Usually, when I have a few days off I usually use a few hours to update myself on the news in AI research, because I don’t like to feel outdated. In the last 3 weeks, I completely ignored that I work with AI and I didn’t read or search about anything, and that was liberating.

😒 Spotify now puts AI-generated songs in my playlists. And honestly, this is very frustrating. I start to think I’m enjoying it (some musics has that “thing” kind of weird), I look for the artist, I can’t find anything, I see that the content is made by AI and not human. This should be signaled.

Added to my reading list. 👇🏽

The AI Safety report, it focuses on questions such as “What can general-purpose AI do? What are risks associated with general-purpose AI? And what mitigation techniques are there against these risks?”
Today, we are publishing the first-ever International AI Safety Report, backed by 30 countries and the OECD, UN, and EU.

It summarises the state of the science on AI capabilities and risks, and how to mitigate those risks. 🧵

Full Report: assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/679a0c...

Nice thread 👇🏽
As someone who has reported on AI for 7 years and covered China tech as well, I think the biggest lesson to be drawn from DeepSeek is the huge cracks it illustrates with the current dominant paradigm of AI development. A long thread. 1/

O National Institute of Health é o principal instituto de pesquisa biomédica dos EUA (foi o responsável pelo projeto Genoma Humano pra ficar em um só exemplo).

O que os pesquisadores de lá estão relatando sobre as medidas do governo Trump é devastador.
Communications shutdown. Travel ban. Canceled study sections. Now a hiring freeze?

Shutting down the NIH indefinitely without stated cause is literally an act of sabotage.

Left: yesterday. Right: today.

All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.

y'all. you do not need to keep reposting that man doing the nazi salute.

i don't want to see it.

i suspect the folks whose families were harmed by the nazis don't want to see it.

we know he did it, it serves no purpose to post it besides causing people distress and pain.
