Every time I am on X at the moment, I get several negative campaign ads for the German election from paid for reach campaigns from new non-German language accounts with less than 10 followers.

That’s interesting: a random hater can push his message on X to ~30k views and has a little commercial (Werbung) Label. I‘m wondering who pays for these campaigns…

Correct. If the birthdate field contains corrupt or mismatched data, it defaults to 1875-05-20, which serves as a flag. May 20, 1875, is the day the international standards and metrics treaty was signed. Everything is a conspiracy when you don’t know how anything works.

This is the playbook. Find single cases of possible errors or fraud in the system as argument for destroying the entire system. Automation will then be used to take away people‘s rights. Read about it in „Automating Inequality“ by Virginia Eubanks.

I guess the AI-boom is not so self-confident after all ... a little open language model gets released and Nvidia is losing close to 20% in value ($500 billions) in a couple of hours. #AIBubble #DeepSeek

Does anybody have positive experience with the pre-print service Research Square (Springer Nature)? After three weeks, the article is still under initial screening and they are trying hard to sell me their language quality improvement service - this feels a bit like a scam.

Sure, I could say some things about social media and politics right now. It’s my job and everything. Instead I ran outside in the freezing temps to join my neighbors who are setting off their leftover stock of New Year’s fireworks. DC needs something to celebrate. #Commanders 🧨 🎇

Liebe @faznet.bsky.social Redaktion, hört mal in Eure KI Artikel rein. Euer Text2Speech Tool macht aus "KI" die interessantesten Wörten. Ev. kann man da nachhelfen. Einfacher Trick wäre auch, vor dem Senden an das Voice Tool, Wörter zu ersetzen, z.B. KI -> Kaa-I oder so ähnlich könnte helfen.

For those of you interested in algorithmic manipulation, this is the Twitter notification today for me (and I assume for many German accounts). No, I am not following this or similar persons.

Steve Bannon: Musk just spent a quarter of a billion $ to elect Trump, if he puts the same amount of money into all of Europe... he will flip every nation to a populist agenda. There’s not a centrist left-wing government in Europe that will be able to withstand that onslaught.

People are often surprised when I tell them this: both Twitter and Facebook/insta/threads are now specifically engineered to downgrade, hide, suppress real journalism. If this platform is different, that's a huge change

Can we detect #hatespeech at scale on social media? To answer this, we introduce 🤬HateDay🗓️, a global hate speech dataset representative of a day on Twitter. The answer: not really! Detection perf is low and overestimated by traditional eval methods arxiv.org/abs/2411.15462 🧵

In a keynote from @alondra.bsky.social on governing the future she made a case for why we should all care about AI ethics - more than half of Americans are more concerned than excited about AI. We can’t get to benefits of AI until we have guardrails people trust. www.marquette.edu/data-ethics-...
