Solid, factual analysis of the current state of Chinese language models. FWIW this largely mirrors my own thoughts.

The vast majority of material on this issue is uninformed, attempting to further a US domestic policy agenda, or both. This essay, by contrast, is analysis.

NEW: Josh Hawley goes off on Mark Zuckerberg and forces him to stand up, turn around and apologize to families who were impacted by child exploitation on META platforms.

Humiliating.

"You didn't take any action. You didn't fire anybody."

"There's families of victims here today. Have you apologized to the victims? Would you like to do so now? Well, they're here, you're on national television."

"Would you like now to apologize to the victims who have been harmed by your product? Would you like to apologize for what you've done to these good people?"

We are the first in the world to set in place real regulation for #AI, and for the future digital world driven by AI, guiding the development and evolution of this technology in a human-centric direction.

@vestager @EU_Commission thinking right now: "We are so back 🚀"

[Sergey Lagodinsky @SLagodinsky]

@BertuzLuca Protecting general interest will be today our task as co-legislators. The whining and campaigning by „smaller companies“ combined with governments being overperceptive to such lobbying might lead to failure. This would be a huge setback. We will fight for sufficient regulation!

[Nick Moës @NicolasMoes]

One can't help but marvel at the selectiveness of the innovative force that is silicon valley, and its ability to ignore externalities it causes. @VaclavSmil "a brief history of hype and failure" will have a 2nd edition soon I suppose.

#AIAct now please 🙏

W/o even trying, just Sunday night mindless prompting ... and here is what "life" looks like on #DALL·E x #GPT4 today.

It's been over 8 years (& >$400bn in investment?!) since bigtech #AI-enabled #racism made the news for the 1st time.
We are headed into a massive wall 🫠

[Nick Moës @NicolasMoes]

Salt into the wound, GPT informs us it apparently features "a diverse group of people" ... smh

"first" news story I had in mind:
