And it's still true.
I’m not surprised they don’t really care. I was a bit surprised they put it this bluntly.
“To make our lawyers happy:"
This is very clear, succinct and spot on. I immediately support these principles.

When I made my poster "If AI was like a hammer" I got some pushback for 'exaggerating' how much more energy intensive it is than using other tools for similar results.
When it comes to overall climate impact I think I may have been soft-pedaling.

For secure online communication most experts agree that Signal is the top choice.
But it's not as easy as just downloading the app to stay really secure.
Here's a good primer you may want to save as a reference:

Meredith Whittaker (president på Signal) har oerhört mycket bra observationer och reflektioner också. Hon kommer ju ursprungligen från Google där hon grundade deras Research Group, och blev oustad därifrån pga sitt etikfokus och startade AI Now Institute innan hon hamnade på Signal.
Gah, jag hör ju själv, jag måste göra en lista... 😅
Den här artikeln är ett givet bokmärke.

Ja jag misstänkte nog att det var det du menade. 😁
Mina hjältar var ju tidigt Emily Bender och Timnit Gebru, och hittade några till på din starter pack.
This time around in hospital I've challenged my introvert self and sat down with people at breakfast.
So many awesome life stories I've heard. Running a theatre, fire security on cargo ships, radio installations and much more.
I could do podcast interviews for a year on this coronary care unit.
Also, in work situations now I'm often older. At the coronary care unit I'm the young guy. 😁
Tip to try out Bluesky labels, a labeller that adds a label with your pronouns - that also become visible in feeds for people who use the same labeller.
How it works;
1) Subscribe to the feed
2) Select the posts tab and like the post that contains your pronouns
3) Done

Now I'm just waiting on someone to build a UX labeller with UX professions, which can help all sorts of discovery. I would myself if I had access to anything resembling time 😅 My head also isn't screwed on right with all these health issues at the moment.

Jag tycker det är svårt att hitta kvinnliga AI-forskare som alls tror på detta uppdiktade väsen. Företagsledare kanske.
Jag uppskattar själv hur Iris van Rooij och Olivia Guest påvisar att det är lönlöst att försöka, och ett oerhört slöseri med planetens resurser:

Jag uppskattar också att Fei-Fei Li säger rakt ut att det inte finns någon definition av AGI och att det då inte går att säga så mycket om det.

Lower expectations and word count. Points you want to make in social media can often expand to broader points with examples. 4-5 paragraphs is also a blog post. A 7-item list of advice is also a blog post.
Things you want to easily find and remember that are useful to you will be useful to others.
I really, really long for a blog revival.
Last tip: If I for example write a longer LinkedIn post, that also gets published on my blog.
Chances are you have basically finished blog posts from having answered emails or questions in other forums.
More easily found on a blog, and more resilient.

I seem to have checked all (and I have start letters + what letters should be inside words), but found two extra words after this break… Maybe I'll look in an hour again 😅
For everyone on Warfarin therapy (or other #anticoagulation medication) I recommend this app.
This app takes into account that you regularly renew doses and keeps track of when your next #INR test is.
You get useful stats w/ ability to share/backup.

Wow. respect. This was very hard. I gave up at 31 words. Those "z"s were maddening.
