@LeoR1010

Ja! Det är lika förvånande varje år (av någon anledning) hur mycket bättre jag kan må bara av förändringarna i temperatur och ljus.

Gäller att vara mer tålmodig med sig själv och sitt mående andra halvan av året.

Köpte direkt denna pin. Gillar starkt sättet att signalera vikten av samtal. https://mind.adoveo.com/start/TnpCaFpHOTJaVzg9/

Vid 11-tiden idag kan du titta in för att lyssna och/eller delta i samtal om omtänksam digitalisering. Solskenshistorier, orosmoln, funderingar, tips, spaningar om allt som påverkar välbefinnande i normaliserad datorisering.

Det är också okej att ställa frågor om att köra sina egna ljudevent, hur man ska tänka och planera. Jag hjälper gärna det här formatet att växa.

Tips: Om man signat upp sig för ett event hittar man länken till det på sin profil i vänsterkolumnen (under grupper). - Jag skriver fortfarande på min guide men hoppas ha den klar senare idag.

Do you know who has written which book in #UX?

I went down a rabbit hole (close to literally) and discovered what type of output I can have generated from ChatGPT related to this topic. For example, which book has Jared Spool and Kim Goodwin authored together, according to this non-thinking machine.

https://axbom.com/ux-authors-wonderland/

Alice asked the CheshireChat, that was sitting in a PC in tree, “What road do I take?” The Chat asked, “Where do you want to go?” “I don’t know,” Alice answered. “Then,” said the Chat, “it really doesn’t matter, does it?" As we engage with our curious chats, it seems entirely apt to make the observation that too few are asking themselves where they want to go. And hence even fewer ask themselves if the Chat is the best guide when asking for directions.

@CassandraZeroCovid

I didn't realise I had. I have written many posts critiquing the danger of LLMs deployed in the way they are, and this is part of research that will be added to yet another post.

Sorry if I appeared trivializing.

@strypey

Thank you! I will fix asap.

@deadsuperhero

@strypey

Fixed now. Don't know how that happened, I'm usually very meticulous about this as my surname often gets a wrong spelling. 😅

Thanks again for pointing it out.

@givemefoxes

It's true. I've made a clip from that movie, with the quote, in the blog post I'm writing.

@cfiesler Exactly. I was aware it wasn't in the Alice book when I started asking but was blown away by where it ended up.

I'm using it in a blog post to make some of the points you brought up 😁

Ironically this quote I wanted to use in the intro became an example in itself of the original intent of the blog post. 🐇

@ChrisJKelly Thank you!!! 🙌

This was my first time down a "literal rabbit hole". 🐇

In a blog post about ChatGPT I wanted to use the quote "It would be so nice if something would make sense for a change.", attributed to the book Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carrol.

So – in doing my due diligence and being curious about its context – I've been downloading several editions of the book and have found nothing like this quote in any of them. One of the most famous quotes from the book doesn't seem to appear in it.

Which is so incredibly apt for a blog post about ChatGPT. Anyway I'm still on the hunt for where that quote actually appears (my guess is one of the many Alice movies).

To be continued.

And oh my. Of course it struck me to see what would happen if ChatGPT was used to find this quote from Alice in Wonderland. The tool proceeds to tell med which chapter the quote is in and quotes pages and pages from the book, without the quote. It takes me a number of prompts to help the tool respond that the quote is in fact not in the book...

Full convo here... you can scroll past all the quotes from the book and see my prompts and responses:
https://sharegpt.com/c/A0GXr6O

Wow have I been sidetracked here but the metaphor for what I'm writing about is just sp eerily spot on. Plus this is one of my favorite books... 😂 So of course it delivers.

I went as far as I could with ChatGPT trying to track down that Alice in Wonderland quote. It finally made up a passage in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and attributed it to Douglas Adams. Which of course is completely false. But the conversation is very apt for a bizarre rabbit hole wonderland experience.

Full transcript here:

So the post I was originally working on at the start of this thread, where Alice in Wonderland was intended to play only a small part, is now published.

Just a walkthrough of how easily I get books attributed to the wrong authors…

@LeoR1010 @m

Det här blev en intressant morgon. Sitter nu och testar webbläsare. Hade missat att DuckDuckGo ju har en egen också för Mac.

Bra insikt, tack. Just när det gäller webbläsare har jag svårt att hitta någon som inte är moraliskt korrupt på ett eller annat sätt. Rent krasst använder jag nog själv 3-4 olika webbläsare under en dag, ofta för olika syften...

men nu vågar jag nog knappt röra Brave igen.

@fyrfli Yes, it would appear populist homophobia has kept many politicians in power.

”By donning a second-hand hat, a 74-year-old man is about to become monarch of a small island kingdom”

As expected, the best reporting on today’s coronation comes from @thecontinent

While many mentioned atrocities are well-known, this part of erased African history is rarely talked about:

”While England has records of who lived in what village in 1068, its empire was quick to destroy the histories of those it colonised. These could then be overwritten with Protestant orthodoxy and white exceptionalism, banning things like queer love, once part of Africas cultural fabric.”

https://www.thecontinent.org/

#Coronation

Front page of The Continent with a caricature of Charles wearing a king’s crown and a royal jacket of medals. The adornments on his chest are labelled colonialism, slavery, divide and conquer, and religious intolerance.
Article: Time to turn that crown upside down

By donning a second-hand hat, a 74-year-old man is about to become monarch of a small island kingdom.

Sipho Kings in Europe

“You can shove your monarchy up your arse,” sang the supporters of Celtic football club in Glasgow last weekend. It is safe to say that there are few people in Scotland who will be obeying the official exhortation to swear “true allegiance” to their new head of state.

King Charles III is the newest head of an unelected family that has ruled the country and its empire for generations – term limits don’t apply here – and who built their wealth on empire, slavery, mass killings, weaponised rape and the calculated devastation of entire cultures.

British taxpayers will pay $130-million for the pleasure of watching his coronation which just 9% of them “care a great deal” about, according to the latest YouGov poll.

Over the centuries, the British royal family have made Africans – and other imperial subjects – pay a far higher price.

Not that it is easy to pin down the details. While England has records of who lived in what village in 1068, its empire was quick to destroy the histories of those it colonised. These could then be overwritten with Protestant orthodoxy and white exceptionalism, banning things like queer
love, once part of Africa’s cultural fabric.

It has worked hard to forget the details of its past. In Kenya, colonial officials burned 3.5-tonnes of documents that allegedly detailed atrocities by British forces. With their history overwritten, Africans are left rebuilding, and contesting the dominant, Western narrative of Africa as a self-inflicted basket case.

The family that drove this generational
injustice has held on to what it stole, refusing to acknowledge responsibility, or make things right. At this weekend’s coronation, far from hiding its sordid history, the family’s ill-gotten gains will take centre stage.

Charles and his wife will wear crowns with hundreds of precious stones plundered from around the world. The largest, the Star of Africa, is embedded in the royal sceptre, the symbol of his sovereignty over country and commonwealth. It’s the world’s largest diamond, a “gift” in 1905 from South Africa, which England had just conquered.

The blood of Africans flows deep behind the glitter of gold leaf.
