AuDHD tech leader, ML, data, AI, tech. Chief Architect at climate policy radar (.org). Interested in tech for good, cute animals and neurospicey memes
We're opening up data on climate law and policy but context-dependent language makes it tricky. My colleague Anne Sietsma has an amazing blog post exploring this here www.climatepolicyradar.org/latest/mappi...
Mapping climate policy: navigating context-specific language (Part I) — Climate Policy Radar
In our latest blog, Anne Sietsma unpacks the mapping tool CPR developed to show how climate terminology differs across the globe.

Inference costs of GPT4 level intelligence have fallen THREE ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE in 18 months 😲😲

I've just switched over from CTO to Chief Architect at Climate Policy Radar! expect a bunch more posts on AI, knowledge graphs, esoterica, Satisfactory (I am crazy addicted.), and other things I now have a lot more time to get my head into. Looking forward to getting more tech in my life again

For everyone predicting 2025 as the year the ai bubble bursts, remember the market can remain irrational a lot longer than you can be solvent. And now we have artificial irrationality! There's still a huge amount of latent value to realise even if research progress stops dead.

There's a parliamentary petition for an independent review of the Cass report into gender medicine for young people. It's a problematic document from by the previous government, shaped by TERFs.

If you're a Brit, you can sign it, whether in the UK or not.

Petition: An independent evaluation of the Cass review on child gender services
We believe that trans healthcare should be based on unbiased research that is peer reviewed. We think that the Cass review's findings have led to restrictive practices that are being directly felt by ...

Sometimes academic sentences tell such a lovely story "Twelve students volunteered to participate in this study. Unfortunately, only one student completed all tasks" the perils of using students for research 😂😂

Anthropic derives 85% of its revenues from its API products vs OpenAI which is currently generating over 70% of its revenues from its chatbot premium subscriptions and only 27% from its APIs.

😲Aws hacking attempts up from 110m / day to 750m / day in 6months. Million!! The level playing field for skills genai gives people includes previously high friction crimes. How do you even begin to deal with that? (I feel like the answer is AI arms race...)

Trying to get perplexity to help debug nocobase, and it getting confused with nocodb sources in the search results, makes me think that coming up with good unique product names is even more important in the AI-search post-SEO era. Or risk users being given utterly perplexing (lol) info

I would put this even more strongly: open source AI is probably our only realistic chance to avoid a terrifying increase in concentration of power. I do not want to live in a world where the people with all the money also have all the intellectual power.
The most realistic reason to be pro open source AI is to reduce concentration of power.

Can I say something without people getting mad at me?

I don’t understand why one gets upset when people see the public posts on a public website, posted for people to see

I was supposed to go to a tech leaders dinner last night, but couldn't due to sensory overload. I <3 a lot of AuDHD, but this really made me feel disabled. like I can't access parts of the leadership world as sometimes my brain treats input as pain. How do we marry leadership and ND needs? #audhd

Anthropics product strategy is so on point rn I'm really loving it. Winning the hearts and minds of devs, but also QoL UX that openai's been neglecting. Proposing open protocols for ai/tool integration to undercut openai's by-default Microsoft customer base and level the playing field with llama. 🤌🤌

This paper on legal personhood for AI www.yalelawjournal.org/forum/the-et... is one of the best reads this year imo. Wonderfully argued and resonating argument for me. + Dobbs leading to AI being afforded human-like rights would be dystopian irony to the max

Little device AI will be everywhere soon. Not super smart alone but weird together:
accidental car war for spots
Street cleaner convinces traffic lights to stay red so it meets goals
Customer bot measures better feedback when it dances
What happens when everything is a bit smart but also a bit dumb?

I recently learned that which direction you write in in your language is linked to how you see time and as a time blind ADHDer now I know why my writing is illegible

Sitting through streaming service adverts because you had to fast forward back to where the app crashed is basically charging us for their incompetence, it's so infuriating
