If you haven't already, please read @ginasue.bsky.social's short article. It is depressing for all the right reasons, and ends with: "Whether democracy can survive AI will depend on us. Moving fast and breaking things is not a way to sustainable build digital futures. There are ... alternatives."

Ok, quick thread on why DeepSeek is blowing up assumptions about LLMs and maybe the whole (U.S.) AI industry.

“At the turn of the 21st century, Internet-associated tech companies that are now household names were just starting up. Many presented an image of being fun & lighthearted, through whimsical names, amenities for software developers, & mottos like ‘don’t be evil.’” firstmonday.org/ojs/index.ph...
