Today, millions of people woke up to see the problem of a broken information ecosystem that asymmetrically favors anti-democratic & authoritarian emotions, narratives, actors and movements.
Some suggest to fight fire with fire, build a left-leaning influence machine against the rightwing one...

Here's some ideas: start from the platforms, look into the recommender systems which manipulate us, let the users see when they're being nudged to a certain way & give them control, break the information bubbles, make SoMe more transparent & promote kindness & rationality over provocation and anger.

1/ Why does RL struggle with social dilemmas? How can we ensure that AI learns to cooperate rather than compete?
Introducing our new framework: MUPI (Embedded Universal Predictive Intelligence) which provides a theoretical basis for new cooperative solutions in RL.

The argument “LLMs will never be intelligent because language ≠ thought” misses two points:
1. AGI isn't aimed from an LLM alone
2. Text is not just statistics; it is compressed world models. Well written counterpoint by Saeid Mokaram:

Large Language Models Will Never Be Intelligent, Expert Says
The AI industry is staking its future on language models. But LLMs, an expert argues, are fundamentally incapable of being intelligent.

Ihmettelinkin ensin miksi ihmeessä murtautuja niihin alahyllyjen juomiin iski, mutta eihän se raukka vaan ylettynyt parempiin juomiin.
The masked burglar broke into the closed Virginia liquor store early on Saturday and hit the bottom shelf. The bandit was something of a nocturnal menace: bottles were smashed and alcohol pooled on the floor.
The suspect acted like an animal because, in fact, he's a raccoon.

#GenesisMission is sold as “public interest AI” but it sounds like a giant state backed model trained on everything. How long until the administration starts “inviting” Big Tech to share user data behind closed doors?

For years I’ve argued that EU should build its own social media platform focused on open dialogue and democratic resilience, not profit!
Why do we let Big Tech dictate digital discourse? EU must invest in open source tech and create its own noncommercial network for the public good.

“Given the severity of the threats social media companies pose to democracy and fundamental rights, policy responses cannot merely tinker around the edges,” writes Christine Galvagna. The EU must act now—fund decentralized, public service social media to protect democracy and digital rights.

It’s absurd that some officials bought into the AI hype so deeply they’re ready to gut GDPR to please Big Tech!
Handing private data to US giants won’t benefit society, it just fills their pockets. EU must resist BigTech pressure & wake up from this blind faith in AI bubble which is bound to burst.

Tekoälyn piti puskea aivan pian kohti superälyä eli ns. AGIa. Sen sijaan odotukset ovat hälvenneet ajan mittaan ja nyt tekoälyfirmat koettavat keksiä tapoja kuluttajien tyytyväisenä pitämiseen.

Normal isn't a fact; it's a perception built from repetition & power. My brother can call a night of missile fire normal simply because he's used to it.To an outsider, the scene is clearly abnormal. Judgements of normality rest on thin, shifting ground. History shows how quickly baselines move. 5/n
