Even if AGI weren’t science fiction, the first successful one would be less “skynet destroys us all” and more “Laika howls in space until she dies”.
“Texas A&M Professor Wrongly Accuses Class of Cheating With ChatGPT – Rolling Stone”
This Space matches information in model cards to proposed regulatory compliance descriptions in the EU AI Act. This is a prototype to explore the feasibility of automatic checks for compliance
“Ethics & Society at Hugging Face - a Hugging Face Space by society-ethics”
“Model Card Regulatory Check - OECD.AI”
So Hugging Face and its ethics team is doing an amazing job at trying to bring OSS models both into regulatory compliance and ethical behaviour
medieval people fucking loved cats.
“ChatGPT is not ‘artificial intelligence.’ It’s theft.”
If the tech industry wanted to win hearts and minds, maybe pissing off writers by threatening their livelihood might not have been the smartest move?
I’m going to have to write a blog post on what the current version of the EU AI Act actually says, aren’t I?

I see dev recruitment continues to be a shitshow
I expected VC types and hangers-on to uncritically accept lies about the EU AI Act. That’s normal
It’s more disappointing to see those with sensible opinions on dev, management, and were critical of crypto fall for it as well

“Ireland’s privacy regulator is a gamekeeper-turned-poacher”
Tech punditry “EU AI Act means that OSS language models don’t get safe harbour protections! Model APIs will be illegal! Crime! Crime!”

![5. This Regulation shall not affect the application of the provisions on the liability of intermediary service providers set out in Chapter II, Section 4 of Directive 2000/31/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council31 [as to be replaced by the corresponding provisions of the Digital Services Act].](https://cdn.uploads.micro.blog/5097/2023/4cad739d1d.png)
Looks like the tech industry and media is having an apopleptic fit about the proposed EU AI act.
Which makes me even more optimistic that it might be on the right track.
So far, generative AI is a one hit wonder among consumers. The only service with uptake is ChatGPT. People don’t seem to care about Bing Chat or the rest
It’ll be interesting to see whether the “AI everywhere in everything” strategy popularises AI or just turns people off
I just published “Google Bard is a glorious reinvention of black-hat SEO spam and keyword-stuffing”
…where I celebrate the fact that Google seems to be planning on bringing back the days of rampant keyword manipulation of search engine results
Medium-free link to Doctorow’s post.
From 2019, but useful background to the current situation.
But when it comes to picking and choosing what TV shows and films to greenlight, no, they don’t have a data-based algorithm.
