We are at a crossroads where technology no longer wants to create a better world. The battle for AI domination feels more and more like these movies portraying the battle of giant robots destroying everything on their way. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

1/ For Apple, AI means Apple intelligence. It means limiting all the features of generative AI to a set of predefined features. This is very clever.

This thought from last year still haunts me. In his masterpiece, The Man in the high castle, Philip K Dick imagines two realities competing at the same time. Now, we could choose to live in hundreds of them

From now on, there will always be an AI-generative version of our reality. It is disturbing to know that ourbreality can literally be reprompted. For example, this photo coverage of yesterday's flash insurrection in the street against Macron's pension reform is not real. 👇

Three reminders: 1. The architecture of generative AI may be the most inefficient one in tech ever to be rolled out on a mass scale 2. Every positive thing you have been told about generative AI is a lie 3. Every word spoken by management at OpenAI is a lie Have a nice day.

AI policy is a new & fast-moving field & it’s healthy & important to have a diversity of perspectives. However, this thread contains some extreme inaccuracies — indeed outright fear-mongering — about our AI safety legislation (SB 1047) that need to be corrected: 🧵

It is fascinating to see the current AI investment space. VC’s spending billions in pedigree companies (former researchers from big tech) that behave more like private AI labs than startups. Meaning with no real product or monétisation in sight. – at Paris, France
