Beste sammenligningen jeg har sett: KI-teknologi er som asbest

Bra innlegg fra @annesigrid.bsky.social 🙌
Du må kunne mye for å bruke KI
Den viktigste kompetansen barn og unge kan tilegne seg, er å forstå tekster i en gitt sammenheng.

Det ee alltid infrastrukturen rundt vi må fikse først (enten det gjelder togskinner og togsett eller operativsystemer og programvare) 🫠

Kjenner til det, men var aldri borti det sjølv. Det er jo lett å sjå strategien til Microsoft mot gratis programvare som gjorde at sånne prosjekt stranda: Få alle til å vere så innsausa i Teams, Azure, Office365++ at Windows blir einaste alternativ. Det er infrastrukturen rundt vi må fikse først!

Litt populistisk, men:

Utenlandstogene vingeklippes for å øke kapasiteten til Gardermoen når Regjeringen kutter CO2-avgiften på innenlands flytrafikk - som foreslått i statsbudsjettet.

Dette er klima- og miljøpolitikk fra steinalderen.

Som vanlig er konklusjonen som min venninne så fint oppsummerte det: «Norway, the country that cannot train». 🚆

Dette er ei mørk uke for alle som er opptatt av et bedre tilbud på tog til og fra utlandet. I går kom nyheten om at det ikke blir noen forbedringer av togtilbudet mellom Trondheim og Sverige - tross at man har elektrifisert og ruster opp banen for 2 mrd kroner.
Togtilbudet på Meråkerbanen etter elektrifisering
Jernbanedirektoratet har besluttet at dagens togtilbud med SJ Norge fortsetter som planlagt mot 2028 etter elektrifiseringen av Meråkerbanen er ferdig vinteren 2025.

I don't think it makes sense to ask a LLM to summarise a abstract. I also wonder when you ask a LLM to summarise full text. In what way is it better than the abstract?

Our spring iteration of the Cross-Reference Coalition will focus on 🔎SEARCH + DISCOVERY💡 We'll work tgthr to design a scavenger hunt, map, or field guide that encourages defiantly-anti-AI exploration of NYC's knwldg resources + cultural heritage.

We'll distribute our call for apps early next week!
About the Spring 2026 Class: Search & Discovery Search engine optimization and generative artificial intelligence have progressively destroyed web search. Meanwhile, expanding privatization, surveillance, and the militarization of our public spaces have impeded our capacity to explore and inhabit the physical world — and the instrumentalization and “optimization” of education have precluded organic, curiosity-driven investigation. In this course, we’ll gather to survey the state of search and discovery, and to reclaim lost methods and imagine new approaches that offer an antidote to our contemporary darkness and destruction. Our journey will encompass the history of exploration and cartography, legacies of inquiry, tools of discovery, theories of curiosity, and counter-algorithmic means of “finding things out.” We’ll aim to engage with navigators and user-experience designers, tour guides and psychologists, artists and archaeologists. Each weekly session will exemplify a different mode of finding and exploring New York’s terrains and treasures, and our work will culminate in the collective creation of a scavenger hunt, map, or field guide promoting discovery of the city’s knowledge institutions and cultural heritage.

"If discovery tools return hallucinated results, the credibility of the library itself could be undermined. Students may come to see the library’s systems as just another unreliable search engine."

BINGO

Someone at a Russell Group university was moved to almost-poetry by their Faculty Meeting… Can anyone do better?
A satirical poem about universities. All Staff Assembly Unlike other universities We do not have an emergency However, we must continue To take action with urgency Don't let there be rupture In trust over the new role families This is not a restructure There are always some redundancies We do not work with arms companies We work with engineering firm subsidiaries Who produce dual use technologies That kill people Some of us are paid very differently But this is very good for the university You see, the disparities in our salaries Are contributions to Diversity

Det egentlig mest bananas er ikke bruken av KI men at folka som ble spurt om å vurdere bare "jada, jeg er kvalifisert" 🤠 Og ikke "hvorfor blir jeg spurt, dette er ikke mitt fagfelt".

Dette er ikke «feil bruk av KI» men et eksempel på et domene hvir språkmodeller IKKE BØR BRUKES. Vi risikerer å ødelegge all tillitt til at noe tekst er pålitelig når KI skal inn overalt. www.journalisten.no/ntb-trakk-sa...
NTB trakk sak med falske sitater og falsk kilde: – En veldig alvorlig feil
Fem av fem Telenor-sitater, og navnet på direktør, var oppdiktet. Feil bruk av KI, forklarer redaktør.

Det finnes ingen "riktig" bruk av KI til kunnskapsarbeid, forklarer @jilltxt.bsky.social i denne kronikken – på en måte som kanskje selv Aftenpostens teknologijournalister kan forstå.

Grateful as always for Dr Sascha Luccioni’s research into the energy discrepancies between image, text, & now video generation: “Creating [one] AI video uses approximately 90 Watt-hours, compared to the 2.9Wh needed for image generation and 0.047Wh for text generation.” www.cnet.com/tech/service...
Your AI Videos Use Way More Energy Than Chatbots. It's a Big Problem
As AI video generation climbs with tools like Sora, energy demands will rise, too.

What if—just throwing spaghetti at a wall—all the time & effort put into technology & techniques aimed at taming unruly workers were instead spent on their well-being so as to remove the causes of unruliness?

Let’s say since Frederick Taylor. How much wasted time & effort would that add up to?
