Curious about if/how the regime relates to the person, i.e. Autoctacy vs. Autocrats and Democracy vs. Democrats?

Just received my copy of @mcfaulmike.bsky.social 's latest book "Autocrats vs. Democrats". Looking forward to reading it and expanding my horizon, noting that I have grown up in a constitutional monarchy (Luxembourg) and currently living in a direct democracy (Switzerland)!

I just came back from a week at Roland Garros in Paris. Much more COVID-like coughing going on, when compared to last year and the 2024 Olympics. Apart from some security guys, I was the only one wearing a mask. And I got no comments. Interesting!!!

Giving back :-)

(Im)possibility of Automated Hallucination Detection in Large Language Models Is automated hallucination detection possible? In this work, we introduce a theoretical framework to analyze the feasibility of automatically detecting hallucinations produced by large language models...

Interesting paper on LLM hallucination arxiv.org/abs/2504.17004

Finally, the second edition of my book "Design Thinking for Strategy" has been published with some hopefully interesting additions regarding customer jobs to be done: link.springer.com/book/10.1007...

Hi! I have decided to move my insights newsletter, including my monthly book review, to Substack. If you are interested in my writings, please subscribe at diderich.substack.com.
Please note that all my book reviews past, present, and future, will remain free to read.

On a personal note: I have modernised my personal website at www.sigmadream.com. Any feedback is welcome. In addition, I have moved on from Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter/X and post my photos using the BlueSky handle cdsp.photo.

Still, again, so true: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ej7d... #savetherich #usa

Misinformation isn't random - it's strategic. 🧵

In the first cross-national comparative study, we examine 32M tweets from politicians.
