Walled gardens
From xkcd’s ”Instagram” webcomic. Reminds me of how, when you’re not paying for the service, it is subject to disappear or close without previous notice — it also reminds me of “walled gardens”, term used in the context of technology to describe a platform that is not easily extensible or open.
Referring to something as “AI” is a flag you probably don't know much about the industry.
People in the field instead talk about specific technologies and techniques: machine learning, deep learning, neural networks, natural language processing (NLP), transformers, embeddings, reinforcement learning, large language models (LLM), robotics, latent

What happens to our trust in media when our capacity to generate it artificially improves to the point where we can produce indistinguishable fakes?
This creates a wave of "Skepticism," leading to what I term "False Positive Reality." In this state, our pervasive skepticism makes us doubt even the real labeling it as artificial, simulated,... See more

While organizations covet a means to manage these challenges, the fact remains that a large part of the solution resides within each employee and how they manage themselves. Daniel Goleman, psychologist and author of Optimal , deems this emotional intelligence (EI) , which he considers one of the most powerful and adaptive human capabilities.

A AGI é a utopia que empresas vendem ao mercado para seguir captando a quantidade absurda de dinheiro necessária para rodar modelos de IA generativa. Se realizada, seria uma espécie de deus capaz de nos levar a uma escala de trabalho 0×7 ou de subjugar a humanidade, ninguém arrisca dizer qual destino nos aguarda.

AI is aggregated human intelligence. So it’s better to call it collective intelligence than artificial intelligence.
Emphasizing the collectivity (something built on the commons) over the artificiality (a feat of technology) gives us an entire new way to see, perceive and relate to the technology.
