Computer science people have developed an unintentional form of gatekeeping by virtue of being extremely bad at explaining/naming things, which results in simple concepts sounding far more complex than they are.
For my first post, I’m sharing a letter @NVIDIA signed on why open models matter.
AI will transform every industry, power every company, and be built by every country.
Open models strengthen safety and cybersecurity, accelerate innovation and diffusion, and enable sovereignty.
The world needs both frontier closed models and frontier open models.

@augmentaltech There’s a point of realization where innovation improving accessibility to technology actually needs to be halted for the sake of humanity.
‼️ BREAKING: Volkswagen has banned GrapheneOS users from using their app. Users are reporting they can't log in or control their car anymore. Users are confused, saying Volkswagen allows their app to be used on End-of-Life Android versions, but not on fully patched GrapheneOS.

There are a significant number of people who are trying to get into sports but are inherently uncomfortable with competition, which is a really odd dynamic.
Social media makes very dumb people very loud. Mixed with a majority of people being impressionable, bad recipe. Conversation is necessary, easier to deduce substance in claims.
@LinkofSunshine “My heart rate went up a little” the lack of emphasis on differentiating AI text from human text is nasty stuff. Going to lead to more problems than the terminator reality people are fantasizing.
This is what I mean when I tell you that companies don't take your privacy seriously.
Alaska Air already has my government ID. They know my legal name, my birthdate, my face. I cannot board their plane without handing that over.
But that's not enough. Just to view their website they require me to DEGRADE my privacy AND security so they can collect even more data about me. They won't let me even look at their website unless they collect my IP, geolocation, finger print my browser, and collect any information they can use to identify me even more. The data they want is precise enough that it makes me trackable across the whole internet long after I use their site.
This is not for my privacy or security. When companies say they value your privacy, what they really mean is your privacy is valuable to them, like an inventory item. They harvest privacy, not protect it. AlaskaAir you need to do way better than this.
‼️ Finally some justice for the deceased cancerbro, who got robbed of his cancer treatment money: the FBI has arrested 21-year-old Florida man Zyaire Wilkins after he used illicit Bitcoin to fund his DoorDash orders, and accused him of financing and marketing malware-laced games, including BlockBlasters and PirateFi, that infected roughly 8,000 devices and stole at least $220,000 in crypto.
