@apnews.com sues the Trump administration 👌 “The First Amendment prohibits the government from asserting control over how news organizations make editorial decisions,” the letter said. “Any attempt to punish journalists for those decisions is a serious breach of this constitutional protection.”

OpenAI claims ChatGPT is used by 400 million active users on a weekly basis, which makes it increasingly a consumer company. With other (open source) LLMs gaining ground, will users stick around when they have better (and cheaper) options? www.cnbc.com/2025/02/20/o...

[Opinie NRC] "De ‘AI-race’ heeft geen finish" Ik schreef opinie over misvattingen en foutieve frames rond AI. Zo klopt er niets van het beeld dat regulering innovatie zou fnuiken. En er bestaat niet zoiets als een ‘AI-wedloop’. 👇 www.nrc.nl/nieuws/2025/...

Shameless. The National Science Foundation fired nearly 170 workers in a Zoom call on Tuesday morning, @kimzetter.bsky.social reports. The terminated workers were told their employment would end at 5 pm EST today 👇 www.wired.com/story/nation... @wired.com

De vervlechting tussen (inter)nationale nieuwsmedia met AI-bedrijven gaat verder ondanks grote risico’s. De vraag rijst of ze niet dezelfde fouten maken als met de socialemediabedrijven... 🫠 www.nrc.nl/nieuws/2025/... @juurd.bsky.social

The Department of Government Efficiency’s website is a joke, much like the department itself. 🫠 It looks like the website you tried to make during the Summer holiday when you were 12. #DOGE

Ok, so this has touched a nerve 🙏 I think these results show that we need to resist the AI hype more than ever, not in the least for the deployment of it in newsrooms. AI is often not the answer to the problem you are trying to solve!

BBC just released damning research on AI assistants' news accuracy. Results: 51% of AI responses had significant issues. 19% introduced errors when citing BBC. 13% misquoted or made up BBC content entirely. 🤐🤐 www.bbc.co.uk/aboutthebbc/... via @ezraeeman.bsky.social

I think 'Tech Coup' is too mild of a term for what we're seeing right now. "In the first three weeks of the new administration, Elon Musk’s cost-cutting team has swiftly inserted itself into at least 17 federal agencies, according to a tally by The New York Times."😱 www.nytimes.com/2025/02/07/u...
