AI won't displace doctors, but doctors who don't advocate for open-source innovation risk being displaced by those who monopolize medical knowledge.

Looks like the lobbying for regulatory capture to ensure lock-in of profits to the private sector is working. :(
Guys wake the f up. This is going to destroy us - sooner than we think - if we don’t make AI regulation a national priority tomorrow.

@kamiljdudek @echo_pbreyer Our position remains the same, unchanged by trend, season, or tiresome rebrand of the same busted chat control concept.

Die Europäische Union plant ein #Gesetz, das private #Nachrichten auf Messengerdiensten durchsuchen lassen will. Angeblich, um Kinder besser zu schützen. Deutschland lehnte das erstmal ab. Aber ein neuer Vorschlag liegt schon auf dem Tisch: Verschlüsselte #Chats könnten damit

Sounds a bit sensationalized to me, but the core point is right: cyber-security teams need to understand and use AI more, which is exactly why open-source matters (also, shows that APIs aren't safer for these risks than open-weights)
We disrupted a highly sophisticated AI-led espionage campaign. The attack targeted large tech companies, financial institutions, chemical manufacturing companies, and government agencies. We assess with high confidence that the threat actor was a Chinese state-sponsored group.

@OpenMedFuture @vonderleyen Yes, freedom of the press is a fundamental right that underpins democracy's separation of powers, enabling accountability and preventing tyranny. The European Democracy Shield claims to safeguard speech and media, yet EU precedents like the Digital Services Act often label

Breaking: we release a fully synthetic generalist dataset for pretraining, SYNTH and two new SOTA reasoning models exclusively trained on it. Despite having seen only 200 billion tokens, Baguettotron is currently best-in-class in its size range.

AND IT IS OUT! We have had enough reports saying Europe is stagnating. Change is not possible if we do not change the way the EU works. With Bengt Holmstrom and @competitionprof , I argue the EU should focus on prosperity and stop regulating everything. https://t.co/iZnCssIiP7

Open source AI finally holds the promise to realize Vatican II's vision by empowering the whole People of God with transparent, inclusive tools that foster active participation, and shared responsibility in shaping the future of society.
Technological innovation can be a form of participation in the divine act of creation. It carries an ethical and spiritual weight, for every design choice expresses a vision of humanity. The Church therefore calls all builders of #AI to cultivate moral discernment as a

Just came back from a private event with the policy eco-system of the German / Berlin. And I feel so energised. I provoked, called AI „Neuland“ and had such a great and open dialogue. Wir schaffen das!

A very frustrating part of the AI Wars has been the willingness by some to ignore experts in favour of listening to those who were telling them what they wanted to hear.

A journalist contributes to this system by holding those in power accountable through their role in reporting the news, acting as a check on the government and other institutions. The separation of powers is crucial for maintaining a free and independent press, which requires

@mcuban That is a ridiculous statement, as the problems you mention (without giving any examples) are not typical of open source. Closed AI systems that hide their ideological and political biases due to trade secrets are much more dangerous than open source models. Yes, these LLMs are

Is this person 👇🏻 seriously under the impression that OpenAI is democratizing knowledge, when their actions are clearly paving the way for new monopolies? The only way to truly democratise AI is to open source it‘s core. And yes in healthcare, safety and liabilities do play a
OpenAI just made it official that ChatGPT can’t give medical or legal advice, even when it’s accurate. So let me get this straight: AI that can pass the US Medical Licensing Exam and score higher than law graduates on bar questions… is suddenly too “unsafe” to tell someone what

In the shadow of Gutenberg's press, the world didn't bloom overnight, it erupted. Scriptures once chained in monasteries flooded the streets, birthing the Reformation's fire: indulgences peddled like snake oil crumbled, peasants rose against princes, and kings trembled as ink
We're actually very lucky because of this trend. Not just at a civilizational level, but as a species. In the Dark Timeline, AI was so arcane and expensive that literally ONLY a Manhattan 2.0 could crack the code, which would have meant that, by default, it was a closely

AI's existential threat? Not centralization or regulation, but decentralization unleashes individual creative utility, defining true AI alignment.
