For about two months now, we’ve been getting almost ten applications a week from designers and creatives. Before, it was maybe three a month.

The big #AI tsunami has clearly reached the entire #creativeindustry.
Clients are already integrating AI-generated images and drafts into their briefings.

Das ist dann vielleicht mal ein zweiter Versuch. Wir wollen schon auch kochen aber eben einfach ohne jegliche Fertig-Produkte oder raffinierte Lebensmittel. Also zum Beispiel auch kein Brot. Haferflocken lassen wir durchgehen. Die sind einfach zu lecker.

Wir sind sehr gespannt, wie das funktioniert und was es mit uns macht. Aber erst wenn wir aus Spanien zurück sind. Hier gibt es einfach zu viele gute Restaurants 🤷🏻‍♂️

My partner and I were just wondering what it would be like to spend a whole month eating entirely unprocessed, from-scratch foods. Nothing pre-made, packaged, or refined. Just the basics: potatoes, rice, vegetables, meat, juice we squeeze ourselves.

The idea felt oddly exciting.

Anyone tried it?

Writers like Ocean Vuong, especially in The Emperor of Gladness, break that cycle, dismantling the images we hold of love, age, and memory.
That book completely upended my idea of what a novel can be — a truer form of iconoclasm: breaking illusions, not understanding.

Most novels today feel trapped in familiar patterns; very few dare to question how we think, not just what we feel.

I’d actually see it differently.
For non-fiction, the goal isn’t to shatter beliefs but to deepen understanding. Otherwise it slips into ideology rather than inquiry.

If anything, I think fiction could use more of that iconoclastic spirit.

Just 250 malicious training documents can poison a 13B parameter model - that's 0.00016% of a whole dataset

Poisoning #AI models might be way easier than previously thought if an Anthropic study is anything to go on.
Data quantity doesn't matter when poisoning an LLM

There’s nothing more boring than people who broadcast their weirdness like it’s something original — especially when you can tell exactly which behavior catalogue they got it from.

The pavilions are 'truly inspiring, habitable sculptures', ones that 'embrace a playful openness to varied artistic activities'. The structures form a network of connected yet distinct platforms where communities can independently gather and spontaneously create:
