This is Alex Pretti, a VA ICU nurse, honoring a veteran he cared for at a VA hospital.

The son of the deceased veteran just posted this video on Facebook with the following message:

“RIP Alex Pretti,
he was my Dads ICU nurse, he read my dad’s final salute at the VA after he passed away. Never wanted to share this video but his speech is very on point. Also my Fathers final words to me was continue to fight the good fight. He would be honored in Alex’ sacrifice, and ashamed of this current administration. In my Dads words I encourage you all to continue to ‘fight the good fight’”

What Trump is doing in the United States is the same as what Putin did in Russia in the early 2000s—almost the same playbook, with only slight differences.

If this isn't challenged, the US could become a fully authoritarian state within the next five years.

@gaz_EOD @ZelenskyyUa When Zelenskyy walked out of the Oval Office, the last shred of courage, dignity and class walked out with him.

Microsoft released their annual Future of Work report and this time around it’s not about remote work, it’s about AI. (slide numbers in brackets)

- Knowledge workers with ChatGPT are 37% faster, 40% higher quality but ~20% less accurate. Simple UX solutions to solve this are possible. (6)

- From a survey of enterprise users of Microsoft Copilot 365 (7):

- 73% agree that Copilot makes them faster.
- 85% said it would help them get to a good first draft faster.
- 72% agreed about spending less mental effort on mundane or repetitive tasks.

- Most early studies have found that new or low-skilled workers benefit the most from LLMs. Less skilled workers improved by 43% vs more skilled who improved by about 17%. (8)

- Assistant needs to be paired with provacators i.e. LLM-based tools that challenge assumptions, encourage evaluation, and offer counterarguments. (9)

- AI can help with breaking down simple commands into micro-moments and microtasks, improving overall quality and efficiency. (10)

- Analyzing and integrating AI-generated information may become more important than searching and creating information. Skills not directly related to content production (leading, social interactions, trust issues, or emotional awareness) may be more valuable. (11)

- Prompting is hard, but people are getting good at it. Fine-tuning/using LLMs to generate prompts is making it easier as well. Prompt templates are helpful for end users. (12-14)

- Highlighting errors/uncertainty percentages can help balance reliance on LLMs. Prompting can be complemented with co-audit tools to check LLM outputs. (17-18)

- Generative AI requires self-awareness and well-calibrated confidence. At the same time, it can help in getting there too. (19)

- Creative activities are a process and LLMs can help across different parts. (21) 69% of Bing Chat conversations are in domains oriented toward professional tasks. (22)

- A larger chunk of LLM-based searches is complex (36% of them) than traditional searches (13% are complex). (22)

- In a study of 69 students, the use of Codex improved their performance in learning Python, but it did not impact their manual code-modification abilities. (24)

- LLMs can rapidly analyze data from humans and generate synthetic data. That’ll change how social science research is done. (27)

- LLMs in meeting can solve different problems like equal participation (instant feedback) and better interactions (retrospective feedback) (28-29).

- AI can help in delegating management responsibilities, freeing execs to focus on team vision. (30) 

- Modern office knowledge is in chats, not documents but applying AI over employee chats is tricky. (31-32)

- Approx. 80% of the US workforce could have at least 10% of their work tasks affected by GPTs. Around 19% of workers may have 50% of their tasks impacted. (38)

- “Innovation vs. automation” is often a better framework to use than “substitution vs. augmentation”. Augmentation can still mean job loss. It is important to try to track whether and where human labour is being used in innovative new ways. (39)

- Instead of “How will AI affect work?”, the question should be “How do we want AI to affect work?” (40)

@yoyoha @iamharaldur What’s more, within a year from now all art will be at least to some degree inspired by AI as it will permeate all media. AI is becoming part of the fabric that is us, quickly and unstoppably. I love new tech, but I’m freaking out about this. Not sure «just embrace it» cuts it.

[Kristian Vanberg @kvanberg]

@yoyoha @iamharaldur AI will do art, film, jokes etc better so it will have to be art for the sake of art, will be hard to find an audience … the only thing AI will never be able to/better at is to know what is is to be a human being. But that’s arguably not a shared experience, either ..

@NHSDigital on this page https://t.co/LTBTQ7GqP1 you need to list this option https://t.co/Mh5UE3k1Qw for parents of 12 year olds where ID not recognised and linkage code etc not available from GP - it's a lifesaver

@ContactKingston Any news on this? Can I maybe pick up myself? Or you could send man & van? Or uber?

[Kristian Vanberg @kvanberg]

@ContactKingston Do you still offer this service?

[Kristian Vanberg @kvanberg]

@ContactKingston Thank you, much appreciated

[Kristian Vanberg @kvanberg]

@ContactKingston New year coming up … I’m paying for this?

@MarkCCrowley So if a client/vendor invite me to a teams meeting I must accept they are profiling me/my behaviours, for undisclosed purposes. Charming.
