‘Sovereign AI’ is political branding. The reality is closer to digital colonialism

"This reveals a new kind of digital colonialism. Not one where countries are denied access, but one where they are structurally bound into dependencies across every layer of the AI stack. A European lab may host its own weights on a data center in France, but that center runs on American hardware, software, and middleware. The illusion of control masks a dense web of interdependence."

Correcte signalisatie is toch zo belangrijk. Je hebt een signalisatieplan dat goedgekeurd werd door de bevoegde diensten (waaronder de politie) en dan wijk je daar als aannemer toch nog van af met dit soort gevolgen. Terechte uitspraak wat mij betreft.

Is the AI Bubble About to Burst?

Aaron Benanav on why Artificial Intelligence isn’t going to change the world. It just makes work worse.

Technologies are not neutral: they are deployed within a political and institutional context that determines their impact on labour. Governments could regulate workplace surveillance; unions could bargain for protections against invasive monitoring.

and in any reasobable juristictions they do.

  • i.e. #Germany bans surveillance that monitors workers' computers and even for bideo surveillance has strict rules on storage (max. 72 hours) amd specific purposes (i.e. evidence collection in case of a break-in or armed robbery).

#LastBoost (leicht zu finden, dies ist eine ent-taggte Reply auf den originalen Post). Ich fand die Gedanken in dem Artikel interessant - sowohl in Hinblick auf den Hype an sich, als auch in Hinblick auf die Analysen zum Thema "Automatisierung vom Arbeit". Neu war auch die Info, wo die Zahlen zu "Maschinen werden uns ersetzen" überhaupt hergekommen sind.
Das ist ziemlich viel Stoff zum Grübeln, die Frage am Ende auch für Solarpunk spannend.

Entschuldigung, ich konnte dieses Bild nicht verarbeiten.


This is just idiotic. #MoralPanic. The Times crying AI will kill the truth: "A trust apocalypse is here." Without any examination of what the #BrokenTimes is doing to truth and trust.

I wouldn't over-claim re China's emissions reduction.
The reduction is only 1% and still likely to change to an increase.
Moreover, "Many wind and solar power projects have been halted across multiple Chinese regions "after a shift to market pricing. yicaiglobal.com/news/chinese-r…

The image is a two-panel comic strip with a pink background. In the first panel, a person with dark skin and black hair tied back is standing at a counter, smiling. They are wearing a pink shirt and are working with dough, with a rolling pin and a bowl visible on the counter. A speech bubble above them reads, "Cover the dough and let it rest for 6 hours."

In the second panel, the same person is shown with a sad expression, covering their face with their hand, and tears are visible. The background is a lighter shade of pink. A speech bubble above them reads, "I wish I was the dough." The bottom of the image has a watermark that reads "[@]disturbingquotes."
