“AI workers said they distrust the models they work on because of a consistent emphasis on rapid turnaround time at the expense of quality.”
Meet the AI workers who tell their friends and family to stay away from AI
When the people making AI seem trustworthy are the ones who trust it the least, it shows that incentives for speed are overtaking safety, experts say

The way eating something with a good amount of protein in it ANNIHILATES my morning headaches really is relieving

Though, with a sense of aggravation, since it was such a solvable problem all this time

I saw an interview with an air traffic controller who is driving Uber on the side so his family can eat since they're about to gt their first zero dollar pay stub and that's exactly you want in one of the most stressful jobs on earth: staff that's even more stressed, sleep deprived and hungry

“The CDC, which tracks human cases, & the Dept of Agriculture, which monitors animal outbreaks, have both suspended routine communication with states, leaving many officials without up-to-date guidance on how to detect & contain the disease, or a clear national picture of the surge.”🧪🛟
After a quiet summer, the bird flu virus H5N1 is hitting poultry flocks hard in the run-up to the holidays — and in the midst of a federal government shutdown.

Even ants are better at public health than Americans. 🧪 www.npr.org/sections/goa...
Some ant architects design a colony to cut the risk of disease. Humans, take note!
One kind of tiny ant can serve as a monumental example for how to keep members of a community safe from pathogens. A new study shows how they do it.

AI Bait & Switch:

bait: we’re gonna make an AI that can solve any problem experts could solve. it’s gonna transform the whole world.

switch: what we have actually made is fun and amazing, but rarely reliable and often makes mistakes – but ordinary people makes mistakes, too. So … AGI solved!

“Well-meaning” people are using machine translation to write Wikipedia articles in languages that they don’t speak themselves, accelerating the degeneration in quality of the web corpus for several languages with relatively few native speakers.

Machine translators have made it easier than ever to create error-plagued Wikipedia articles in obscure languages. What happens when AI models get trained on junk pages?

Again, I'm just describing the situation. If we want to transform it, there's pretty much only one thing for converts to do: shut the fuck up and listen.

But even that might be too much to ask.

This is, for Freire, a sign of our supposed "allies" inability to trust us. Because they can't or won't trust not only that we know something, but that our knowledge is valuable, they're fundamentally incapable of being in solidarity with us. This, in turn, fractures our trust in our allies.

What we're seeing in the "don't sign up for protests" discourse is what Paulo Freire described as the convert's failure to trust the knowledge of the oppressed. As the convert tries to stand in solidarity with the oppressed, they refuse to let go of a world where they were the authority by default.
