The Verge headline: "Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would 'kill' the AI industry."

"Asking enslaved people if they actually want to work the plantations for free would kill the cotton industry."

-- Nick Clegg

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems... SIMON: What? SHAPIRO: ...Or saying... SIMON: You imagine that? SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over. SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level. SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this. SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

AI-Gitto erstatter menneske-Gitte, og det skal vi vænne os til På jobcenteret i Nyborg bliver man budt velkommen af Gitto. Hun er en AI-avatar og bare et eksempel på kommunernes øgede brug af kunstig intelligens.

@Kjaerulv Inden længe vil DR formentlig melde ud, at kilderne skal vænne sig til at bliver interviewet af en DR AI-bot https://www.dr.dk/nyheder/indland/ai-gitto-erstatter-menneske-gitte-og-det-skal-vi-vaenne-os-til

@Kjaerulv Hvordan bliver man slettet?

Side point on #ChatControl: When I worked on the law in the European Parliament, in the face of questionably legal, and highly problematic behavior by DG HOME, I prepared a whitepaper on why it was such a terrible Idea.

As it is in the public interest, I have decided to make that white paper […]

I currently read Alex Vitale's The End Of Policing. I was skeptical at first. After about a third I thought "Yes OK that's true but mostly applies to the US, right?"

But then, where Vitale argues #police has always been a political, never a #crime-fighting tool, I suddenly realised:

Holy shit […]

@jmaris The article mentions Denmark, where the de facto mandatory eID (MitID) has led to a situation with 20% of the population feeling digitally excluded from parts of society.

@Kjaerulv Giv samtykke til at blive masseovervåget.. Det er kun billeder og links.. Forslaget er juridisk holdbart, for ellers ville man ikke kunne gennemføre det..

Det er pudsigt som tilhængerne af #chatkontrol (S-alene-i-DK) har travlt med at underdrive omfanget af overvågningen https://www.dr.dk/nyheder/udland/eu/omstridt-lovforslag-splitter-regeringens-europa-parlamentarikere-vores-sidste-rest

I sidste uge skrev Peter Hummelgaard i Altinget, at det er en falsk fortælling om #chatkontrol forslaget, at regeringen vil overvåge private beskeder. Kritikken var underlødig, og så videre i Hummelgaards værste stil.

Ganske bemærkelsesværdigt, når det nu står direkte i lovteksten, at alle […]

@jeppe Hvad kan TV2 appen som man ikke kan se på tv2.dk hjemmesiden? Der er gået inflation i at lave apps.

🇪🇺EU Commission on #ChatControl: "We just scan like a spam filter; your messages are still encrypted." It's a Trojan horse! 🐴 That's like someone reading your letter before it's placed in your mailbox!

EDRi mythbuster […]

A flowery message saying, "Immigrants make the country great" in white text on a pale green background, with flowers around the words.

Instagram slaps a warning over the entire screen, saying, "Sensitive content. This photo may contain graphic or violent content." There is a button saying "See why" and another saying "see photo."

2. What Instagram put over her post.

* Can we please get serious about users' rights in the face of state action that is laundered through platforms? Users deserve NOTICE when states target their speech, including through informal channels. And they -- not just platforms -- deserve STANDING to challenge it. 3/

@AndrzejWasowski I den situation bruger du ikke default browser på telefonen (Firefox), men Android WebView Chrome] som er den browser der bruges indbygget i apps (fx MitID app'en) [@jeppe

@AndrzejWasowski Med MitID app'en eller kodeviser? (det er muligt, at de har lavet det om mht. Google Chrome krav - de nævner dog stadig Google Chrome som eneste understøttede browser https://www.mitid.dk/hjaelp/hjaelpeunivers/tekniske-krav/) @jeppe

@jeppe Alle andre browsere end Google Chrome (ingen behøver betale for det råd). Der er bare lige det, at på en Android telefon kræver MitID at Chrome er default browser.. (står det i Tænk artiklen?)

@1br0wn Conflating age checks with identity checks is not exactly "safe and secure"

Har forsøgt at samle op på #alderverifikation og debatten om det - og har taget et forslag fra kasperd@westergaard.social her fra Mastodon med i artiklen - skriv endelig kommentarer her og på bloggen - jeg tror det er en vigtig debat den her #dkpol #itpol […]

@Kjaerulv I see, det var altså kundernes skyld, fordi de betalte for mange gange med kort. Hvis bare de havde brugt kontanter, var Nets' systemer ikke gået ned.. #ironi

@jim Essentially a warrant canary until the UK government prohibits any service provider from speaking about TCNs

@jim Tried to different IP geolocated in Denmark. In both cases, I am asked to login and confirm that I am over 18 (since I deleted my Reddit account after they started selling user data to OpenAI, I cannot check what age verification check is required outside the UK).

@jim This is not limited to visitors from the UK

"Essentially, the company is presenting itself as a legitimate, legal business, but is selling the same sort of data that was previously typically sold by anonymous criminals on shady forums or underground channels." #soundsfamilliar […]

EU is demanding that every site use age verification technology, while insisting it do things it cannot do, and behave in a manner it cannot behave. This is not policy making. This is wishful thinking, with a side of "we'll just blame the tech companies for not waving their magic wand."

The option WiFi AI in the Unifi Controller settings.

Last night I spent hours trying to figure out why my rpi zero 2W hates my Unifi APs. Turns out, AI was the reason. Had to turn off 'WiFi AI'. Goddamnit. #AI #internetofshit

@jeppe Næppe, udover at klage til BEC om at de tvinger dig ind i Google's smartphone univers. En GrapheneOS telefon med locked bootloader vil formentlig give samme fejl, fordi den ikke er godkendt som Google Android telefon.

@jeppe Din /e/os/ telefon er næppe rootet, selv om BEC påstår dette.
