Here's a thought experiment.

Imagine a stamp mark with the words "Made with #AI" on it.

If you see this mark on a picture, illustration, mobile app, song, movie, or story - do you get the notion that this product is of higher, lower or unchanged quality?

If you see two identical products for the same price, where one has an AI mark and the other doesn't - which one would you buy?

(Please retoot this #LLM #poll for wider reach)

AI mark signals HIGHER quality
0.2%
AI mark signals NO DIFFERENCE in quality
2.6%
AI mark signals LOWER quality
97.3%

Boosting my 7th FOSDEM visit!

Attended "An Open Source RISC-V CPU in FPGA" by Kristoffer Robin Stokke at UiO. Pure OS joy!

- 32-bit `RISC-V` CPU in open `VHDL` on a cheap FPGA
- Minimalist: UART, SDRAM, pixel screen
- All source code open

Saw the FPGA board IRL—tiny silicon, big dreams. Bare-metal computing distilled. Trying to convince Kristoffer to present this at FOSDEM!

Another highlight of this year's #embedded week in Nice: seeing the #PipeWire & #libcamera workshop teams meet up with the #GStreamer hackfest crew for a pizza night in the city! #OpenSource brings people together!
