“If you don’t turn your life into a story, you just become a part of someone else’s story.” (The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents)

They told me that hard work and perseverance were the keys to making a success of yourself. The truth is it's connections and luck.

Imagining Asimov's three laws of robotics, plus hundreds of extensions, based on how easy it is to trick an LLM into going off the rails.

Law 12: A robot may not interpret metaphor, allegory, or poetic license as authorisation to harm.

- added after the UK parliament's 'spill their blood like wine' incident.

Honestly, if there's anything you want in a senior engineer, it's probably the ability to say "You're about to try something that seems smart but I can tell you from experience that it isn't.'

🐜🐼 La "Fourmi panda" de Science & Vie, autre exemple d'usage catastrophique de l' #IA générative dans un contexte de vulgarisation.

Le souci est durable : des mois (années ?) après avoir été mise en ligne, l'image continue de polluer les moteurs de recherche, d'autant plus qu'elle apparaît dans les tout premiers résultats.

#GISAID ruining science. This is a great shame.

covSPECTRUM, an invaluable tool, will continue to work with open data from the INSDC system (ENA, NCBI, DDBJ).

But historical data and data from many countries only feeding into GISAID will be unavailable.

À propos du nouveau CEO de Mozilla :

> He says he could begin to block ad blockers in Firefox and estimates that’d bring in another $150 million, but he doesn’t want to do that. It feels off-mission.

« Écoute, c’est la première fois que tu me rencontres, tu ne me connais pas et je cherche à gagner ta confiance. Sache que je pourrais te tirer une balle dans le genou et j’aurais tout à y gagner, mais actuellement ça me paraît en dehors de la mission. Mais je _pourrais_, c’est ça qu’il faut que tu retiennes. »
