Hey ChatGPT, write me a fictional paper: these LLMs are willing to commit academic fraud Mainstream chatbots presented varying levels of resistance to deliberate requests for fabrication, study finds.

'All major large language models (LLMs) can be used to either commit academic fraud or facilitate junk science, a test of 13 models has found.'

All versions of Claude are 'the most resistant to committing fraud'.

Which LLM is your university encouraging students to use most? Asking for a friend.

👀 Over the last few months, I’ve been working with the terrific triumvirate @spparkle.bsky.social, @emiliekmmurphy.bsky.social & Hannah Yip to set up “Sonance: A Journal of Early Modern Sound Studies”, a diamond open access journal dedicated to historic sounds in all their wondrous & eclectic forms.

I'm hoping to propose a panel for the SCS on the 1570s, that most pivotal decade in the later Reformation. If you're interested in joining me, send me a DM. #reformazing

GOP congresswoman wants to ban strippers in schools but can't name a time when that happened - LGBTQ Nation She instead said that the ban would actually apply to books that mention LGBTQ+ people and ban any mention of trans people in schools.

In 1954 the village of Châteauneuf-du-Pape passed a municipal ordinance forbidding "cigares volants" — flying saucers — from taking off, flying over, or landing in the village.

To their credit, not a single UFO has landed in the southern Rhône since that day.

Screen cap from the New York Times AI promotion, sorry I mean article, "The New Fabio is Claude". They call the thief using AI to make money on the works of other people a "writer". Future Fiction's is a company that produces AI slop based on stolen texts. Hence it wasn't West who came up with a plot, it was someone else, that the AI theft machine stole from. The quote is: "The writer Elizabeth Ann West, one of Future Fiction's founders, who came up with the plot of "Bridesmaids and Bourbon", believes the audicence would be bigger if the books weren't labeled as A.I. The novels, which are available on Amazon, come with a discolaimer on their product page: "This story was produced using author-directed AI tools." "If you hide that there's A.I., it sells just fine," she said."

So, I can see some reasons for this.

People know AI is theft and don't wanna pay you for stealing.

People don't like they way AI theft macines put out words.

Not noticing without lables might be because if you buy a book, it's too late. Doesn't matter if you realise it's AI. You already payed.

This is amazing! I miss his voice...

A putto is sitting on an early modern type case, a box made for the different types during the hand-press era. One needed to pick up each type for a letter or symbol etc. and compose each word, text, and page. The putto blows also soap bubbles: in each bubble is a letter, and the word formed is VANITAS, meaning "vanity". This detail was published in a German speaking newspaper, "Monatliche Nachrichten einicher Merkwürdigkeiten" in 1751. VD18 90722892.

A putto blowing soap bubbles, sitting on a type case full of type, and the letters in the bubbles read as: VANITAS (vanity).

A beautiful reflection of human writing and publishing, #skystorians

Det positiva jag tar med mig från det här är att 99 procent trots allt inte är 100 procent. Heja marknadsvården!

Watch this movie - it's funny, like all of Méliès!

Ex-Meta lobbyist put in charge of EU's digital rules: 'Tech oligarchy writing its own rulebook' Pressure is growing to drop the appointment of a former Meta lobbyist, elected as an MEP in 2024, from a file which could rewrite the EU's regulation of US tech giants.

Moderaternas partigrupp i EU, EPP, är känd för att gå i lobbyisternas och storföretagens ledband.
Men det här är ändå något av ett rekord. Metas främste lobbyist ska ta fram lagstiftning om EUs digitala regler.

Grovt språk fyller en viktig funktion i att ge uttryck för känslor som är fullt rimliga i det här fallet.

Kristersson är en korrupt liten bedragare och ett principlöst svin, som inte ens blinkar inför att förstöra liv, och det bör sägas högt och ofta.

Snubblade över Wikipediaartikeln om gnagaren Oligoryzomys microtis, som verkar sakna trivialnamn på flesta språk.

Förutom tyska, som har tagit ansvar: Kleinohr-Zwergreisratte. Småörad dvärgrisråtta.

Bra namn. Allting med den här gnagaren är litet. Uppfattat.

In the Holocaust, Jews faced a continuing series of laws forbidding them to do certain activities & occupations. The goal was to remove them from society. The US is now doing this to trans ppl. Generally, once one State brings in such laws, others follow.

can someone explain this simply?

im reading historians who do database work and claim in published articles that LLMs are good for data cleaning. so what i cannot get my head round is this: do you check all of the data for hallucinations? 🗃️

BBC News screenshot shows GB bob sled team and reads “Team GB face uphill task for four-man bobsleigh medal Winter Olympics • 39m ago”

deeply unfair. the other teams, as i understand it, ride DOWN the hill

as it happens, I made this in a haste and with several mistakes in the programme of the three panels... here the correct (I hope) version

[9] … so take your paper [I had a second one in my bag] & everywhere the article says Gay, Lesbian or LGBT replace that word with Jew or Jewish, & see what you think.

Twenty minutes later all three looked up from Ireland’s supposedly liberal Times & were horrified. The thing is it worked with…

My introduction to the law took place when I was a child & discovered my being gay was a crime with a jail sentence [or worse, walled up in the Central Mental Hospital to be experimented on]. As a result, like many minorities, I realised that the law was about oppression & not rights [1]

Moderaterna vill kastrera pedofiler: ”Framgångsrikt” Moderaterna vill se över möjligheterna att införa kemisk kastrering för pedofiler. Efter valet vill partiet se över om behandlingen ska bli ett krav vid villkorlig frigivning. – Vi ser att andra lände...

Men herregud! Befinner vi oss på 50-talet?!

Alla som vill se en opposition, INKLUSIVE SOSSAR som vill se vänsterpolitik, bör se till att krympa S andel av rösterna i valet så mycket det bara går.

Gå till V eller Mp. Vägra arbeta för dem i valrörelsen. För liv.

Bara så får ni tillbaka ert parti från lobbysossarna.

Detta med att jag återkommer till att Socialdemokratins huvudverksamhet är gaslighting?

Tidigare länkat DN-reportage om SSU:aren i Köping som riskerar utvisning är EXAKT vad jag menar.

De låtsas stå för en politik som de släppte för 30 år sedan, för att hålla liv i partiet, men GÖR raka motsatsen.

It's almost as if AI is trained on human input

Research-Creation in the early Middle Ages: the example of Hibernicus Exul : Find an Expert : The University of Melbourne <p> The pivotal role played by Irish scholars in preserving and transmitting ancient learning during the early Middle Ages is well known even beyond the academy, thanks to popularising works such as ‘How the Irish Saved Civilization’. Yet a great deal of work remains to be done on individual Irish figures working in continental Europe during the eighth to tenth centuries in order to establish more rigorously the Irish contribution. The shadowy figure known as ‘Hibernicus Exul’ (‘the Irish exile’) provides an ideal test-case for this work: the author of thirty-eight Latin poems, on scholarly, political, and comic topics, his works appear in a single manuscript, Vatican Reg. Lat. 2078. This is an important and influential poetic anthology from the heart of the Carolingian Renaissance, a period of intense cultural and intellectual activity in eight- and ninth-century Europe during which the literature and learning of the ancient Graeco-Roman world was rediscovered and concerted efforts were made to standardise and widen access to educational systems, with significant consequences for the intellectual history of western Europe. The PhD student recruited will write the first monograph-length study of Hibernicus Exul, setting his work in the context of the manuscript, addressing the controversial question of his possible identification with the better- known Carolingian scholar Dúngal, and demonstrate how the poet exemplifies the nature of medieval Irish literature, which simultaneously aims to educate and to entertain, and can in many ways be seen as a predecessor of today’s Research-Creation. </p> <p> <strong>Please note below additional requirements when submitting your Expressions of Interest:</strong> </p> <ul> <li>Additional requirements: <ul> <li> <strong>Statement of research interest [max. 1000 words]</strong> </li> <li> <strong>MA in a related field, or equivalent, to be completed by the programme start date.</strong> </li> <li> <strong>Evidence of at least six semesters of Latin, or equivalent, with grades of B+ or higher, or equivalent</strong> </li> </ul> </li> </ul>

Åtta månader gamla Emanuel ska utvisas till Iran - Ekot Emanuel föddes i Sverige i maj förra året och har fått ett utvisningsbeslut, fast hans familj har uppehållstillstånd här.Mamman fick arbetstillstånd efter ...

Nu har utvisningspolitiken spårat ur fullkomligt. Civiliserade länder utvisar väl inte spädbarn? Hur är den tjänsteman på Migrationsverket funtad som fattar ett sådant här beslut? Eller är det en bisarr demonstration mot en inhuman migrationspolitik?

Haha, jag vet inte, men de producerar 2 000+ stenar om året - det måste finnas en gräns!
