If AI stays closed-source, proprietary and monopolistic like it is now, it will destroy lots of jobs and just make the richest companies richer and more powerful!
If we open it up thanks to open science and open-source, foster competition and decentralization of value and…
These data points revealed in the FTC v Meta trial are beyond disturbing. Meta had a designation for "groomers" and recommended millions of minors to them. Front page stuff. Meta is facilitating online sex trafficking at a massive scale. bigtechontrial.com/p/instagrams-a…
Alarming. 'Within minutes after DOGE accessed the NLRB's systems, someone with an IP address in Russia started trying to log in, according to Berulis' disclosure. The attempts were "near real-time," according to the disclosure.' npr.org/2025/04/15/nx-…

I think Elon Musk should be expelled from the British Royal Society. Not because he peddles conspiracy theories and makes Nazi salutes, but because of the huge damage he is doing to scientific institutions in the US. Now let's see if he really believes in free speech.
Thanks to @AliVelshi for the great discussion about the work FTC did to protect Americans from corporate abuse and the way antimonopoly laws are designed to protect against unchecked concentrations of economic power.

Stop saying "Privacy no longer exists".
It's not just disempowering, it's also completely untrue.

Massachusetts puts curbs on private equity health investments, including a de facto ban on sale leasebacks for acute care hospitals. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

I know it's easy to feel disempowered in the face of rapid change. But there are only two options -- you can give up, or you can exercise your agency and try to regain control. Only one of these options is valid.
Congratulations to OpenAI on the release of o3. The results are impressive and it's important that this technology remains accessible to more than a few powerful companies. With hard work and determination I expect the open source community can catch up in 3-6 months. Let's do it
BERT was completely forgotten by the media & AI hype but was probably the most influential model of all times (thanks @GoogleAI)!
Excited about ModernBERT by @answerdotai!
You don't want big models for 99% of the AI tasks that can be done better, faster, cheaper with smaller…
Peter Thiel is very comfortable talking about the end of the liberal order when the alternative is Technofeudalism run by his friends.
But the end of that order seems less appealing when the masses are drinking his blood rather than the other way around.

The reason it’s not getting more coverage is that remedying the conditions that led to this, which we’ve been warning about for years, would require unwinding dangerous x surveillant norms the current tech industry relies on.

The @FTC previously ordered Epic Games to pay $245 million for tricking players into making unwanted purchases & letting kids rack up unauthorized charges.
We are now sending the first round of refunds totaling more than $72 million to those harmed.

It's time for American and European companies (apart from Meta) to launch open-source models instead of wanting to restrict even more. China is dominating everything.
