AI Content Is Everywhere on Social Media, Especially LinkedIn | Pangram Labs
We scanned over 1 million social media posts for AI content. It turned up on every platform we checked, and 1 in 3 top LinkedIn posts flagged as AI-generated.

Maybe the AI bots trying to find endlessly new content on my blog post? Drive me these questions « Is human generated content what AI bot are only interesting in? Does this mean that human contribution is the only way to keep the system running before it collapse or read its peak? Is the AI tagging at the end only useful for bot? and not human after all? All the human text are so valuable that AI system burn it after reading. »

UN report warns AI could soon use 3% of world's electricity and more water than we need to drink
One argument often used to quell concerns about the rising energy and resource demand of data centers is that artificial intelligence (AI) models will need less in the future as they improve and become more efficient.

An iconic question in the effort to understand #consciousness and everything connected to it was first raised by Thomas Nagel in 1974. He asked, “What is it like to be a bat?” Even explaining/defining what it’s like to be us is a challenge. #AI geeks are wont to speculate on whether an AI is, or can be, …

When they say "we are entering a new industrial revolution" what they want you to hear is "things that were once expensive will now be cheap," but what they mean is "we will be using the massive economic disruption, that we are creating, to change the world against your will and further shape it towards the interests of a small and powerful minority."

Det slidsomt underkendte relationelle arbejde er fremtidens jobboom. For begge køn. Nu skal æres, hvad æres bør. Det er økonomi, slet og ret. Når AI driver prisen på viden mod nul, stiger den relative værdi af ægte menneskelig kontakt og menneskelig tid. Det næste arbejdsmarked bliver derfor ikke et marked med færre jobs. Det bliver et marked med flere, bedre betalte jobs med relationelt, emotionelt indhold. Det er en teknologisk revolution med et kvindeligt ansigt og bias. I årtier…
