Codex, OpenAI’s new bug factory
There was a lot of talk about this shit, and now it went live: Introducing Codex: “A cloud-based software engineering agent that can work on many tasks in parallel, powered…
AI is already vibe enslaving us
Time and again, we're told that AI hallucinates, that it's unreliable, that it can't write reliable code, nor could it replace meaningful jobs. And yet… Satya Nadella, on April 29,…
China repeats all the mistakes made by the West—and yet…
There are only a few thoughts that I wanted to express since some time already. Nothing too fancy, just some basic ideas. My recent “love for China” started before the…
Those analysts still don’t get it
I just happened to read this opinion by Quinn Slobodian in The Guardian: “MAGA’s sinister obsession with IQ is leading us towards an inhuman future.” Yes, it does. Of course…
AI: Hallucinations, agents, CO2, buttholes, books, and old news
I'm not genuinely captivated by the AI; quite the opposite is closer to the truth. But given the hundreds of billions invested so far in AI and the hysteria that…
Azure AI: I’m too old for this shit, but Whisper works—locally
I'm not a fan of “everything in the Cloud” dogma. I prefer local apps, because otherwise why would we need anything else than Chromebooks, if everything is hosted on Azure,…
I’ll call it “Techno-Dark-Mafia”
I started to write this more than one week ago, but further events made me postpone it. Because of the delay and of the other disturbing international evolutions, I have…
Le Chat Mistral: Se iau 2-3 mazări mari, se taie în felii subțiri…
Pentru că tocmai v-am îndemnat să instalați toți chatboții majori pe telefon, hai să vă dau și un exemplu de tâmpenie marca AI. Ce poate fi mai inocent decât o…
Computerul zice da. Oamenii zic nu.
De când am scris The suicide of the car industry nu am mai insistat pe tema monștrilor de pe șosele. YouTube se pare că mă cunoaște însă, așa că mi-a…
Învățăturile lui Nea Guță Basarab către părinții de adolescenți
Știu că visez frumos când spun că „soluția este educația, nu cenzura”, dar cred cu tărie că cenzura nu este o soluție pentru nici o problemă. Simțul critic sau spiritul…
Not everyone is dumb regarding AI. But many are.
As usual, I find more fun reading the comments to some articles than from the articles themselves. Two selections from the NYT, with my comments to other people's comments, plus…
Încă un mic eșec al agenților AI
E un test microscopic, nu oricât de relevant, dar care m-a agasat. Cum am mai spus-o în câteva rânduri, una din utilizările pe care le dau acestor chatbots de toată…
Saponins from Edible Legumes, Grok, and You
To prove that I am not 100% against Generative AI, I spent exactly 5 minutes to feed Grok a random study, ask it about the gist of it, then demand…
Slobozul LLM de pe tavan
Un comentariu la această postare de pe Facebook din care nu voi cita nimic aici; doar voi comenta. Încă un entuziast AI care umple tavanul de sloboz de atâta fericire.…
Dr. Martin Jan Stránský, D-zeu, AI și apocalipsa
There is also an English version of this interview: 📰 Exclusive Q Magazine. Dr. Martin Jan Stránský, neurologist, author of the book “The Rise and Fall of the Human Mind”:…
The Suwałki Gap, aka the Suwałki corridor, is no corridor at all!
I tried to understand what's the deal with the Suwałki Gap, which sometimes is called a corridor, and the mainstream sources were of no help. The Wikipedia article about it…
Peekaboo: Top 8 chatbots ➕ Top 10 advanced ways to use LLMs
I had a strange experience with Claude yesterday, and it made me reanalyze the reliability and the practical availability of the main AI chatbots freely available online. It’s by no…
Quickest quickie: Claude 3.7 is here
Just before taking an 8-day pause from blogging, I noticed that Claude got a version upgrade. The official announcement, Claude Sonnet and Claude Code, is informative enough, but there are…
Me no know much, but running LLMs locally was disappointing
I never thought I’d be doing that, especially as it doesn’t make sense on a €400 laptop that lacks a proper GPU and VRAM: i3-1215U with Intel graphics (ADL GT2)…
Führer’s Grok 3 is promising―and expensive if you need more of it 🥴
It's a disgrace to have an LLM and an AI chatbot belonging to a complete asshole and a Nazi. But the AI model per se seems promising. What I mean…
