An MIT report says 95% of GenAI pilots at companies have little to no financial impact, mainly due to a "learning gap" for both the tools and the companies (Sheryl Estrada/Fortune)

MIT report: 95% of generative AI pilots at companies are failing
There’s a stark difference in success rates between companies that purchase AI tools from vendors and those that build them internally.

So, noch ein Versuch ... ich habe ein paar Gedanken zu politischen Blasen und Ignoranz aufgeschrieben. Und hoffe, dass ich darauf hier hinweisen kann, ohne erneut minutenlangen Stillstand in meinem Blog zu provozieren ...

Politische Blasen, Umfragen und dergleichen mehr
Am 8. März 2026 findet in Baden-Württemberg die Landtagswahl statt, die Spitzenkandidaten im Kampf um das Amt des Ministerpräsidenten heißen Cem Özdemir (Grüne) und Manuel Hagel (CDU). Der Bundeskanzler Merz (CDU) hat in einem öffentlichen Gespräch sinngemäß - und klar rassistisch - geäußert, dass i

Me and my new #yubikey5 part 2:
Now we get to the nitty-gritty parts. I'm using #mbsync to sync multiple #imap accounts to local

Screenshot of a terminal in background showing a manual triggering of mbsync with one of my mail addresses, and a GTK window in foreground (pinentry-gtk) prompting me to insert the PIN to unlock my Yubikey to decript the passwords provided by the GPG encrypted password store from pass.
Full-screen terminal window showing the output from `journalctl -n0 -f` when I plug in the youbikey and wait while for the automatic mailsync service to trigger. The output shows that while the Yubikey is inserted and properly recognized, when mbsyncer starts it asks for the PIN, but directly gets a `PIN callback returned error: IPC call has been cancelled` message, which in turn makes the decription fail, which leads to a skipping of the account in mbsync. And this will continue for the next …

Social media use is declining because all the big platforms are run by and kowtowing to the worst people.
Nobody (except Nazis) want to hang out at a Nazi bar that just randomly assigns people to you who yell at you that it's all the foreigners' fault; meanwhile you see fewer and fewer posts of, you know, your friends or interesting people you choose to follow.
Plus now it’s also full of AI slop.
Nobody wants that shit.

Teenager has just suggested some of the programs, which I was under the impression were via the browser, may need to be on desktop.
This might mean Wine I guess?
And probably some kind of microsoft office install? I was hoping to get away with libreoffice..
Anybody have any experience with wine?
I will in any case have to contact the IT support at the school I think. I hope I am not the only parent doing so with the #EndOf10 .
Meanwhile, over on the laptop, the Linux Mint is installed (in danish even) and seems to be restarting without the USB
holding breath here...

RotBench: Evaluating Multimodal Large Language Models on Identifying Image Rotation
We investigate to what extent Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) can accurately identify the orientation of input images rotated 0°, 90°, 180°, and 270°. This task demands robust visual reasoning capabilities to detect rotational cues and contextualize spatial relationships within images, regardless of their orientation. To evaluate MLLMs on these abilities, we introduce RotBench -- a 350-image manually-filtered benchmark comprising lifestyle, portrait, and landscape images. Despite t…
