My thoughts on #LLM :

1. I can see useful, ethical use cases for small-scale, specially-trained #LLM systems.
2. However, none of the big #AI companies - #Antropic, #OpenAI, #SpaceX , #Amazon, #Microsoft and so forth - are acting in an even remotely ethical manner when it comes to training their LLM systems.
3. Furthermore, I _really_ don't see the trillion dollar business case for "Let's scrape every website on the Internet a thousand times per month in the hopes of finding new data!"
4. That scraping is also pissing me off personally since I had to upgrade my hosting plan _twice_ and _still_ get the occasional outage from all that scraper bot traffic.
5. Therefore, I will not use any of the AI models by the current crop of corporate overlords.
6. Instead, I will wait until the #AIBubble inevitably pops and the world economy comes crashing down.
7. And after this happens, then _maybe_ there will be something worth using after we have sifted through the ashes.

@fesshole Waxing poetic:

While not being the exact trajectory of a wax hall of Presidents, Val Kilmer was recently honored in an #AI movie that reproduces his image.

Acceptable as a distant art form, kept remote from vital infrastructure, this next-stage Search Engine is acceptable.

But not in the hands of abusive #TechBros and #FossilFuels #Oligarchy, with their crony politicians writing policy for them.

Then again, at this point, it's impossible to legislate the difference- and it worsens.

Oh look, another use case for the pervert glasses. /s

Again, I have never in my entire life seen an issue that has so rapidly and thoroughly brought together people of every age group and political beliefs in a common purpose as the deep hatred of data centers and #AI being imposed on our lives. Politicians who haven't figured this out yet, irrespective of party, are standing on the beach while a gigantic tsunami is about to drown their political careers, as this has become a top issue that will drive voters.

Who’d a thunk it?

This. This is why I never do this, ever. There a *lot* of people that proudly use LLMs, why is a potential more important? I trust artists first. I would never accuse anyone of using AI https://tofutush.github.io/posts/2026-08-18.html #LLM #AI #NoAI

In 30 Monaten mit AI haben fast 30‘000 chinesische SuS das Lernen verlernt. Gut, dass wenigstens die Chinesen sich nicht selbst in die Tasche lügen. Bin gespannt, welche Schlussfogerungen das chinesische Regime daraus zieht. #ki #ai #FediLZ

Using 30 months of panel data on 26,811 Chinese students in grades 7-12, it has been studied how generative AI affects homework productivity and learning.

@sundogplanets I agree with you and dislike #AI immensely but I ask the question 'is autocorrect AI, is spellcheck AI, is formatting AI?' We all accept and use AI to polish our work. What we find unacceptable is using AI to create and/or replace the creative process. Do you agree?

Alessandro Faria, no LinkedIn:

"Em breve, essa imagem representará muito mais do que um equipamento: será a demonstração prática de Inteligência Artificial executada localmente com computação heterogênea.

O sistema operacional Multicortex será entregue pré-instalado e otimizado para aproveitar as tecnologias Intel, utilizando de forma coordenada os diferentes recursos de processamento disponíveis no equipamento: CPU, NPU e GPU.

A proposta é distribuir as cargas de trabalho de Inteligência Artificial entre essas unidades de processamento de acordo com as características de cada tarefa, buscando maior eficiência, melhor utilização do hardware, menor consumo de recursos e mais desempenho para aplicações de IA.

É a computação heterogênea deixando de ser apenas um conceito e passando a fazer parte de soluções reais, onde CPU + NPU + GPU trabalham em conjunto para acelerar a Inteligência Artificial diretamente no dispositivo.

E isso é apenas o começo."

ARGENTINA! 🇦🇷 Un grupo de Gandalfs se reunió delante de la casa de Peter Thiel en el barrio Palermo Chico.

🎶 Vos querés Palantir para ver el futuro. Mirate en el espejo, vas a ver un boludo... ¡Vas a ver un boludo! 🎶 😘

Llevaron una bandera con el "YOU SHALL NOT PASS" escrito con la tipografía del ya legendario trapo de Malvinas :blobaww: 🔥

Meanwhile, #Google #AI Overviews are lying about the continuing global Google Home outage

The outage has continued for hours. And while Google has admitted it is still in progress, questions about it to Google Search get this response:

"There is no widespread or global outage currently affecting Google Home services. Tracking platforms like Downdetector US show normal operation levels, meaning issues are likely localized to your specific device, app, or home network."

In fact, Downdetector shows a very impressive big red graphed outage in progress for Google Home.

Thanks for the misinformation, Google AI Overviews!

#FacialRecognition is almost anywhere in the U.S. now—and #privacy implications are devastating.

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/aug/16/california-openai-protester-wynd-kaufman. In what way, precisely, was Wynd Kaufman "endangering the #public #safety" of anyone in #SanFrancisco? She might have been "endangering" the #profits - for a very short time - of the #AI #industry, but that is hardly the same thing, & does not warrant #imprisonment, not even for a week, @DoomsdaysCW. I am in full #solidarity with her, & all other #protesters against AI.
