Weil das Leben im Internet durchaus oft dem Furzen im Weltall gleichkommt – der Geruch wirkt nicht über den eigenen Raumanzug hinaus – oder warum sonst legen sich Menschen eine KI als Chat-Freundschaft zu?

Manchmal wünsche ich mir einfach 2 Wochen Stromausfall, damit man mal wieder mit den Leuten spricht, die im gleichen Dorf wohnen.

Chatbot-Apps - Wie gefährlich sind Beziehungen mit einer KI?

Es ist schon lange keine Fiktion mehr: Menschen führen Beziehungen mit KI-Chatbots. Eine Studie zeigt, warum sie das tun. Doch von den Chatbot-Apps gehen auch Gefahren aus, wie Vollbild-Recherchen zeigen.

wenn man den #Chatbot auf stuttgart.de zum #radfahren befragt, bekommt man interessante Antworten

"Allerdings gibt es in Stuttgart Bestrebungen, den Radverkehr langfristig zu fördern, mit dem Ziel, dass Radfahren 25 Prozent des gesamten Verkehrs ausmacht. Die Stadt ist aktiv bemüht, die Mobilität umwelt- und menschenverträglicher zu gestalten, was auch die Verbesserung der Radinfrastruktur umfassen könnte."

💭 Es ist gut erfroscht, wie #Carearbeit im Zuge der Industrialisierung aus den Wirtschaftskreisläufen herausgehalten und ins Private verlegt wurde. Unbezahlt von Frauen ausgeführt.

Die Anbieter des #Chatbot Replika schreiben auf der Homepage:
"The #AI companion who cares
Always here to listen and talk.
Always on your side"

Jetzt frage ich mich, ob das einfach nur die Endstufe der Verdrängung des Kümmerns aus der öffentlichen Sphäre ins Individuelle ist.

AI is an Orwellian nightmare

I used to be able to search for things using a search engine. It would point me to a source of information, I could decide for myself if the source was good or not. But not anymore. Recently I just wasted a lot of time trying to find something using a search engine only to get lost in an ocean of AI slop.

I finally gave in and asked my question to ChatGPT and it answered my question perfectly, it even showed me where it got it’s sources of information. The places it linked me to were either no longer existent (if ever) or only vaguely related. But it at least created the appearance of citing factual sources of information, in whatever way the statistical models have been trained to give that impression to the humans who use it.

In Orwell’s novel “1984,” we saw how a single government agency took all control over information, how the staff would keep a database of facts but constantly alter these facts to fit the view of reality that their despot “Big Brother” wanted the citizens to believe. The same thing happens now with LLMs presenting a very carefully tuned image of the facts in the database.

AI chat bots are an innovative new method of brainwashing, one which nobody could have ever imagined possible even a few years ago: get everyone to trust a mechanical Big Brother because it chats with you like a friendly fellow human would.

Meta to train its AI models on public data of European users.

Meta on Monday said it would incorporate user interactions with its AI, as well as posts and comments by adults across its platforms, to train its artificial intelligence models in the European Union.

Users will still be able to opt out of having their data used.

More lessons learned using an #ai #chatbot to help write code. (See my original post for some of the other observations).

First, watch out for vibe coding. I start off asking it to do things I know and things I could double check if I wanted to. And it's really easy to start asking it to do things that I don't know how to do, and that I can't check.

Second, save checkpoints. I'm inviting the #LLM to modify the code files. Sometimes it modifies unrelated stuff that used to work and makes it not work, or makes it different. I ask it to calculate alt text, and it changes how the histogram is plotted. As I iteratively get things working, I do a git add to capture a working version. A couple times I let it make a series of changes and by the time I got to the last change, it had clobbered some intermediate states that were working, and I didn't have a copy of the code that was there previously. At each incremental step, VS Codium can use git information to highlight which lines have changed due to the most recent modifications.

Last, it goes without saying, I must go in behind it and clean things up. A funny thing it tends to do is get really attached to adjectives. I wanted my trend line to be yellow, and in order to be clear, I prompted with "add a 15-minute moving average trend line that is bright yellow". Everywhere it mentioned this trend line (in comments, in the alt text) it always said "a bright yellow trend line" instead of just "a yellow trend line". When I asked it to make the histogram bins "exactly one minute" (again, trying to be unambiguous), it then labels everything like the X axis label and the alt text with the phrase "exactly 1 minute" instead of just "1 minute".

Infosec ExchangePaco Hope #resist (@paco@infosec.exchange)So I'm doing some #AI coding using Amazon's Q Developer. It's frankly pretty impressive. I hate AI and #LLMs for all the right reasons, and this seems like one of the things that they're actually good at. I don't ask it to do anything I can't do myself. I can verify and understand every line of code it writes. But what I"m doing is really different than what's most people do with like a Clippy style chatbot butting into your typing in your IDE. I'm using the Q Developer CLI and it's a totally different experience. Here's a small thread on what it's like. 1/n
