@marcel@waldvogel.family"New research […] shows that a modified audio clip undetectable by human ears can manipulate a model’s behavior"
"Real-world examples include hiding malicious instructions in online videos, music clips, or voice notes that users query an AI about, or broadcasting malicious audio on a Zoom call that is then uploaded to AI transcription services."
I expect people will be having fun building 21st century equivalents of the TV-be-gone.

@cdarwin@c.imIn the new book,
Muskism: A Guide for the Perplexed,
authors Quinn Slobodian and Ben Tarnoff look at the worldview that shaped Elon Musk
and the ideology that has coalesced around him.
They call Muskism “an operating system for the 21st century.”
Musk runs rocket company SpaceX, AI startup xAI, electric car maker Tesla and the social media platform X, formerly Twitter.
Musk’s political influence extends from his use of X to advance controversial ideas,
@aral@mastodon.ar.al“According to the Bible…”
No, fuck you. It’s the 21st century. Don’t you fucking quote the deluded ramblings of half-literate goatherds cobbled together through the years as a guide for anything. We’ve had 2,000 years of scientific advancement and we have nuclear weapons and your superstitious magic sky fairy bullshit is going to get us all killed.

@grumpybozo@toad.socialThe fact that we have vaccines for HPV-induced cancers & for Varicella Zoster (chickenpox & shingles) is a pair of massive wins for 21st century medicine that we don’t have enough appreciation for. Especially since the Shingrix vaccine somehow also helps prevent dementia.
These are viruses that are *endemic* in humans, older than the species. Almost everyone who has ever lived has been exposed to both by age 25. Kids born today may never be exposed to either & many who are…

@markhburton@mstdn.social"By now you would think that even the dimmest bourgeois politician — even those who think the British empire can be reconstituted for the 21st century — might wonder if their “special relationship” with the US might be reclassified as abusive. But not Starmer, or that buffoon David Lammy, once a foreign secretary so marginal to affairs that he was not consulted over who might be our country’s ambassador to what is nominally our principal ally."

@cdarwin@c.imSpeaker Mike Johnson officially sent major housing affordability legislation to Donald Trump’s desk for signature Monday.
The 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act,
a bipartisan bill aiming to address affordability by increasing housing supply and homeownership,
can now either be vetoed by Trump or signed into law.
Absent the president’s signature, the bill will become law with no action after 10 days not counting Sundays
— around July 10.

@scottmiller42@mstdn.socialI heard on Iowa Public Radio this morning that Gov Reynolds signed a bill permitting over-the-counter Ivermectin sales.
Great, let's all take Ivermectin as a 21st century cure all, for viruses and cancer and anything else our whim strikes! Why would we use evidence-based science to guide us!?
Meanwhile Covid-19 vaccines, some of the most researched medicine ever, Republicans have made harder to obtain at the pharmacy.

@cdarwin@c.imUnlike the race to the moon between the Soviet Union and the US,
the 21st-century competition is shaping up to be more like a marathon,
with a gargantuan effort to launch multiple missions over many years.
“What this is really illustrating is that it doesn’t matter who gets to the moon next.
It matters who gets to the moon the next 10 times,”
said Scott Manley, a Scottish astrophysicist and expert on rocket engineering.

@losttourist@social.chatty.monsterWell that was, let's be honest, mostly pretty dire. A few gems among the dust though.
I think there are only a couple of episodes next week, neither of which are from the 21st century. So it all might be OK. See you then? #TOTP
