«If there is to be a progressive employment of this digital technology then this code and software will need much reconsideration.
Ultimately it may only be the humanization and collectivization of the Internet that sees true progressive values being met.»

Very excited to introduce Contxt Workspace for Museums — a promising first step toward bringing every museum natively into the digital world.
Every institution we spoke with faces the same challenge: tiny teams managing collections of hundreds of thousands of artworks and their rich curatorial histories. Hundreds of millions of data points for one-and-a-half people to work through. Impossible to get done.
Contxt Workspace was built from the ground up to give those teams real operational leverage. It reads, sorts, edits, and connects everything so any question can be answered in minutes rather than weeks.
It also prepares every artwork, exhibition, and person for easy digital publishing — so the treasure trove of your institution’s history can finally be used to tell more and better stories, both online and in the building.
I find that over-specifying disregards a model's innate decision-making. I’m also expecting the harness to matter less the more capable models continue to get. To harness the full potential, let the model harness itself.

Why does chatGPT make up fake academic papers?
By now, we know that the chatbot notoriously invents fake academic references. E.g. its answer to the most cited economics paper is completely made-up (see image).
But why? And how does it make them? A THREAD (1/n) 🧵

You wouldn‘t downlod a color.
Fun times ahead for #Adobe designers. Today, if you open a PSD (even one that's 20 years old) with an obscure PANTONE colour, it will remove the colour and make it black. Pantone want US$21/month for access, and Solid Coated goes behind the paywall in early November.

one of the most ominous papers i've read, where ppl training AI to discover ways to improve human health instead go "hm, i wonder what happens if we just flip the direction of training from 'help' to 'hurt'"
