🔗 Why OpenAI added an NSA Chief to their board
Mr Gioia (the other one) lays out the spectrum of possibilities of why, offering his own take.
What do you think?
I have a hard time getting my head around a ‘Manhattan project for AI’. Not that it’s a bad idea .. but … have you checked out DC lately?
🔗 😂 Classic Victor Borge (Insta)
I read this today
in 🔗 Austin Kleon’s Newsletter.
Now let me be clear - I am not so old that I ever used one, BUT
I do know what it is and where it was used … and sadly I am old enough …
Freddie Star isn’t exactly a household name - even in the UK - but back in the day 🔗 📼 😂 he could be very funny.
🔗 Daring Fireball: Apple ID to Be Renamed to Apple Account .. which is an excellent idea. It’s time it was recognized that our ‘ID’ doesn’t belong or get managed by a Corporate … finally Apple get is it. Besides, ‘Account’ is much more logical.
🔗 📼 Larry Lessig on ‘How AI could threaten democracy .. yes .. and having listened to it - I’m not sure if that is REALLY what it is about.
If you haven’t got 20 minutes to watch the whole thing - try this - the last minute of the talk - because I think THIS is what it is about. (its a link to the last minute of the talk).
🔗 The GOP’s Vision of an Authoritarian America Is…Coming True.
Umair Haque nearly a year ago. He seemed a little extreme back then.
Not seen much comment about this (but then I don’t always read the right things).
Sadly I won’t be experiencing it any time soon.
1] Serious props to @gruber and team
2] If Apple doesn’t know - I feel they should work it out … quickly.
Stopping now - 🔗 📼 to watch the 2D version.
🔗 I’ve done mine. .. have you done yours?
🔗 Thanks for the the link Joe/
(This is why my 🖇️ Guestbook blog roll is useful.)
I just signed 🔗 Joe Crawford’s guest book. I also have one of those. The one that @bjhess built. 😎 I have to say that only as I have wandered the web and signed have I realized how unusual Barry’s is - in that allows Markdown - which if supported allows me to leave my Kilroy moniker …
