gentle reminder: all large language models are good at is predict the next word in a sequence based on previous words they've seen. that's all. there's no understanding of meaning whatsoever

🚨 [AI REPORT] Many people missed the EXCELLENT report "Stopping Big Tech from Becoming Big AI" by @maxvonthun & @danielahanley, a MUST-READ for everyone interested in AI & competition. Important info:

"1️⃣ A set of high-level principles for regulatory intervention serve as the foundation for the report’s recommendations. These principles include:
➵ preserving market diversity
➵ fostering fair competition
➵ emphasizing structure
➵ adopting a proactive (rather than reactive) strategy
➵ regulating where necessary
➵ ensuring regulators have the tools they need to do their jobs.

2️⃣ In particular, our report calls on governments and regulators to:
➵ ensure that new ex-ante digital competition regimes are ready to respond to emerging anti-competitive threats in AI
➵ block mergers and nullify existing exclusive partnerships that unfairly limit competition
➵ break up existing concentrations of power across the AI technology stack and target existing unfair market practices more generally
➵ guarantee access to essential inputs such as computing power by imposing non-discrimination obligations on dominant firms and applying structural separation where necessary
➵ empower businesses and consumers to switch providers by imposing data portability and interoperability requirements on cloud and AI services

3️⃣ Above all, it is clear that protecting and promoting competition in AI – and in digital markets more generally – will require a cross-governmental approach, in two senses of the term.
➵ First, the different constituent parts of government – competition agencies, consumer protection authorities, data privacy regulators – must work collectively to regulate AI and counter the concentrated economic power of a few gatekeepers.
➵ Second, governments around the world need to work together in taking on this ambitious task, given the transnational nature of the threat."

4️⃣ The image below is extremely interesting (page 14) as it shows big tech’s presence throughout the AI value chain (Source: Competition and Markets Authority).

5️⃣ I have seen people confuse technological innovation (e.g., the current generative AI wave) with full technological democratization (which has NOT happened), especially due to the consolidation of resources in the context of computing power, data, capital, ecosystems, and technical expertise (read the 1st chapter of the report). This is an important document to understand these macro trends in the context of AI & competition and potential remedies to avoid 'Big AI.'

La pregunta implícita és: si no es permet l'especulació amb altres béns de primera necessitat com l'aigua o la salut, o béns públics d'interès general com l'educació, per què sí que es permet amb l'habitatge?
