"The biggest + most disruptive series of AI-fueled breakdowns have been the server outages that have disrupted service to the MHDL search engine Lantern. These crashes are the result of LLM bots crawling the website, scraping the scanned trade papers + fan magazines to train their next gen models."
And so it begins.
De uitrol van een heel donker scenario: dat wetenschappelijk onderzoek in VS onder staatscontrole komt te staan.
De implementatie van de executive order ‘Gold Standard Science’ krijgt vorm. En dat is buitengewoon zorgwekkend.
Code dieprood.

Achter de schermen: OpenAI, Anthropic en Google klagen over diefstal van hun dure AI-modellen. Als je ze de juiste vragen stelt, verklappen de chatbots hoe ze werken. Dat kan gevaarlijk uitpakken.
My PhD Sajedeh Rasti has published a World View piece in Nature today: "Don’t compete, collaborate: why collective funding applications are the future" www.nature.com/articles/d41... She discusses how she successfully brought together a team of meta-scientists to collaboratively apply for funding.
Scientists with disparate expertise writing grants together can identify knowledge gaps and drive progress — but systems must change to incentivize them.
