENTIRELY.
By not disclosing them as such, you are deceiving your audience and are taking away attention from people who have actually put the hardwork, time, effort and artistic vision to create their own original pieces.
This fucking sucks.

So much so, the anonymous finance worker admitted, that his firm now actively avoids seeking out AI-literate STEM graduates, and opts to comb through humanities students instead.

Bosses Horrified as "AI Native" College Graduates Hit the Workplace

When the book-burning by GenAI/LLM companies was revealed, the defences of this were "oh the books aren't rare" and "oh they're only buying books from pulping companies that will be destroyed anyway".
Neither of these is true. The AI companies are buying bulk orders of obscure titles from ordinary booksellers:
theguardian.com/technology/202…
None of these are bestsellers, and none of them are checked to see if they are archived anywhere. But they *will* be physically destroyed by the AI companies after sucking out all the info from them.

"Ein neues Meta-Patent zeigt, wohin die Reise bei den smarten Brillen des Konzerns gehen könnte. Die Meta KI-Brille soll demnach künftig Gesichter erkennen, Personen identifizieren, Aktionen beobachten und daraus automatisch Video-Highlights erstellen können."
#noAI Nachdem nun jedes Kind mit KI eine App vibecoden kann, bekommen wir bei musermeku fast täglich Anfragen, wir sollen über solche Apps berichten.
Uns sind diese KI Schrott-Apps leider herzlich egal. Wir nehmen uns nicht mal Zeit, auf diese Mails zu antworten.
Museen sollten ausschließlich mit Anbietern arbeiten, die eine fachliche Expertise im Kulturbereich haben. Und nicht mit irgendwem, der mit KI ahnungslos schnell eine App zusammengewürfelt hat.

Studie widerspricht Anthropic und OpenAI: Autonome KI-Forschung ist noch weit entfernt
the-decoder.de/studie-widerspr…
> KI-Agenten mit Claude Opus 4.8 und GPT-5.6 Sol erhielten sechs Tage, 3.000 Dollar Budget und GPU-Zugang, um eigenständig KI-Forschungspapiere zu verfassen. Originalautoren unveröffentlichter NeurIPS-Papers bewerteten die Ergebnisse mit "Reject". Laut der Studie unter Beteiligung von Princeton und dem UK AI Security Institute meistern Frontier-Modelle zwar das komplette Research-Engineering, scheitern aber an Forschungsurteil, kreativer Problemlösung und der Fähigkeit, gescheiterte Ansätze aufzugeben.
Und wieder ist nachgewiesen, dass die Behauptungen, sich selbst produzierender KI Systeme existieren, Phantastereien sind. 🤷

Einordnung: Für mich ist das ein Realitätscheck für die Debatte um »autonome Hacker-KI« Vollautonom war der Angriff offenbar nicht. Trotzdem sinkt die Schwelle, mehrere Angriffsschritte parallel und automatisiert abarbeiten zu lassen. Genau dieser Skalierungseffekt dürfte praktisch wichtiger sein als spektakuläre KI-Schlagzeilen. Halten wir fest: KI-Agenten können Aufklärung, Ausprobieren und Wiederholen massiv beschleunigen. Das verschiebt den Aufwand für Angriffe - und damit auch die Anforderungen an Erkennung und Reaktion.

I’m with you on this. #AI is being so widely rejected, and its wide-reaching negative consequences so widely destructive, that I suspect the AI bubble will burst in a year or so. With that AI will end up a machine learning tool of business automation and research, rather than a generative or agentic tool used by individuals. Embracing AI now is like building on the surface tension of water…
No, Mastodon, I am serious:
If AI companies are shredding books
And Google is nerfing search engines to make you ask AI
What do we do?
Like, I am the generation that has learned to use a card catalog. I can do archival searching, and annotating my own books.
I am just in a place of general anxiety about the future of accessing, saving, and sharing information.
Any thoughts welcome.

The causal link between source code and assembly is different than what's between #AI coding and source code. From machine code to assembly to source code to the ecosystem of code libraries, there is a causal chain with material reality (electrons positioned on silicon chips) on one end and human experience at the other.
Probabilistic text prediction breaks that chain; you can't decode it in the same way, even if you're as smart as Elon Musk says he is.
But there's a larger point here.
I’ve seen many engineers dunking on this position but I think it’s reasonable.Vibe coding is essentially replacing “no code” platforms and arguably the recent sale of Airtable is an indication of how that segment is compressing.
Those users have no need for source code, it’s simply unnecessary.
Details about Cami Clark, the wife of Dario Amodei, are scant online, where efforts appear to have been made to remove references to her.
But she has been a key advisor to the Anthropic CEO as his company hurtles toward what could be a $2 trillion public offering this fall.
In a profile, the Wall Street Journal sought to fill in Clark's biography, including her time as the founder of what she described as a “revolutionary porn company” where she sought investment from Jeffrey Epstein, and dated Google CEO Eric Schmidt #anthropic #epstein #EpsteinFiles #epsteinclass #ai

Screenshots from photographer Nateinthewild on Threads. Apparently AI in some new smartphones (and cameras?) will give you an AI-enhanced image rather than what you actually took, unless, I assume, you disable it in settings (if you’re even allowed to do so). I absolutely hate this. Editing an image with human intent is one thing, but I want to start from a baseline of what I actually saw. I don’t want my camera to lie to me based on what it “thinks” I want to see!

Your regular reminder:
ALL LLMs are ultimately just autocomplete. There is no thought, no creativity, no consciousness, no insight. It's just autocomplete with infinite monkeys. What turbocharged autocomplete can do is legit impressive, but it is still just turbocharged autocomplete.
