Dream Destroyer - the found is feeling again
Stan Stewart - @muz4now

There was once a machine that told you "you want this" and "this is good." It said, "there can be no better system and it's foolish to try to build one." That machine has long since failed to function. Now you choke on fumes as it is consumed by the wild flames of an abandoned cause.
That machine could not possibly work anymore because the evidence of it's falsehood has become too overwhelming.
No, only abject terror now can keep you from plotting your escape, from creating an alternative. No, the illusion has long since broken. All that's left now is triggering fight, flight, freeze as hard as possible. Most will be paralyzed, and those who fight can be used as an excuse to escalate the terror.
These are the final stages of a dying sun, expanding and consuming it's children before the final supernova.
There is no longer a stable system, no longer a system with a future. All that remains is the spectacle that hopes to distract you long enough that you too can be consumed, that it may sustain itself a few moments longer.

D4 is a mess because of incoherent alliances.
Engardio won by courting both urbanists (who skew progressive) and conservatives (who are car-brained). Now conservatives feel betrayed because he backed car-free space, while progressive urbanists who like car-free spaces still aren't wild about *him*.
Thus, he's likely toast in the recall. 1/

Recalls now ‘a thing we live with,’ political insiders say at Mission Local event
The insiders said Engardio is in big trouble. They added that new money, especially from tech, fueling city politics is behind recent recalls.

Hat jemand die neue Identitätsprüfung von Intrum beim SwissPass schon ausprobiert und die Datenschutz-Regeln angeschaut?
Wäre interessiert zu wissen, was Intrum mit den Ausweiskopien und Selfies machen darf, ob da z.B. eine "konzerninterne Weiterverwendung" enthalten ist...

SwissPass setzt auf digitale Identitätsprüfung von Intrum
SwissPass nutzt neu eine digitale Identitätsprüfung von Intrum. Die Lösung sorgt für eine sichere, benutzerfreundliche Verifikation von Ausweisen – datenschutzkonform und effizient. Sie ist Teil einer langfristigen Partnerschaft im Bereich Digital Onboarding.

Even if “AI” worked (it doesn’t), there’s many reasons why you shouldn’t use it:
1. It’s destroying Internet sites that you love as you use chat bots instead of actually going to sources of information—this will cause them to be less active and eventually shut down.
2. Pollution and water use from server farms cause immediate harm; often—just like other heavy industry—these are built in underprivileged communities and harming poor people. Without any benefits as the big tech companies get tax breaks and don’t pay for power, while workers aren’t from the community but commute in.
3. The basic underlying models of any LLM rely on stolen data, even when specific extra data is obtained legally. Chatbots can’t learn to speak English just by reading open source code.
4. You’re fueling a speculation bubble that is costing many people their jobs—because the illusion of “efficiency” is kept up by firing people and counting that as profit.
5. Whenever you use the great cheat machine in the cloud you’re robbing yourself from doing real research, writing or coding—literally atrophying your brain and making you stupider.
It’s a grift, through and through.

Verified Language Processing with Hybrid Explainability: A Technical Report
The volume and diversity of digital information have led to a growing reliance on Machine Learning techniques, such as Natural Language Processing, for interpreting and accessing appropriate data. While vector and graph embeddings represent data for similarity tasks, current state-of-the-art pipelines lack guaranteed explainability, failing to determine similarity for given full texts accurately. These considerations can also be applied to classifiers exploiting generative language models with …
