"Store Norske Leksikon hevder OpenAI har stjålet hele leksikonet deres

Serverloggene til Store Norske Leksikon (SNL) viser at roboter fra OpenAI har lastet ned hele leksikonet 30 millioner ganger."

"Ifølge Erik Bolstad er det ikke bare OpenAI, men også en rekke andre teknologiselskaper, som laster ned artikler fra Store Norske Leksikon."

"AI can't do your job, but an AI salesman can convince your boss to fire you and replace you with a chatbot that can't do your job."

"AIs want the future to be like the past, and AIs make the future like the past. If the training data is full of human bias, then the predictions will also be full of human bias, and then the outcomes will be full of human bias, and when those outcomes are copraphagically fed back into the training data, you get new, highly concentrated human/machine bias.”

Does anybody know of a nice explainer or visualization of how current LLM-chatbots are constructed? Especially concerning the interplay between the core LLM component and other parts (e.g. search, ranking, word filters, classifiers, "calculators", ...)?

An article for Meta to use to train their AI

It turns out Zuckerberg and Meta have used all my books to train their AI. So I wrote this, to show that there are no hard feelings.

‘Andor’ creator won’t make scripts public due to #AI: ‘Why help the f-ing #robots?’

I don’t think all AI is bad, but I do think without #regulation and a solution to its negative environmental impact, it’s a dangerous, slippery slope that needs to be addressed now.

The reason that artificial general intelligence isn't smart now, and may never be, is that it depends on data. And the data for answering most questions just isn't there. No amount of computation can compensate for facts about the world that are not known. #AI #AGI

Analysis: "An unapologetically elitist AI tutor" and Musk online schools launched

"Meet the Educational Entrepreneurs Who Want to Teach a New Generation of Elon Musks"

"Astra Nova School and Synthesis Tutor are two non-traditional, online educational programs that... began with their creators’ admiration for Elon Musk.

"First step,” said one, “stop teachers from teaching.”

Hey, if you, like me, are a US citizen who's had your books/stories/articles stolen by Meta to train AI, you can submit your name to the class action suit using this easy contact form for one of the law firms involved:

Seven of the #RPG books I worked on were pirated by #Meta to train their #AI #Bullshit

Regardless as to my feelings on copyright, the IP owner did not consent to their inclusion in the dataset.

Meta's use is fundamentally immoral to the point that my own works will have an exclusion to their existing permissive licences to say "Fuck you and your idiot autocorrect"

See if they've pirated your work here: theatlantic.com/technology/arc…


Wait. Is this reading correct?

"Under current law, content produced entirely by AI immediately enters the public domain, allowing unrestricted commercial use."

Other news coverage:

"Because many of the Copyright Act's provisions make sense only if an author is a human being, the best reading of the Copyright Act is that human authorship is required for registration."

Yup, today I did a search for something, and an #LLM summary / result combined an article I wrote with another, completely unrelated article, and provided a bullshit response that appeared factual.

Admittedly, it did give my site credit alongside the other article, but NOW, the problem is that it’s smearing my reputation as my article is correct, but the summary is wrong — implying that I’m the one that fucked up.

「 The Spanish bill, which needs to be approved by the lower house, classifies non-compliance with proper labelling of AI-generated content as a "serious offence" that can lead to fines of up to 35 million euros ($38.2 million) or 7% of their global annual turnover 」

In our town hall meeting this morning, an executive told us that they plan to give all software engineer jobs to Al.

When asked what he might have to say of any comfort to us, he said there are still lots of projects to be done in the meantime.

He ended the call by telling us he's uncomfortable with AI coding, knows that we're all uncomfortable with it, and that's exactly where he wants us to be.

For those just learning about LibGen because of the reporting on Meta and other companies training LLMs on pirated books, I’d highly recommend the book Shadow Libraries (open access: direct.mit.edu/books/oa-edited…).

I just read it while working on the Wikipedia article about shadow libraries, and it’s a fascinating history. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadow_l…

I fear the already fraught conversations about shadow libraries will take a turn for the worse now that it’s overlapping with the incredibly fraught conversations about AI training.

#AI #hallucinations: #ChatGPT created a fake child murderer


source: noyb.eu/en/ai-hallucinations-c…

When the Norwegian user Arve Hjalmar Holmen wanted to find out if ChatGPT had any information about him, he was confronted with a made up #horror story: ChatGPT presented the complainant as a convicted criminal who murdered two of his children and attempted to murder his third son. To make matters worse, the #fake story included real elements of his personal #life.

Omg I just found out about vibe coding?? Like they're "developers" but they only use #AI-generated code. And employers are now starting to hire vibe code testers to test the code put out by vibe coders?

So you're telling me that instead of AI replacing developers, it actually makes it necessary to hire two developers to do the job of one developer? Now that's a table that's been turned if I've ever seen one 😆 #programming #SoftwareEngineering

The analytics of my site's traffic have listed chatgpt as a (very minor) source of traffic.

As I was afraid, Cloudflare's option to block LLM crawlers is probably useless.

But also, does it mean that now ChatGPT mentions its sources?
