TIL that a #BlackBox #AI can be defined as #OpenSource.
Granting the “freedom to fine tune” cannot be enough to qualify as Open Source AI just like granting the “freedom to configure” cannot be enough to qualify as Open Source Software.
Yet, for #OSI it's enough.
And you can't provide effective solutions to the problem they pretend to see into making training data available.
Or you will be silenced.

Now that the courts have blessed policing homelessness in the Grants Pass ruling, the experts Bolts spoke to expect more anti-camping ordinances to pop up:
“There is a really well-funded effort being made by billionaires... to create relocation camps.”

I have a new song coming out Friday! It's a collaboration with German synth artist UAP who I'm sure many of you know (and if you don't you should!). We're very much on the same wavelength musically: synths, 80s rock, Ensoniq keyboards... and it all comes through on this synthrock power ballad.

I have not tuned in to any of the "for Kamala" groups yet, but I have to say this lineup for tomorrow's "Musicians for Kamala" sounds really interesting.

Last September, Agnes Martinez was looking for a place she & her dog could sleep for the night. Houseless at the time, she parked her car near downtown Salt Lake City. Soon after, two police officers assaulted her so bad that her leg had to be amputated.

Okay I almost thought I had figured out how to upload a #steam app from #Linux, but unfortunately no.
The thing is: steam-works sdk is just a bunch of windows scripts and executables in a trench coat and it is needed to upload games to steam.
So I thought ... well how about using proton to run that mess?
Unfortunately, this mess also needs a steam client to run, witch is not available in the proton compatibility layer, witch means ... back to using wine I guess?
I will keep you posted.

in reply to Shamar • • •I really think that every marginalized group that suffered #discrimination and systemic oppression should join the discussion about #OpenSourceAI
If a black box will be distributed, regulated and trusted as #OpenSource, no human right organization will be able to inspect the dataset used to train it.
And if you can implant undetectable backdoors in a machine learning model (see arxiv.org/abs/2204.06974), you can much more easily implant undetectable bias that will hurt some groups of people to benefit others.
#LGBTQ people and victims of systemic #racism should really demand transparency,...before it's too late!
