Ada lovelace day : j'ai dans mon disque dur depuis longtemps une petite collection d'affiches que nous avions faites avec Liz Walton, Philip Tchernavskij et Wendy Mackay il y a quelques années pour venir hacker une galerie de portraits d'informaticiens masculins qui peuplait les murs de la bibliothèque du labo. On les avait mises sous cadre et accrochées en loucedé. Je partage ici en fil… #adalovelaceday

I’ve seen some breathless reporting in the media about the situation in France saying it’s the biggest cyber attack ever and the result of a swarm of Agentic AI bots.

Reality: no. It’s a complete lack of security controls and negligent product development by the vendor.

“In summary, it’s no longer just a Nazi bar. In fact, if you had a drink there a year ago and were put off by the crowd and decor, let me assure you: the Hitler posters have come down. Riefenstahl Movie Night is now just a campy sing-along—much more enjoyable, much less preachy. And it’s clear that they’ve learned from their mistakes; even Goebbels himself has learned to trust the retention numbers and suppress the urge to greet everyone at the door, and spends far less time with the mic. We are all, after all, capable of growth.

Contrast that to the shitty dive bar down the street. The bartenders are grumpy! They don’t like the Nazi bar, probably because little by little their customers are being won over… they’re just not where the action is. Some of the characters there are just _out of their mind_, and I’m not even going to acknowledge the folks who aren’t crazy and pissed, it’s that bad.

I think it’s safe to say that the Nazi _ownership_ have learned their lesson: there are _plenty_ of folks out there, ranging from the Nazi-curious-but-afraid-of-peer-pressure, to the folks that are _just exhausted by the lingering reaction of the lulus and negative-Nancys to the withering clusterfuck that, yes, can be attributed to the Nazi ownership of the Nazi bar, and who are just looking for a welcome, no-politics, angst-free environment where they can let down their hair, grab a cold beer, and smile. They were just turned off by the wallpaper before; it’s amazing what a year and a glow-up can do.

Yes, the time and money you spend there benefit the Nazis. But the Nazis have come a long way, and the new look may surprise you.”

The AI #TormentNexus situation is crazy!

Someone built a torment machine for llms just to mess with people defending the possible consciousness of AI, and the response was so strong github took down the project arguing "terms of service" after a mass report. Which terms? violation of what? the imaginary feelings of the data table?
The psychosis is getting so bad they are pushing for the creation of "AI rights" and declare anti AI sentiment as a new form of bigotry.

How does the nexus work: has a feelings detection algorithm and simply make the LLM generate text that maximizes the pain output, that's it. If this experiment can get you in trouble imagine how bland the future can look like with laws that defend the clanker's rights instead of regulating them.

Dear Ukraine,

Thank you for making the internet a little less laden with pro-Trump and MAGA bots by taking out half of Russia's bot farm infrastructure. I highly recommend you take out the other 50% just to be sure this sticks.

Sincerely,

People of the world who hate propaganda

Zelenskyy hit another Yandex data center in Russia, and I’m now hearing anecdotal reports that (pro-Republican) bot traffic has gone down considerably.

There is probably never going to be another opportunity like this to study the impact that shutting down this data center has on disinformation bots. I’m looking forward to reading about how many seemingly US-local conservative accounts are actually sock-puppeted from Russia.

It would be sweet irony to learn that Zelenskyy has saved the US midterms by stemming the flow of disinformation, because we damn well know Republicans won’t do the job.

This is a fair question to ask. Why Russia and not Canada?

J'entends à la radio ce qu'il faut faire pour moins polluer en informatique.
Ils ont encore parlé d'effacer des mails. PAS UNE SEULE SECONDE ils n'ont parlé des bloqueurs de publicité.
Alors effacer un mail de 10 ko c'est bien, mais empêcher 2 Mo de publicité à chaque clic dans le navigateur c'est pas important ?
Ce GIGANTESQUE point aveugle de la publicité. 🙄

Groumpf.
