Journalist challenge: Use “Machine Learning” when you mean machine learning and “LLM” when you mean LLM. Ditch “AI” as a catch-all term, it’s not useful for readers and it helps companies trying to confuse the public by obscuring the roles played by different technologies. 🧪

I dag er det den årlige markeringen av Holodomor, hungersnøden som i 1932/33 ble iscenesatt av russiske myndigheter. Akkurat som russerne fremdeles i dag drives av hat mot ukrainerne, i dag med glidebomber og droner som daglig dreper uskyldige sivile.

Dette tok jeg nesten for gitt allerede. Kreml sine planer funker best som dasspapir.

På tide å klage inn #nrk for å være talerør for Kreml igjen. "Fredsplan" hvor 🇺🇦 skal gi fra seg våpen nå, lissom.

This is interesting — a recent study of mode share (the % share of transportation trips by car, transit, walking, biking etc) relative to city size and income levels in almost 800 cities in 61 countries. Interesting results. HT @davidzipper.bsky.social

Two years ago, Viktor Orbán’s foreign minister Péter Szijjártó visited Nicolás Maduro, backed Venezuela’s pro-Kremlin regime, opposed US sanctions and interference, and even signed gas and oil agreements. I'm curious how fast they try to scrub those photos now as Trump prepares to strike Venezuela.

Bare kort innom for å si at jeg akkurat har binga de fire episodene av Ølhunden Berit, og dette er det aller beste jeg har sett av levende bilder på aldri så lenge 😭❤️❤️❤️

Veldig bra av @annesigrid.bsky.social her!

Språkmodeller er, og blir nok aldri, noen "kunstig intelligens". Vi er nå i en kritisk tid for å holde både unge og voksne bevisste på hva språk og kunnskap faktisk er.
Jeg skrev om den kompetansen man faktisk trenger i språkmodell-samfunnet (spoiler: det er ikke å være god til å prompte)
Du må kunne mye for å bruke KI
Den viktigste kompetansen barn og unge kan tilegne seg, er å forstå tekster i en gitt sammenheng.

Dette er det en gjeng i høye posisjoner her hjemme som også bør lære noe av!
I think this is the first time I've EVER heard a politician speak the unflinching truth like this instead of cowardly skirting round the issue.

In so doing, @zackpolanski.bsky.social speaks up for all those groups threatened by Trump's actions.

We need far more of this courage in politics.
Zack Polanski on President Trump, "It's difficult to call him anything other than a fool"

"This is sociopathic behaviour"

"He is toxic, misogynistic, racist"

"I'm not a fan of Trump"

There's lots you can and should criticise the BBC for.

But it's our BBC - and it's important.

Great to speak to CNN - Donald Trump shouldn't have his hands anywhere near our public services.

"According to the publication, the communications could demonstrate willful infringement, potentially leading to enhanced damages of up to $150,000 per work, a massive increase from just $750."

The fact that it was ever at $750 is a slap in the face.

Richard Murphy 🇬🇧 burde følges av flere. Selv om hans britiske perspektiv ikke er 100 prosent overførbart til Norge, har han en klar og tydelig formidling av hvordan dagens økonomiske system er dysfunksjonelt og hva som må til for å gjøre det mer bærekraftig.

🇺🇸 knerte islamister i Nigeria 🇳🇬 nå? Høres jo ut som en smal sak 🤦‍♂️
Hey look… the “no more wars” president is threatening to invade Nigeria now.

Does Trump know that the Russians are targeting and killing Catholics and Protestan Christians in Ukraine?

Brexit var en stor suksess for Russland. Ja til både 🇬🇧 og 🇳🇴 I 🇪🇺!
The end of free movement of people with the European Union has been a “disaster” for the UK that should be urgently reversed, new Green Party leader Zack Polanski told POLITICO — in his first major intervention on EU policy.

Ukraine’s Navy has received additional Combat Boat 90 vessels from Sweden and Norway, completing a full division based on this platform. The CB90s are among the world’s best fast assault boats, used by many NATO countries for troop landings, coastal defense, patrol, and maritime security operations.
