Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>LOL - Total Idiocracy: "It's possible that the White House may be looking to replace Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth after critics warned that a pair of controversial Signal chats risked compromising US national security.</p><p>In March, it was revealed that Hegseth accidentally texted secret bombing plans in a Signal chat that included a reporter, raising alarms about his handling of sensitive military information. And then this weekend, The New York Times revealed that he similarly shared the attack plans, just minutes after learning of them, in a personal Signal chat that included his wife and brother.</p><p>That second revelation sparked a "full-blown meltdown" at the Pentagon, The Guardian reported, apparently prompting the Trump administration to begin "the process of looking for a new secretary of defense," a US official granted anonymity told NPR Monday."</p><p><a href="https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2025/04/white-house-plagued-by-signal-controversy-as-pentagon-in-full-blown-meltdown/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">arstechnica.com/tech-policy/20</span><span class="invisible">25/04/white-house-plagued-by-signal-controversy-as-pentagon-in-full-blown-meltdown/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/USA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USA</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Pentagon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pentagon</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/DoD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DoD</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Signal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Signal</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Security" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Security</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Intelligence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Intelligence</span></a></p>

Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>"We must stop giving AI human traits. My first interaction with GPT-3 rather seriously annoyed me. It pretended to be a person. It said it had feelings, ambitions, even consciousness.</p><p>That’s no longer the default behaviour, thankfully. But the style of interaction — the eerily natural flow of conversation — remains intact. And that, too, is convincing. Too convincing.</p><p>We need to de-anthropomorphise AI. Now. Strip it of its human mask. This should be easy. Companies could remove all reference to emotion, judgement or cognitive processing on the part of the AI. In particular, it should respond factually without ever saying “I”, or “I feel that”… or “I am curious”.</p><p>Will it happen? I doubt it. It reminds me of another warning we’ve ignored for over 20 years: “We need to cut CO₂ emissions.” Look where that got us. But we must warn big tech companies of the dangers associated with the humanisation of AIs. They are unlikely to play ball, but they should, especially if they are serious about developing more ethical AIs.</p><p>For now, this is what I do (because I too often get this eerie feeling that I am talking to a synthetic human when using ChatGPT or Claude): I instruct my AI not to address me by name. I ask it to call itself AI, to speak in the third person, and to avoid emotional or cognitive terms.</p><p>If I am using voice chat, I ask the AI to use a flat prosody and speak a bit like a robot. It is actually quite fun and keeps us both in our comfort zone."</p><p><a href="https://theconversation.com/we-need-to-stop-pretending-ai-is-intelligent-heres-how-254090?utm_source=firefox-newtab-en-gb" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">theconversation.com/we-need-to</span><span class="invisible">-stop-pretending-ai-is-intelligent-heres-how-254090?utm_source=firefox-newtab-en-gb</span></a></p><p><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/GenerativeAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GenerativeAI</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/LLMs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LLMs</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Chatbots" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Chatbots</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Intelligence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Intelligence</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Anthropomorphization" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Anthropomorphization</span></a></p>

Douglas E. Welch<p>Curiosity: The neglected trait that drives success via BBC [Shared]</p><p>On 7 January 1918 at New York’s Hippodrome, the incredible illusionist Harry Houdini unveiled one of his most famous tricks – the vanishing elephant – in front of thousands of spectators.</p><p>The beast in question, Jennie,&nbsp;reportedly weighed 10,000 pounds&nbsp;(4,536kg). She raised her trunk in greeting, before a stagehand led her into a huge cabinet and closed the doors behind them. After a dramatic drum roll, the doors reopened – and the cabinet was now empty. To the thousands of spectators, it seemed that she had vanished into thin air.&nbsp;</p><p>How could Houdini have managed to hide such an enormous animal? No one at the time could provide&nbsp;a definitive explanation of what had happened, though there is one predominant theory.</p><p><a href="http://welchwrite.com/blog/2025/04/11/curiosity-the-neglected-trait-that-drives-success-via-bbc-shared/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">http://</span><span class="ellipsis">welchwrite.com/blog/2025/04/11</span><span class="invisible">/curiosity-the-neglected-trait-that-drives-success-via-bbc-shared/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/curiousity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>curiousity</span></a> <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/Thinking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Thinking</span></a> <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/intelligence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>intelligence</span></a> <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/trait" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>trait</span></a> <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/education" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>education</span></a> <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/career" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>career</span></a> <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/shared" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>shared</span></a></p>
