Humaniste & optimiste aimant l‘humour. “Imagine all the people living life in peace. You may say I’m a dreamer. But I’m not the only one.” (John Lennon)🌸🕊🇪🇺
Une pétition portée par l’association Eurêka et par plus de 120 signataires pour le rétablissement des points bonus du grec et du latin au bac. À l’heure où les humanités sont plus que jamais nécessaires, une pétition à signer et partager massivement. https://t.co/tJr9duWaKM
Students without access to LLMs are 2 to 8 times more creative than students with access.
That is the finding of a new paper comparing 2,200 college admissions essays written by humans before ChatGPT with essays generated by GPT-4.
The key point is not individual creativity. GPT-4 can write well, sometimes better than individual students. The problem is collective creativity.
Each new human essay added new semantic territory. New ideas. New angles. New experiences. New combinations.
Each new GPT-4 essay added much less.
The authors call this the diversity growth rate: how much novelty each additional text contributes to the collective pool of ideas.
Humans kept expanding the pool. GPT-4 made the pool converge.
Even when the authors pushed GPT-4 to be more creative, changed parameters, or used chain-of-thought prompting, the homogenizing effect remained.
This is the real danger of AI in education.
Not that students will write worse.
That everyone will write the same.

Paul McCartney (@PaulMcCartney) extends his lead as the most successful albums act of all time on the Official Chart, adding yet another Number 1 to his tally with The Boys of Dungeon Lane! 🥇

imagina ter 83 anos, mais de 6 décadas de carreira, e mesmo depois de todo esse tempo fazendo música ainda conseguir se reinventar e alcançar o top 5 da billboard com álbum novo.
paul mccartney você é um dos maiores artistas que o mundo já viu!
Also the Pope is talking about Epistemia. AI can “weaken personal judgment.”
This is exactly the point we make in our paper on the epistemological fault lines between human and artificial intelligence.
LLMs and humans do not merely differ in performance.
They differ in their epistemic pipelines.
We identify seven fault lines:
Grounding.
Parsing.
Experience.
Motivation.
Causality.
Metacognition.
Value.
At each step, human intelligence and artificial intelligence process the world in structurally different ways.
And yet, LLM outputs are so fluent and confident that we often treat them as true.
This is how we enter Epistemia: a regime in which epistemic verification is replaced by linguistic plausibility.
A world full of knowledge that we are not able to judge.
A world in which we will be totally lost.

"La vie n'est supportable que si l'on y introduit non pas de l'utopie mais de la poésie, c'est à dire de l'intensité, de la fête, de la joie, de la communion, du bonheur et de l'amour."

Rolling Stone calls it a masterpiece. Variety calls it his best of the century. Paul McCartney's 'The Boys of Dungeon Lane' is out now, and the reviews speak for themselves. And they're right. https://t.co/ZKgRAhXRWS
Corría 1958. Un pibe de Liverpool llamado Paul tenía una bandita, The Quarrymen, con la que entró al estudio a grabar por primera vez una canción de su autoría. Se llamaba "In Spite of All the Danger".
Hoy, 68 años después, acaba de publicar su nuevo disco. Gracias por tanto.
The Pope is making exactly our point. LLMs “may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand.”
This is the core epistemic fault line.
Most AI evaluation is still based on one assumption: if a system statistically approximates human behaviour, then it is close to human intelligence.
But approximation is not intelligence.
Simulation is not understanding.
LLMs can produce the right answer without knowing why it is right. They can simulate empathy without feeling. They can imitate judgment without responsibility. They can generate coherent explanations without having a world to which those explanations are accountable.
Stop confusing behavioural similarity with cognitive equivalence.
Human understanding is embodied, affective, relational, motivational, and normative. It is not just the production of plausible text.

Eres contemporáneo a todo eso, disfrútalo. Es una bendición.

Novak Djokovic leaves Roland Garros to a standing ovation after his loss to João Fonseca
39 years old and competing with an incredible talent TWENTY years younger than him for 5 hours
On top of that, leaving with a gracious smile
Legendary stuff 🥹
Artificial intelligences do not undergo experiences, do not possess a body, do not feel joy or pain, do not mature through relationships, and do not know from within what love, work, friendship or responsibility mean. Nor do they have a moral conscience, since they do not judge good and evil, grasp the ultimate meaning of situations, or bear responsibility for consequences. They may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand what they produce, for they lack the affective, relational, and spiritual perspective through which human beings grow in wisdom. #MagnificaHumanitas
« Il faut lire des livres difficiles (…) et forer pour aller chercher la connaissance, elle ne va pas nous arriver sur Instagram ! » pour la journaliste et influenceuse Sophie Fontanel #UMUR@fitouss
Ma mère etait femme de ménage dans 4 endroits différents avec 4 hernies discales , elle a eu 5 enfants et mon père magasinier gestion de stock qui a eu un grave accident de travail à la toute fin de sa carrière. Ils ont mis 25 ans a payer une maison.
Travailler une vie entière à se casser le dos et vouloir transmettre des biens, acquis à la sueur de son front, à ses enfants c'est un "truc qui vous tombe du ciel" selon @YaelBRAUNPIVET
Je suis fonctionnaire à Paris et je n'aurai pas d'autre choix que de renoncer à cette maison si le système ne change pas. Et donc de renoncer à cette maison où nous avons vécu enfants et tous les souvenirs partiraient en fumée parce qu'une élite décidera de me l'arracher.
La Macronie à un moment ça suffit!
Vivement @davidlisnard et @Nouv_Energie pour l'élection Présidentielle 2027!
