A Norwegian senior lecturer in Social Informatics, who focuses on Social Cybersecurity and Digital Preparedness, finds the idea that chatbots are AI hysterically ridiculous. #NAFO member since 2023. https://www.nord.no/om/ansatte/per-arne-godejord

I really It's kinda weird how the "The left hates technology (because AI)" mostly come from people whose experience with tech is on the level of vibecoding and the "left" they criticize consists to a significant part of people who've been actually building and maintaining systems for decades.

As a formal methods PhD, it's embarrassing for Anthropic to incorrectly describe static analysis in their Claude Code Security announcement. Security and formal methods engineers already have data "reasoning" tools, this isn't the bottleneck, false positives, which LLMs absolutely have, is.

If flawed and inaccurate LLMs are instrumented in AWS by replacing humans for decision making, then "wars" may as well be indiscriminate lethal campaigns. Anthropic's position also isn't a moral high ground given their AI-DSS uses w/ Palantir, where automation bias may lead to similar outcomes.

I have to give Anthropic credit for recognizing that deploying unreliable AI in AWS is not strategic for the future of AI. But there's a very fine line between DSS and AWS in practice due to automation bias, if they don't believe it's reliable for the latter, it's not reliable for the former either.

Anthropic, the maker of Claude AI, has announced that it could not, in good conscience, comply with the Department of War’s demands to deploy its technology for mass surveillance or to develop fully autonomous weapons. www.anthropic.com/news/stateme...

KI‑optimisme er ikke en strategi og kritisk tenkning er en demokratisk nødvendighet. Uvitenskapelige påstander om at "KI" er en uunngåelig revolusjon må aldri få overdøve spørsmålene om makt, verdier og hvem som egentlig tjener på utviklingen. #KIdebatt #HøyereUtdanning site.nord.no/didaktiskebe...

"Sometimes, in other words, you need to be told that you’re wrong. As it stands, AI can’t reliably do that." Especially given that "AI" is not a single tool or technology, but rather a catch‑all label for a whole assortment of non‑thinking systems engineered by humans futurism.com/artificial-i...

Paper Finds That Leading AI Chatbots Like ChatGPT and Claude Remain Incredibly Sycophantic, Resulting in Twisted Effects on Users

A study found that sycophancy is pervasive among chatbots, and that bots are more likely than human peers to affirm a person's bad behavior.

AI er ikke én ting – og kanskje finnes det egentlig ikke slik vi snakker om det. Denne artikkelen forklarer hvorfor «AI» bare er et paraplybegrep, hvordan definisjonen stadig flytter seg, og hva som egentlig skiller ML, deep learning, GenAI og LLM-er. insights.centric.eu/en/themes/ar...
