I dislike the overconfidence and dishonesty of AI, but even more so the overconfidence and dishonesty of the people who hype it.
Hello #fediverse,
I have a question. Because everyone is integrating these stupid chatbots for "summaries", I am very skeptical of having my work circulating, even just internally within the university cohort, because I don't want my stuff to be fed to LLMs.
Is there a way to export these files in a was that when people feeds them to their "assistants" the assistants' dataset gets "poisoned" and can scrap it properly?

The most likely AI apocalypse
OpenAI and Anthropic are trying to build an artificial general intelligence (AGI) — a machine that can outperform humans at all labor. That could lead to a permanent oligarchy.Eric Levitz (Vox)
RE: neuromatch.social/@MolemanPete…
What really makes me wonder is the fact that many people are not even reading what the chatbot generates. It's not that AI is a tool used for brainstorming or improvement, but just a shortcut to cheat. I'm unsure whether the solution is to ban it completely or to better regulate its use in academia.
One thing that could certainly help is standardized rules among academic institutions, but right now we are seeing different policies here and there.
(... And I guess this is only the tip of the iceberg of the more general crisis affecting education)

I don’t use AI for anything in my academic or personal life. I value almost nothing more than my ability to think and to freely express myself. Even when I make mistakes, at least they are my mistakes.

"Students are not just undermining their ability to learn, but to someday lead."Will Teague (HuffPost)
"At precisely 4:00 PM Eastern Time on November 19, 2025, Nvidia Corporation released third-quarter earnings that exceeded Wall Street expectations. Revenue reached $57.01 billion against a consensus estimate of $54.9 billion. Earnings per share came in at $1.30 versus the anticipated $1.26. The stock surged 5% in after-hours trading, adding approximately $130 billion to the company’s market capitalization.
Eighteen hours later, the Nasdaq Composite closed down 1.21%. Nvidia’s gains evaporated. Bitcoin, which had briefly rallied, fell 2.07% to $89,567. What happened in those 18 hours represents something unprecedented in financial markets: algorithmic trading systems detected accounting irregularities faster than human analysts could read the earnings footnotes.
This is the story of that detection, the fraud it uncovered, and the systemic collapse now unfolding in real time."

The Algorithm That Detected a $610 Billion Fraud: How Machine Intelligence Exposed the AI Industry’s Circular Financing Scheme
