När jag pratar med en annan människa om känsliga ämnen finns det allltid möjlighet att säga saker i förtroende, att säga saker med ironi, med metaforer och med ett kroppsspråk eller ton som visar hur allvarligt eller lättsamt menat något är. När varje ord spelas in och maskintolkas drabbas hela det viktiga samspelet. När varje ord spelas in finns plötsligt ett nytt incitament för människan att…
Det nya normala… Ur rapporteringen: * Centerpartiet i Värmland publicerade en AI-genererad karta där flera kommuner hade fel gränser. Dessutom fanns det felaktiga uppgifter om att kommuner inte har en lokal polisstation, trots att de har det. * Marie Persson är ansvarig för Centerpartiets valrörelse i Värmland och hon medger att materialet inte faktagranskades före publicering. Samtidigt beskriver…
This. I have hundreds of never-completed blog posts. Writing is messy. Some posts take me months to complete. The struggle is the work. Is the point. Is what gives it meaning. I never want to subject my readers (or myself!) to a blog post completed by way of probabilistic word sludge that mimics whatever shape of content that is preferred by a limited selection of human data labelers. I've been…

@ dingemansemark Excellent, added your blog to my feedbin now. And noted your post about the "how not to use AI" workshop which was very inspirational. I have turned down doing a workshop for similar reasons, but reframing it and offering it like this is so useful. Gave me lots of ideas for future interactions when I get these requests. p.s. I believe there is room for very long blog posts 😊
@ dingemansemark @ lavaeolus This is a brilliant paper! I’d love to see it in html to make it accessible to more people. I find there are so many good texts out there limited by the PDF format. The prompt-engineering-as-dark-art metaphor is perfect and I also really appreciated your perspective on the term ”AI psychosis” as a form of victim-blaming.
When you aren't looking for the next sexy, time-saving, alluring, status-boosting, approval-seeking thing you become much harder to manipulate and push around. You gain back power. Just being in the present, satisfied, and impressed by the living, breathing Earth, is resistance.
@ mralancooper Why you might hate AI, cont’d: • It is pushing to engage even as I describe how much I hate it. "Now, let ME know what angle you want to DISCUSS further” 🤪
Page 13 in this week’s @ thecontinent , with a report on the migrant crossing from Morocco into Ceuta that actually includes voices from people who were part of that crossing. The article explains the growing social media rumors and false information that triggered the events, and the complicated relationship between Spain, Morocco and Algeria - extending to the EU, USA, and Israel. Extreme right…
”If we never did anything, we wouldn’t be anybody.” – The character Jenny in the film ’An Education’; screenplay by Nick Horby This quote just struck me as truly powerful. Perhaps especially in a context where there is a tendency to outsource the doing to machines.
“The link between broad-based literacy and the rise of democracy is well known: People who can read and write for themselves have, historically, also been good at choosing and advocating for themselves. What happens when the process goes into reverse? When people lack the patience to absorb arguments more than a few pages or sentences long? When they lack the ability to contradict those arguments…
@ Carl_Gylling Thank you Carl. 🙏
Refuting the idea that digital design must be human-centric has helped me manage my role and professional responsibility in a digital ecosystem. The pursuit of universal wellbeing is more rewarding, and invites conversations that I and my teams were not previously having. https://axbom.com/design-for-universal-wellbeing/
@ gerrymcgovern This was an excellent watch. Thanks for sharing!
@ rkaj Väldigt roligt att säga hej Rasmus!

@ Allinrep Tack!! 🤩
Happy pride alla fina människor! Har plockat fram systemkameran och tänkte fota lite idag. 🏳️🌈
The Africa map debacle is a glimpse of a future with "AI". Not knowing. Not caring. The most unbelievably wrong map I have ever seen at an international, official event. A huge insult and embarassment. "AIDS? We don't even know where your countries are." https://emilysbass.substack.com/p/the-us-state-department-redraws-the
