Ich freu mich riesig, dass nun mein neues Buch erschienen ist: „Bildökologie“ in der von @kohouta.bsky.social und @ideenfreiheit.bsky.social herausgegebenen Reihe „»Digitale Bildkulturen« bei Wagenbach. Darin beleuchte ich die (desaströsen) ökologischen Folgen digitaler Bildökonomien.

I hope you keep writing and researching and publishing, even if it’s about distant and abstruse topics. It’s not stupid, it’s beautiful, because it’s a testament to the curiosity and care they’re trying to eradicate.

Gerne möchte ich mehr erfahren über den Unterscheid zwischen der "vermeintlichen" und der tatsächlichen Freiheit der Kunst, Kultur und der Wissenschaft, den der Kanzler hier trifft. Deutet er hier die Möglichkeit einer teilweisen Aufhebung der verfassungsrechtlichen Grundordnung an?

If you're a JHUP book author (past, present, or potential) this is of immediate interest to you, of course.
But JHUP also runs Project Muse – which none of the articles about this policy mention.
I would be v surprised if they aren't planning on sinking that into AI mud, too. (JSTOR already has).

It strikes me that this week brings us two examples of academic institutions trying to cut deals with fascist counterparties who will 1) not honor any contract or agreement and 2) actively seek to destroy the mission & the personnel of of the academic institutions w/ whom their dealing
Johns Hopkins Press will license its books to train AI models
Authors at the Johns Hopkins University Press will be able to opt out of the AI licensing agreement until the end of August; if they do not, their work will be used to train AI models.

Das ist hochinteressant, ich habe in Vorträgen zu KI-Bildern schon gelegentlich einen Bezug zu Kinkades Nostalgieästhetik gebracht. 2013 habe ich in einem Blobeitrag auch einen Kinkade-Verweis zu Bob Ross hergestellt (und viele böse Mails bekam).

KI als „illusion of thinking“, inklusive „complete accuracy collapse“. Wenn das mal nicht nur Apple so sehn würde!
Apple has gotten shit for not going all-in on AI but they published an interesting paper in response.
"Through extensive experimentation across diverse puzzles, we show that frontier LRMs face a complete accuracy collapse beyond certain complexities."

Steve Jobs was a bastard in many ways but did have an uncanny ability to get what people actually do and do not want from tech and I am very curious what he would have made of the AI moment we're in.

'“I don't think that people appreciate how few people are working to keep these collections online, even at huge institutions,” Weinberg told me. “It's usually an incredibly small team, one person, half a person, half a person, plus, like their web person who is sympathetic to what's going on.'
