@freemo @SirCandinavian@noagendasocial.com sorry for coming back to this, just wanted to point out that much of the hype is pure marketing, conflicting with facts https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2023/06/10/tesla-autopilot-crashes-elon-musk/
@mandon @dh consider https://uchitelnoevangelie.eu/?lang=en . This is a project for the creation of bidirectional dictionaries for an important text in Paleoslavistics, work with 4 Slavic manuscripts and around 30 Greek potential sources of the translation. As a biproduct we are creating also a huge lexicographical parallel corpus
@Riedl come to think of it, seems to be a new uncanny valley of a sort
@Riedl why do they all have these void faces? All stoned probably ;)

1/ With aviation supplies and maintenance services in short supply, Russian airlines now depend on questionable suppliers in the Middle East and Asia. Some airlines are said to be avoiding recording malfunctions in aircraft logbooks so that they can keep faulty planes flying. ⬇️

For some people, in some circumstances, owning a car might be unavoidable. In that case, driving the smallest possible electric vehicle that meets the bare minimum requirements for necessary transportation can be a reasonable choice. I recognize that.
On the other hand, driving a large, heavy SUV, whether electric or not, is *never* acceptable. That should be obvious. And if you're in a position to walk or bike or take public transit instead of using a car — as I do, even when it's inconvenient — then that's the best choice of all.

🧐 Have you seen our Free to Protest Guides? 🧐
We believe that people should be able to attend peaceful protests without the police using sophisticated surveillance tools to monitor, track & identify protestors indiscriminately. 📢
Take a look ⬇️
@triptych I hope you don't mind me asking: why would you want to do that?

1/ Sanctions on the Russian aviation industry are leading to an increasing number of malfunctions and emergency landings, due to a lack of maintenance and technical support, and an acute shortage of spare parts. Safety is said to be gradually deteriorating. ⬇️
By now it is clear that ChatGPT and other LLMs have been oversold, thanks to the powerful media presence of their creators and the wishful thinking of audiences. Many of the claimed miracles of such systems have been disproven. Here, just another such research that trashes bold non-scientific claims. This doesn't mean LLMs are not useful, just that the term AI grows the wrong expectations in the human mind

A good resource for that: WHO's guide for "unhooking from difficult thoughts and feelings"
@Riedl Would you see this as a good reason to avoid being dependent on this particular service offered by Google for the future? I personally don't use it, probably difference in our requirements is that my homeworks do not require GPU. This is why I'd be curious to hear how this particular bad experience changes the balance of your assessment that leads to the choice of platform. My assumption is that local venv or containerised environment are potential alternatives
@gwagner putting down the fences on both sides of the scene might also be a thought to ponder about
@Occidental @randomwalker @sayashk I'm not sure whether they can afford to monitor their input data or not. What is clear by now is they don't want to do it.

Studying neurobiology to understand humans is like studying ink to understand literature.

Last week I spoke at @journalismfest@twitter.com on how open-source intelligence is used to combat propaganda and uncover new information during Russia's war on Ukraine. Thank you for having me.
I promised to share a list of links to tools and sources. Here it is (I hope it helps) 👇

Tucker Carlson and Fox News have parted ways days after the network reached a settlement with Dominion Voting Systems for over $787 million. A source familiar with the situation told Axios that the firing was not part of the settlement agreement.

Someone else experiencing difficulties registering for @IAIEDsociety@twitter.com membership via their website? I can't select the membership type drop-down. Different browsers give different errors in the developer console, all appear to be related to JS dependency libraries
