Prognose: Der Begriff AI (bzw. KI) bewegt sich in Lichtgeschwindigkeit von einer Angeber-Vokabel zu einem Igitt-Wort, mit dem man nicht in Verbindung gebracht werden will. Indiz: Technikhersteller, bei denen vor einem Jahr noch alles "AI" war, nutzen nun (wieder) andere Begriffe, hier z.B. Nikon:

Wer erinnert sich noch an SETI@home? Ich habe damals auch mitgemacht, hatte aber nicht auf dem Schirm, dass das bis 2020 lief. Das FAST-Teleskop untersucht jetzt die 100 letzten Signale: www.merkur.de/wissen/alien...
SETI-Forscher macht sich selbst Hoffnung: „Wir könnten ET um Haaresbreite verpasst haben“
Millionen Computer suchten 21 Jahre lang nach außerirdischen Signalen. Von 12 Milliarden potenziellen Kandidaten bleiben nun genau 100 mysteriöse Fälle übrig.

Stell dir vor Südeuropa säuft ab und niemanden interessiert’s. Dass Sizilien, Kalabrien und Sardinien gerade auch eine Jahrhundert- Katastrophe erleiden interessiert auch niemanden.
Der Westen der iberischen Halbinsel wird dieser Tage von einigen #Sturmtiefs getroffen.
An der portugiesischen Küste gibt es am Mittwochmorgen bis zu 14 m hohe Wellen und #Orkanböen bis 140 km/h.
Dazu gibt sehr viel #Regen: bis Ende der Woche in Staulagen bis 250 mm - dazu #Schnee auf den Bergen.

Da sollten Gewerkschafter nicht schweigen, wenn Gewerkschaften mit fake-Bildern Stimmung machen wollen. Was sagt denn der DGB dazu?
GdP Sachsen nutzt KI generierte Bilder für eigene Narrative (Bild via @boschpolforsch.bsky.social). Es ist das erste Mal, dass ich solche Bilder von seriösen Stellen sehe, die Ereignisse so darstellen, dass sie besser ins eigene Bild passen. Das ist nicht gut, der DGB darf hier nicht schweigen!

Ein Schusswechsel ist, wenn 2 Seiten aufeinander schießen. Das war nicht der Fall. Nicht einmal Trumps Agenten haben das behauptet. Sorry, aber solche Fehler dürfen Medienprofis nicht passieren. Europa hat keinen Grund, sich in den US-Autoritarismus mitziehen zu lassen. Das hier ist Medienversagen.

I was a sensitive kid. I loved cats. I had OCD, undiagnosed.
When I was 9, a fraternity brother tortured a cat to death in my hometown. The details even now are beyond imagination. archive.is/xdmUL
I was traumatized for years from reading the news story.
The torturer? Now the head of the NRA.

We are transforming into an autocratic state, at this very moment.
DHS is saying federal agents are above local & state laws. DHS is saying that they alone will decide what their officers are allowed to do. DHS is saying they are in control, they make the rules, and the law does not apply to them.

Which economy is more productive - Germany or the US? It seems the answer would be clear, but it's not.
The mood in Germany is so deeply negative, even aggressively pessimistic, that I thought we had fallen behind by a lot. But here are the facts - they surprised me as well:

In my fifty years in politics, I don’t think I’ve seen anything like this before.
I haven't always agreed with Jerome Powell, but what Donald Trump is doing is out of the dictator’s playbook.
Kudos to Powell for speaking out.

As ICE terrorizes communities, remember that some of Trump's biggest supporters are private prison corporations making bank off his deportation agenda.
Trump has unleashed billions of dollars worth of funding for these companies while offering them "no-bid" contracts.
Cashing in on cruelty.
