I'm a climate scientist by trade. Interested in interesting things. Ecology, complexity, politics, social change, music.

  • Five Tech Giants Are Using Enron’s Accounting Strategy to Conceal $1.65 Trillion in AI Debt

  • Also nvidia

  • OpenAI blamed a hacking event on its AI models going rogue. Here are some things to know

    Jump

  • As if this isn't a marketing stunt

  • SpaceX stock drops to a new low and loses $1 trillion in value in a month

    Jump

  • Mine is also in a nominally ethical fund, but they still invest in e.g. nvidia. Not sure about spaceX though

  • SpaceX stock drops to a new low and loses $1 trillion in value in a month

  • Oh, I hadn't clocked until now that 401(k)s are a pension fund. I guess that means they are basically the same as superannuation.

  • Your money in savings and insurance and superannuation funds is often reinvested in shit like this.

    It's worth dropping yours an email and asking whether they do or not..

  • Linus Torvalds tells AI haters to fork off: Linux supremo says contributors opposed to AI use can 'just walk away'

    Jump

  • I was also wondering about the whole "AI content is not copyrightable" thing... Does that potentially screw up copyleft licences?

  • Linus Torvalds tells AI haters to fork off: Linux supremo says contributors opposed to AI use can 'just walk away'

    Jump

  • He does literally say if people have issues with that stance, they can fork Linux..

  • Not many places where there's no wind AND no solar within a reasonable distance of a large population..

  • George Lucas Goes To The Dark Side, Says AI Is ‘The Future’

    Jump

  • I mean, to be fair to the 70s version of Lucas, that's basically how all art works. New combinations of old ideas.

  • When Margret Thatcher died people were singing "Ding dong the witch is dead". What song do you think people will be singing when Donald Trump dies?

    Jump

  • Nina Simone's Sinnerman

  • Lemmy community sidebars need more "related communities" links

    Jump

  • Hell yeah

  • The open-source, DRM-free Open Printer shows off a working prototype

    Jump

  • I suspect because feeding and aligning sheets is much harder than feeding from a roll. Probably requires some sensing hardware, which might be fiddly.

  • Misread the inflection on "Can you not?" and snorted

  • What will the majors changes be after the AI bubble pops?

    Jump

  • Probably:

    • GenAI continues to be used for marketing, and anything else where form matters more than substance
    • anything where meaning is really critical might still use it, but will require solid oversight/governance. Software, research, medicine, teaching, etc.

    Maybe:

    • AI bubble bursts, with ripple effects into the broader economy, particularly in the US. This will be a huge problem if big banks are heavily leveraged for their AI investments (not sure this is the case, but it seems likely). If this happens, the collapse will be much worse than the GFC, perhaps worse than the great depression.
    • Political spillover.. No idea what this will look like, but it's a big trigger...

  • Microsoft 365 Copilot adoption is under 4.5% after 3 years, only 1% use it weekly, yet prices went up

    Jump

  • Corporations and governments are doing it anyway because MS is entrenched

  • Microsoft 365 Copilot adoption is under 4.5% after 3 years, only 1% use it weekly, yet prices went up

    Jump

  • Software supply is inelastic though?

  • What's the most interesting fringe group you've learned about?
