iNaturalist Google deak backlash is a war against big tech and AI

If you don’t know the zombie ant mushroom yet, let me enlighten you. Stubborn page This insect-spatiogenic fungus species explains that a particular ant species enters into the brain and changes its behavior. The ants then leave their nests, look for a warm, damp place for fungal growth, and then use mandible to tie themselves to a large vessel at the bottom of a leaf where the landlord stays after the final death ”.
In my opinion, I think that productive machine learning software is an appropriate analogy for how it spreads itself by kidnapping the minds of rational individuals, sacrificing themselves to spread themselves to the next main information.
Educators, academic institutions, media organizations, governments and government employees, lawyers, studio executives – it is not difficult to voluntarily find the brains of each of them to help the slop machine further progress.
As I wrote here before CriraseIt is very sad to see the institutions in charge of protecting volunteering to bury a program based on evidence -based, which cannot provide accurate or correct answers, and it is 10 times worse to see that some of my friends and colleagues in the climate movement do the same thing. Helping a climate -breaking lie machine feels like the opposite of everything we fight.
But recently, we have seen a different game in the future. Last week, deeply popular stubbornly, a collective wikipedia style effort to identify different species of different living things in the world, announced A partnership Google Applying a productive language model that will present “explanations özgün that some species are classified in certain ways, in certain ways.
. announcement It was 782 words, then it was a tense explanation of 731 words – and it contained 48,320 words in just 24 hours before comments on the page closed Because the websites were not really designed to deal with much response and caused problems.
Compare the incredible intensity of the hepn with the announcement of the stubbornness of another recipient in the same financing round: “AI Australia Day”And New South Galler University, both of which is celebrated by Google” to create new Genei tools for students and teachers “. Google Australia said,” The new generation is proud to support their efforts not only to understand AI, but also to prepare their efforts to actively use it for a positive change. ”
There was no reaction to this announcement, but also in the media at all. Other financing includes the provision of medical advice from C-12, a “AI Teacher”, mental health provider training, educational nurses and midwives, and chatbot-based medical advice in Kenya.
There is extremely clear indicators The serious cognitive effects of relying on a chat boat to replace critical thinking, research and reading skills are unreliable as well as their outputs, as well as being unreliable, rather than the result of careful research and reasoning. All of the deep, uncontrolled spread of productive systems in education, medicine and academy should cause much more alarming rather than automatically created explanations of insect classifications.
Some of this can be explained by flock behavior. A new IBM questionnaire The managers found that “64% of the CEOs participating in the survey accepted to invest in some technologies because they invest in some technologies despite the same work despite the same work that demonstrated a high failure rate of the adoption of productive software.
The other part of the reason why this problem is so widespread, but deprived of serious opposition in most of the worst situations, is that there is too much money to do so. The nightmare of coats, locked wreck -cost mistakes.
A global fossil gas supply chain players (supply, processing, transportation and gas turbine production) network, the network in the near future is largely investing in the new capacity on the assumption of electricity demand. The collection of major technology companies and data center operators such as Google sinks billions of billions of data centers on the assumption of demand for productive text, image and video in the near future. And the end users of the productive software-business, institutions and individuals-aimed at adopting a fomen that this technology only feels but cannot really explain.
It is as difficult to displace the toxic effects of an industry that decides to encourage the demand for itself in society. Disposable food and beverage packaging brain Plastic industry. Large Size Four Wheel Drivers increased Global oil demands serious high levels. And you cannot turn off the productive “AI” chat boat in your messaging application, which you continue to accidentally activate it.
When it comes to fighting against these tendencies, I am next to the dismissal of responsibility or resistance at a personal level. All of these are very structurally and most are directed by directing the predatory feast in pre -existing social problems (such as inadequate financing of disaster in education and health services or long -standing erosion of information areas). Try to do your weekly store without releasing, without buying a plastic: close to the impossible.
However, stubborn epic reveals something important: it has some effects when the intense group response is used in the correct context. It makes sense to see that resistance emerges in communities that are most dependent on open collective action and meticulous, scientific real control. Recently Wikipedia’s editors He rose and objected loudly For example, the plan to include the summaries of articles produced by the machine.
Even the host, which is determined for the zombie ant mushroom, seems to have developed adaptable behaviors that can limit the contact rate between infected sensitive mansions and infected hosts, thus reducing the risk of transmission.
There are too many zombies -like acquaintances to the cruel and toxic pacts offered by Big Tech. But if we want to increase resistance to abrasive technology, let’s look at the communities that make it incredibly good (don’t just break it Crirase Website with your comments).
