@furicle I found this, but not the one you refer to. But thank you for referring me to his quotes. Some real nuggets.

"Progress isn't made by early risers. It's made by lazy men trying to find easier ways to do something."

@danhon @trisweb

Thank you for sharing this Dan. I actually haven’t seen it, so now it’s definitely at the top of my ”watch next” list

Sometimes I wonder what would happen if love, rather than efficiency, was the primary driving force of technological advancement.

One of the earliest typewriters was invented by Italian nobleman Pelligrino Turri for Countess Carolina Fantoni da Fivizzano when she lost her sight.

Sometimes I wonder if love is actually the only force that makes technology advance, rather than recede, humanity.

Moving very fast in the wrong direction is not progress.

Trying to catch up and hold on to something that is moving very fast in the wrong direction doesn't make you "ahead of the game".

Best is to wave gently and wish them good luck. Make yourself comfortable, read a good book. Sooner or later they will come back around and ask how you can be so far ahead. 😁❤️

I’m hoping a person who speaks at least English, French and German (or any other combination of the advertised languages) will do a writeup on all the weaknesses (and dangers) inherent in the concept of Spotify's new podcast auto-translation feature. If you see someone writing about this, do share it with me.

In July I got a tip introducing me to the paper 'A Framework for Understanding Sources of Harm throughout the Machine Learning Life Cycle' (Suresh & Guttag, 2021). It contains a very useful diagram outlining where and how bias will affect the outcome of the machine learning process. I could not help but apply my own visual interpretation to it for use in teaching. Feel free to use it to understand why and how so-called AI tools may contribute to harm.

I contacted the authors, Harini Suresh and John Guttag, and have their approval for my reimagination of their chart. For an in-depth understanding of the different biases I recommend diving into their paper (linked in the post).

In my post I provide a brief overview of the biases that the diagram addresses. You can also download the diagram in PDF-format.

@ctietze I'm the same! In my case I'll likely pay up. I'm not entirely happy with the export options in GoodNotes though (no SVG), it's just the most straightforward one that works for my simple needs.

Where did all the people suggesting you invest in NFT's go? 😂

If you remember who they are, keep an eye on what they're pushing now and that will likely give you some insight about the value of the new "thing".

So much of digitalisation appears to be about creating a world where no human will ever to talk to another human face-to-face again.

It feels off…

@argv_minus_one He was reprimanded and didn't really live out his life in riches. But yeah, I see what you mean.
