Meredith Whittaker is one of the smartest and most articulate leaders in tech I’ve ever seen, and I suspect that her thoughts on agentic AI and the like have more brain cells behind them than all of the rest of Silicon Valley combined.
Worth a watch:
Head of Signal, Meredith Whittaker, on so-called "agentic AI" and the difference between how it's described in the marketing and what access and control it would actually require to work as advertised.

This woman has way more brain cells than all other CEOs of Silicon Valley. Maybe you should listen to her @wired.com instead of interviewing dumb people who just want to sell their products… just saying…

Data sovereignty is of course important but ditching this shitty Microsoft stack is also very important too.

Just finished « Still wakes the deep » and it was not bad at all!
Maybe a bit too long (or too repetitive) but the sound and visual environment was amazing.
The horror atmosphere (mixed of Amnesia and Lovecraft) was great too.
A good moment, well done #ChineseRoom and #SumoDigital

Almost as amazing is that four hours after this post, the hacked updates are still there.
Scoop: The databases powering DOGE.gov are insecure, and people outside the government have already pushed their own updates to the site to prove it:

The comparison is a bit unfair as Aaron Swartz has downloaded the documents from an open network that did not require any authentication, otherwise I agree that evil people are not punished.
Fuck Zuck.

Meta illegaly downloaded 80+ terabytes of books from LibGen, Anna's Archive, and Z-library to train their AI models.
In 2010, Aaron Swartz downloaded only 70 GBs of articles from JSTOR (0.0875% of Meta). Faced $1 million in fine and 35 years in jail. Took his own life in 2013.
