@WhiteHouse This is depraved, dehumanizing propaganda.

[Kari Kraus @karikraus]

@SecDuffy Duffy's statement is disingenuous & misleading: he wants Americans to think the only safety roles at the FAA are those filled by air traffic controllers. Musk fired other employees in key safety-related roles, including those who operate & maintain air traffic control systems.

[Kari Kraus @karikraus]

@SecDuffy According to reporting, officials let go included "key safety-related roles" https://t.co/iq1n4qBuKH

@SecDuffy In 2019 you voted against a bill that would have provided $17.5 billion for FAA operations, including money to cover air traffic controllers, the modernization of air traffic control, technological infrastructure, & runway upgrades. You have ZERO credibility.

@SecDuffy Sean, no crashes on his watch. And hardly any for the last 23 years. And now you're turning it over to Elon who knows zilch about any of this. Everyone sees how in over your head you are.

AP reported that in the 2024 election, @elonmusk secretly funded ads through a PAC that deceptively suggested Trump's views on abortion aligned w/those of former SC Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. How does Musk possibly avoid cognitive dissonance when posting something like this?

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

@60Minutes 60 Minutes are the biggest liars in the world! They engaged in deliberate deception to interfere with the last election.

They deserve a long prison sentence.

@Ted_Underwood Combination of datasets and instructions in the form of templates for each dataset. Instructions represent common tasks such as translation, summarization, etc.

[Kari Kraus @karikraus]

@Ted_Underwood's contribution to the #CriticalAI forum has me trying to wrap my head around the distinctions between prompt-tuning, fine-tuning, and instruction-tuning. The differences between the first two are readily apprehensible. +

[Kari Kraus @karikraus]

@Ted_Underwood Okay, Figure 3 in the paper clarifies things! Instruction-tuning is now coming into focus for me!

@markcmarino @mkirschenbaum Mark, the memoir deserves a Pulitzer!

We're still in the early days of LLM humor, but I absolutely loved this from @carolinebasset1, wondering if "what came out as Wordsworth was the product of overfitting in a training corpus" #criticalAI #GuysInTheSub https://t.co/ZiqjMl2HrN

@elotroalex Alex, that is one of the sweetest compliments I've ever received. And one of the most beautiful. Thank you.

Will LLMs (e.g., chatGPT) replace fiction writers?

In our upcoming #DIS2023 paper with @NElmqvist, @Bhavya__Ghai , and @karikraus, we explore how AI and Visualization can extract and represent nuance character traits from a fiction. (1/n)
