'AI Is African Intelligence': The Workers Who Train AI Are Fighting Back Kenyan workers are still the underpaid labor behind AI training, moderation, and sex chatbots. The Data Labelers Association is fighting back.

I met with AI data labelers in Kenya who are organizing their colleagues to fight the brutal working conditions and horrible pay given to the workers at the "bottom of the AI supply chain." They believe the NDAs they've signed are unenforceable so are speaking out:

Heathcliff holds a large tuba and toots loudly at some birds, who flutter away at his approach. A couple watches him play, and one of them says "Most cats rely on stealth."

GitHub - adobe/openpbr-bsdf: Adobe's reference implementation of the OpenPBR BSDF Adobe's reference implementation of the OpenPBR BSDF - adobe/openpbr-bsdf

Adobe just released an Apache-2.0 licensed reference implementation of the OpenPBR Surface standard, extracted from their in-house Eclair renderer.

Neat trick: the reference implementation cross-compiles for C++, GLSL, Cuda, Metal, and Slang!

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a giant squid wearing a yellow Bart t-shirt and some terrible hypebeast shorts is looking in the mirror. It says, “need groceries… but all my clothes are in the laundry.” Panel 2: the squid, now also wearing hot pink crocs, exits its apartment and says, “eh. I won’t see anyone.” Panel 3: two fisherman are pulling the squid to the surface of the water and pointing at it. An overlayed news caption reads: RARE SQUID SIGHTED - the fit was crazy

But my favorite pictures from Venice is not cats but this combination that I think of as “missed connections.”

Mercury and Venus photobombing our view of the Sun.

The Sun itself is hiding behind the central white circle and you can clearly see it spewing hot plasma into space.

Born on this day in 1621, in Delft, Egbert van der Poel. Famed for chronicling disaster & destruction. So appropriate! Here, village being plundered and burned at night.

J'adore lire les débats d'auditeurs éclairés qui cherchent à savoir quelle est la meilleure interprétation d'une pièce de musique classique, alors que moi j'ai une règle universelle qui répond à ça en toute occasion: la meilleure c'est celle que j'ai écouté en premier, c'est tout 🤷‍♀️

In my U.S. Civil Rights Movements class, we spend a lot of time thinking about historical memory. When movements get reduced to a few iconic leaders, the collective labor that made change possible disappears from view. It also obscures an important lesson: collective action is effective & difficult.

Only the painted empty wooden frame is recognizable as portrait, Mateo says, for the rest, a common visage is to be advised at all times. Nemo, which is to say Ne-Homo, which is to say Nullus, and that everyone knows how influential nil truly is, everyone ought to say nil is nothing, but nobody says it because it's clear to everyone, it wins wars and systematizes the national budget, it fills you up and revolutionizes human thought and Nobody alone can do what nobody is allowed to do: to show oneself or even not to show oneself in an empty frame, Mateo says, whereas all the others are branded with eternally immutable, but fading colors, with an irreversible expression, and the same interchangeable likeness, imitations who have imitated and shall be imitated.

Fifty years after New Zealand stopped whaling, humpback population showing signs of recovery Breeding is getting more competitive, suggesting the population is growing, a new study shows.

This is a marvelous change not only for the Humpback whale 🐋 population but for all of us. We need to keep our gentle giants from going extinct.

Émeute avec des chaises de bistrot qui volent dans le quartier du siège du Figaro engineering business.B9 In April 1950, the publication of Skorzeny's memoirs by the French newspaper Le Figaro caused 1,500 communists to riot outside the journal's headquarters, 40]

Le Figaro qui râle parce que des stals veulent tout casser le figaro.
En même temps, à quel moment vous vous êtes dit que c'était une bonne idée de publier les mémoires du SS Skorzeny (en 1950 brdl)
