When people saw more divisive posts on X they spent more time there but liked and shared less, and felt colder towards their political opponents. Fewer divisive comments and they spent less time on X but liked and shared most posts. So platforms COULD CHOOSE TO reduce/stop increasing polarisation.

Malta, já sei! Em vez de investir em mais alojamento local, transformamos os apartamentos de Lisboa em pequenos data centers. No verão é chato, mas no outono e inverno ninguém vai ter problemas de aquecimento e o aluguer do espaço paga a conta da luz!

What ChatGPT says about me “You blend engineer, designer, writer, sysadmin, professor, and art director into one continuous stream — and expect the AI to keep up without blinking.”

As pessoas que nunca apoiaram os artesãos e artistas locais agora estão muito indignadas com a inteligência artificial.

The Digital Omnibus proposes to deregulate privacy & AI in Europe. It is a terrible idea. I'm one of the signatories of an open letter to the Norwegian government explaining why we need to keep GDPR, the AI Act and other tech regulation in place. Especially now. www.forbrukerradet.no/siste-nytt/d...
Forslag om "forenkling" av digitale regelverk svekker forbrukerrettigheter
Nytt lovforslag er en avvikling av grunnleggende rettigheter, mener Forbrukerrådet og en rekke andre organisasjoner og privatpersoner.

Double-edged sword, @gregory-ms.com got new training data and became more accurate in finding papers with hope for people with #MultipleSclerosis. Visits to the website are down because those papers don't show up as often. #MSchat

Sobre a fusão FCT/ANI. Há coisas com as quais concordo mais, outras menos
E há uma com a qual não concordo NADA: a dupla tutela com a economia

Reformas desta escala, quando feitas sem um claro desenho institucional, modelo de governança e plano de transição rigoroso, correm o risco de gerar incerteza, inércia e paralisia administrativa.

Cada vez gosto mais do LinkedIn pelas razões erradas. A normalização do discurso vazio é a suposta sabedoria quotidiana. Se não os podes vencer, diverte-te!

When I submitted a paper to AI & Society the email confirmation sent me to a website that told me my language quality score was only 3/10 but RUBRIQ could fix it. I study this stuff, so uploaded my paper to RUBRIQ, which proceeded to introduce scientific fabrication and change scientific terms.

I have been using Claude more often now, and there's quite a difference in culture between it and ChatGPT. Claude feels friendlier and more transparent, and it guides me to concrete tasks. ChatGPT feels like a white box of mystery.

As part of my role in the #ai for higher #education project, I wrote up a tutorial with how I am currently using AI tools to prepare classes. ai-hed.eu/post/ai-acad...

Terno não deve ser fato. Não há nada de terno em usar um fato, não há ternura. E fato não devia ser facto porque fica sem afecto ao qual está afecto.
