Seems like they get annoyed about retaliatory #tariffs from the EU.

And now they're threatening a 200% tariff on alcohol from EU countries unless the "nasty 50% tariff on whisky" is stopped.

I agree. Very nasty! Very unfair!

Stop this 50% round-number nonsense and reduce it to 49.9%.

If sleep was a subscription, what tier are you on?

1. Deep Sleep Pro Max – 8 hrs, no dreams, wake up glowing.

2. Scroll & Pass Out – #Sleep happens when your phone hits your face.

3. Nap Roulette – Will you wake up refreshed or in another dimension? Spin the wheel.

Where do you rank?

AI bias in a nutshell:

Me: AI, make a fun human-iceberg interaction. No ships! No Titanic!

AI: Here’s an upbeat iceberg-human moment. No ships.

Me: Still kinda Titanic-y. No ships!

AI: Fixed it! No ships.

Me: No ships!

AI: I got you.

Me: What the fork!

We toss around words like "trust" and "collaboration" when talking about AI—but are we just fooling ourselves?

How we talk about #AI shapes how we think about it.If you’ve ever struggled to translate ideas between #languages, you’ll get it.

Worth a read.

LLMs make weird mistakes, which indicate two areas of research. "The first is to engineer LLMs that make more human-like mistakes. The second is to build new mistake-correcting systems that deal with the specific sorts of mistakes that LLMs tend to make."

Valentine’s Day (14th February). Some people go all in. Roses. Reservations. Maybe even a handwritten poem on parchment paper (probably sealed with wax, because why not). Others dodge the whole thing....

#Valentine'sDay

Which group are you in?

1. Best day ever!
2. Single and loving it.
3. What day is it?
4. Too commercial.
5. Feels forced.
6. I don't mind.
7. We should do something.

Just working my way through my weekly reading list.

Came across an opinion piece that offers a really important perspective for anyone feeling overwhelmed and frustrated.

Look closely at the first two weeks of Donald Trump’s second term and you’ll see something very different than what he wants you to see.

7 ways to keep AI honest ︱ by @lennartnacke.com

Writing used to be simple. […]. Then generative AI waltzed in like Ron Burgundy, pretending to know everything—and often knowing nothing. Some praise it as academic writing’s saviour; others fear it’ll destroy scholarly credibility. [Keep reading ⮛].

valentine’s day❣️

love it, tolerate it, or ignore it?

a sweet excuse to do something nice, or just overpriced expectations?

is it even about romance anymore, or just a date we feel obligated to acknowledge?

does the day actually matter—or do we just go along with it?

OmniHuman-1: AI-Generated Humans Just Got Real 🤖

A few years ago, I saw my first #deepfake. It was clunky, glitchy—more funny than scary.

Now? #AI can take one photo, one voice clip and turn it into a lifelike, full-body animation.

Exciting? Terrifying? Both?

Italian False Friends That Will Betray You 🇮🇹

I once told an Italian friend "Mi annoi."
I meant "You annoy me." 😤
Their face? Rather confused.

Turns out, I actually said "You bore me." 😳

- Annoiare = To bore 😴
- To annoy = Irritare / Dare fastidio 😤

What's wrong with #chatgpt today? It ignores instructions, it outputs the same wrong result again and again. I say, don't start a sentense with 'ever'. The first sentences starts with '...' 😠 You are fired! At least for today.

When learning #Italian, I kept forgetting the same words again and again.

->Look it up. ->Forget it. ->Repeat.

I thought I was bad at #languages. Turns out, my brain was just doing its job.

Here’s why we keep forgetting words—and how to fix it for good. #langsky

I'm not big on #karaoke, though I totally admire those who own the mic. But here's the weird part: when I asked #GenAI to come up with a fun pic, it bizarrely landed on a karaoke theme. 🤔 Like, what's the AI trying to tell me?

PS: AI anatomy fail with bonus stereotypical bias.
