    In case you needed to know, this is what *financial analysts* are telling investors: &gt; AI does not understand accountability, trust, culture, unwritten rules, ethical trade-offs or fairness, all of which shape reputational risk and ultimately drive revenue growth and profit margins. &gt; The bottom line is that the AI story will be decided in the S&amp;P 493, not the Mag 7, and so far, there is no evidence that revenue growth or margins are improving outside the tech sector. https://www.ap...

    Domani sarò al LInux Day Pordenone! Al mattino, con un talk su &quot;Il fenomeno IA fra mitologia, psicosi e plutoplolitica&quot; dove farò un po&#39; controcanto al coro mediatico degli ultimi anni. Al pomeriggio, mi presterò a una &quot;intervista impossibile&quot; nei panni del Prof. Weizenbaum, ma senza accento tedesco! Nel track &quot;IA&quot; mi alterno sul palco con Michael Saccone, Alex Raccuglia e il Prof. Giovanni Ziccardi 400 posti disponibili, ed esauriti, grazie alle scuole super...

    La Tesla &quot;volante&quot;* Se parliamo di spettacolo, è un colpo da maestro. Se parliamo di mobilità e automobili, è la grande idea di un ragazzino di seconda media, meno l&#39;alettone.

    Tesla &quot;flying car&quot;: If we&#39;re talking showbusiness, it is a master stroke. If we&#39;re talking mobility, it&#39;s an eighth-grader&#39;s idea.

    RE: https://social.coop/@adamgreenfield/117076914581549289 Every word of this, for every single fucking piece of software. IT is the only industry that gets away with treating clients like shit. This of course explains why basically nothing works, and if one wants to do anything remotely useful with a computer outside of programming (which is its own can of worms) one better rely on 40-year old tools and methods. Or maybe everyone ends up with Markdown fils because the hash/asterisk keys felt i...

    More and more convinced that using LLMs tells us so much more about workplace incentives and what can pass for &quot;work&quot; than it does about the technology.

    Me: I fear the moment when obbroprium, mobilisation and will have to be replaced with action, as open revolt is a very blunt instrument causing lots of collateral damage. Also me: let&#39;s burn this shit down.

    On est d&#39;accord que les Bleus doivent gagner ce soir, hein? Je veux dire, ils ont eu le culot de perdre le jour de la Bastille, et ça mériterait déjà d&#39;être fusillé dans le dos, mais après le Brexit, perdre contre les Anglais, ça mérite la révocation de la nationalité. #france #bleus

    @stefano@mastodon.bsd.cafe ciao! scusa il disturbo, ma sei la persona giusta per una domanda, giuro, veloce: Contesto: uso Linux per odio contro Windows dai tempi di Slackware 6. Mi giro nell&#39;amministrazione ma non ricompilerei il kernel a meno che non fosse assolutamente necessario. *Odio* systemd. Mi pesa che per riuscire a fare il tiling delle finestre devo scegliere apposta un window manager. Ora mi parlano di AI nel codice. Domanda: mi consigli di passare a BSD, e nel caso quale? Graz...

    #fedihelp hey Fedi! I am trying to get in touch with the owners to the rights of Joseph Weizenbaum;s &quot;Computer Power and Human Reason&quot;. The Weizenbaum Institute (a research institute, not a family foundation) does not seem too responsive. Last time (1987) the rights were with Penguin in the UK. These days they may be still with them or possibly with Prof. Weizenbaum&#39;s heirs. Anyone know someone who knows someone who knows someone? Thank you!
