🇮🇪 The Irish state has published an advert discouraging grandparents from hugging their grandchildren, as part of a campaign designed to promote "consent".
We’re releasing a broad range of new mathematical results produced by an internal frontier model.
We’ve been consulting with the independent Advisory Group on Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence at the Institute for Advanced Study, and we have drawn on their advice and public recommendations to inform how we release these results.

"Only use AI when needed because of the environment"
Insane UK scarcity mindset.
Advice should be - use AI to massively increase productivity and deliver value for money for taxpayers.
the uk government's official ai guidance tells civil servants to use gemini flash instead of pro, keep prompts short, and not say thank you to it, for the environment
i do wonder at which point we forked the road. instead of building and using it to automate the work, we write guidance on how to use less of it
we have the attitude of a high school prefect. caring more about the rules than actually doing the work
President Trump on Truth Social says there will be no AI slowdown or pause. It's full speed ahead. He says the entire thing is a "sick conspiracy" against AI and data centres, and the only one who would benefit is China. I will quote:
'Treasonists, Traitors, and Leakers, BEWARE!'
In 3.5 years, we went from GPT-4 which couldn't reliably add two numbers together to a 10,000 agent system that can autonomously solve a Millennium Prize problem. This is what exponential progress looks like. Accelerating, awe inspiring and terrifying.
How accurate have Ed Zitron's AI skeptic predictions been?

ALT Feb 2024: "I believe we're reaching the upper limits about what generative AI can do and how accurate its outputs can be."

March 2024: "Have We Reached Peak AI?"; another prediction that hallucinations mean that AI progress is limited to then-current levels
Wrong
April 2024: "As I previously warned, artificial intelligence companies are running out of data ..."; another prediction that models can't improve because there's no more data
Wrong
June 2024: OpenAI growth is stalling (with the implication it will continue to stall), which will lead to some kind of collapse of OpenAI
Wrong (it could be the case that OpenAI will collapse but, if so, it won't be due to any kind of growth stall from 2024)
July 2024: "Generative AI, as I said back in March, is peaking, if it hasn't already peaked. It cannot do much more than it is currently doing, other than doing more of it faster with some new inputs"

The truth always comes out.
Today, justice has finally been served for Natalie.
Natalie is, and always will be, what matters most.
Nothing can ever bring Natalie or her unborn baby boy, Dean, back.
But they will remain forever in our hearts. 🩷💙
Everyone at the England & Wales Cricket Board is deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Robin Smith.
An England and Hampshire legend.
Rest in peace, Judge ❤
On 18/12/2022, before Christmas, my sister Natalie and her unborn son Dean was brutally taken from us.
DCI McGuinness, and his PSNI team, are keen to establish a picture Natalie’s social connections, particularly from those made through this platform and others.
Natalie McNally was murdered in her own home. Her killer is still at large.
Do you recognise this suspect, even his gait, or backpack?
Did the behaviour of someone you know change after this murder on Dec 18?
