En España no se paga tanto, pero las condiciones de las residencias de mayores y el sentimiento de impotencia de las familias es exactamente igual. Excelente artículo. www.theguardian.com/society/ng-i...

After watching my father’s struggle in a system that values profit over compassion, I wonder: how much longer will we accept a future where most of us lose our sense of human worth in old age?

Highly recommend this piece by D. Graham Burnett that really grapples with the fact that LLMs can produce an incredibly convincing simulation of human thought, but also why we can't treat the simulation as the same was what happens when humans think. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...
Will the Humanities Survive Artificial Intelligence?
Maybe not as we’ve known them. But, in the ruins of the old curriculum, something vital is stirring.

Interesante perspectiva. Fue un proceso gradual. La gente fue aceptando Wikipedia para ciertas tareas porque detrás empezó ac haber un sólido trabajo de verificación. Y aun así la Wikipedia sigue siendo criticable por sus desequilibrios y vacíos informativos.
I do genuinely wonder how many people think what happened with Wikipedia is that “society accepted it” rather than that they put a ton of work into making it reliable, something that is not going to make AI reliable because no technology to actually understand meaning has been or can be invented.
Some of the anti-AI stuff feels a bit like when people would say "don't use Wikipedia as a source." It's just like anything else, a piece of information that you weigh against multiple sources and your own understanding of its likely failure modes

Interesting research from Hidden Layer on a novel way to bypass AI LLM’s security guardrails.

Looks similar to other security bypasses we’ve seen in the past, but much more comprehensive.
Novel Universal Bypass for All Major LLMs
HiddenLayer’s latest research uncovers a universal prompt injection bypass impacting GPT-4, Claude, Gemini, and more, exposing major LLM security gaps.

This week on #linguistics journal etiquette: responding to reviewers' comments. I'm seeing more revised papers that don't fully engage with the reviewers' comments. This is a problem.

Excellent idea for writing assignments gleaned from @writerethink.bsky.social at #4C25: Create a template Google Doc with tabs for various writing process steps. Include guidance right there in the doc...

"The Prado hopes that actually knowing exactly how many people are in these crowded scenes will help us better understand these paintings"

As I said in a lecture I gave at Miami Uni yesterday, projects such as this are neither devised to answer art historical questions, nor will they. 🧵
