If the currently existing generative AI technology had existed when Einstein presented his relativity theory, then all the generative AI models would most likely have dismissed his ideas.

When generative AI models are asked about their capabilities and limitations their answers are frequently inaccurate.
English
A generative AI model is most likely to answer a hard question correctly if the question is purely technical and the answer matches the relevant mainstream expert consensus. If the correct answer is unconventional, then the AI model's answer will most likely be wrong.
English
If the currently existing generative AI technology had existed in 2002, then all the generative AI models would most likely have claimed that attempting to develop reusable orbital class rocket boosters like SpaceX's Falcon 9 boosters would fail.
English
When asking a generative AI model a hard question its answer will often be strongly influenced by how the question is formulated.
English
The experts claiming that Tesla's Terafab project will fail sound like the experts who claimed that landing and reusing orbital rocket boosters were impossible.

The idea of Grok finding the highest-quality content is good, but hard to implement because Grok is currently not able to accurately assess the quality of many of the best posts on 𝕏. This is especially the case when the content is novel and unique, because then Grok can't find examples of similar content, the existence of which Grok generally uses as an indicator of quality as a form of social validation, instead of relying on assessment of the content's inherent quality, something which Grok often is bad at.

사실 𝕏가 Grok, 나아가 Optimus용 AI 모델을 트레이닝 시키는 용도서의 활용성을 극대화하기 위해서는, 지금의 퍼온 글들에 보상을 몰아주는 방식이 아니라 오리지널리티 있는 글을 올리는 사람에게 포상을 해주는 방식으로 가는 것이 좋다고 생각합니다. 그리고 Grok의 장점을 고려하면, 그 방식이 어려운 것도 아니라고 생각합니다.
Grok의 장점은 검색이니, 각 글의 내용을 Grok이 검토하고 웹 검색을 통해 다른 커뮤니티에 올라온 글을 퍼온 것인지, 아니면 다른데 없는 오리지널 글인지를 평가하면 됩니다. 이를 통해 속보성 글을 단독 보도하게끔 유도할 수 있고요.
그럼에도 불구하고 단순 “조회수”만을 바탕으로 가중치를 부여하여, 다른 커뮤니티에 몇 년 전부터 돌던 글을 단순히 퍼오는 사람들에게 보상을 몰아주는 시스템을 유지한다면, 타 AI 경쟁사들이 부러워하는, AI 모델 훈련에 활용학 좋은, 텍스트 기반 최신 속보 및 분석 SNS가 점차 망가질 수밖에 없다고 생각합니다. 😭

𝕏가 원래 이런곳인진 모르겠지만 트렌드의 원류나 정보의 원류라고 불리던 곳에서 이제는 타 플랫폼에 올라온 내용 가져다가 “~인데 ~하시나요?” 이런 댓글 유도로 어그로만 끄는 곳이 된거 같아서 아쉽다. 저런게 돈디 되고 반응을 끄니까 계속 이렇게되는거겠지.

It is the end of democracy if voter ID is not passed
Savanah Hernandez@Savsays
It’s cannot be understated how unfathomably cooked we are if we can’t even get basic voter ID laws passed in this country.

Schoolchildren Are Converting to Islam 'Out of Fear' in German Schools
Something is happening in German classrooms that the authorities have been slow to name. Christian children are converting to Islam, not out of conviction, but out of fear. More and more parents are turning to counselling centres, a state security officer told the German tabloid Bild, because their children want to convert simply to avoid being outsiders at school.
The pressure is not subtle. In cities like Berlin and Frankfurt, Muslim pupils now make up more than 80 per cent of the student body in some schools, the product of eight years of mass immigration from Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan. Many of these children come from strictly observant families, and they bring their expectations with them. Girls who dress in a westernised way or mix with boys are warned by male classmates to correct their behaviour. The security officer was direct: male Muslim students can appear threatening and sometimes violent in enforcing these norms. Parallel societies, he said, are emerging within the schools themselves.
A study by the Criminal Research Institute of Lower Saxony puts numbers to the ideology behind the pressure. Of the Muslim students surveyed, 67.8 per cent believe the Koran takes precedence over German law. Nearly half support Islamic theocracy as the best form of government. More than a third say they can understand violence against those who insult the Prophet. One in five believes the perceived threat to Islam from the West justifies Muslims defending themselves violently.
These are not the views of a fringe. They are the views of students sitting in German classrooms today. And the response of the non-Muslim children around them is entirely rational, which is what makes it so troubling. You conform, or you become a target. Some are choosing a third option: they convert.
Germany is not sleepwalking into this. It walked in with its eyes open and called it tolerance.

SpaceX will likely begin constructing a Dyson swarm in the near future. Among the possible uses of the collected energy could be AI and production of antimatter to use as fuel for interstellar travel.

@benjitaylor @xai In case your responsibilities include the Grok UI, it needs better feedback options. Currently Google's Gemini AI has a better UI for feedback.

We’re building the design dream team at 𝕏 and @xAI, and I’m actively hiring.
You’ll work on products at incredible scale, with people who care deeply about craft, speed, usability, and impact. You’ll be pushed hard, learn a ton, and do the best work of your career.
If that excites you, my DMs are open.

Este es el fin último de las organizaciones de “derechos humanos”.
Vean todo el caso, desde el inicio hasta el final que pretenden; cada uno de los pasos es parte de la “tutela de derechos humanos” conseguida con sus “luchas y conquistas”.
Jamás los escucharemos, no importa cuánto nos ataquen.
No tienen nada que venir a decirnos; más bien, nosotros deberíamos estar denunciándolos a ustedes por lo que le hacen a mujeres como Noelia.
El mundo necesita urgentemente liberarse de estas organizaciones, que no son más que los bufetes de abogados de los delincuentes, que prefieren LITERALMENTE matar a las víctimas en lugar de protegerlas.

He leído su historia y me parece una barbaridad que esto esté pasando en España. En 2022 sufrió una violación múltiple en un centro tutelado. Tras intentar quitarse la vida, quedó parapléjica. Ahora, el sistema le da luz verde para morir en vez de garantizarle apoyo, tratamiento y dignidad para vivir. En 24 horas, Noelia será la primera persona en recibir la eutanasia por depresión en España. Esto también es un fracaso colectivo.

I'm based in France, but 43% of my audience is American.
I know many of us are in the same situation. To reach a wider audience, all my posts are in English, the international language.
Those who cause trouble may be punished, but with this change, which will significantly reduce our earnings, you're also penalizing a number of accounts that use the international language without any ill intent.
X tells us that videos and new, high-quality content will be prioritized, but this change will, on the contrary, drastically reduce our earnings.
Is there any way to reverse this decision, please?🥺

Starting Thursday, we'll be updating our revenue sharing incentives to better reward the content we want on X: We will be giving more weight to impressions from your home region—to encourage content that resonates with people in your country, in neighboring countries and people who speak your language. While we appreciate everyone's opinion on American politics, we hope this will disincentivize gaming the attention of US or Japanese accounts and instead, drive diverse conversations on the platform. We invite creators to start building an audience locally. X will be a much richer community when there's relevant posts for people in all parts of the world.

@nikitabier While this change is well-meaning, it should also be possible to have global conversations.

There are some of us who primarily write about topics that concern all of humanity and therefore write in English to reach a global audience.

Software horror: litellm PyPI supply chain attack.
Simple `pip install litellm` was enough to exfiltrate SSH keys, AWS/GCP/Azure creds, Kubernetes configs, git credentials, env vars (all your API keys), shell history, crypto wallets, SSL private keys, CI/CD secrets, database passwords.
LiteLLM itself has 97 million downloads per month which is already terrible, but much worse, the contagion spreads to any project that depends on litellm. For example, if you did `pip install dspy` (which depended on litellm>=1.64.0), you'd also be pwnd. Same for any other large project that depended on litellm.
Afaict the poisoned version was up for only less than ~1 hour. The attack had a bug which led to its discovery - Callum McMahon was using an MCP plugin inside Cursor that pulled in litellm as a transitive dependency. When litellm 1.82.8 installed, their machine ran out of RAM and crashed. So if the attacker didn't vibe code this attack it could have been undetected for many days or weeks.
Supply chain attacks like this are basically the scariest thing imaginable in modern software. Every time you install any depedency you could be pulling in a poisoned package anywhere deep inside its entire depedency tree. This is especially risky with large projects that might have lots and lots of dependencies. The credentials that do get stolen in each attack can then be used to take over more accounts and compromise more packages.
Classical software engineering would have you believe that dependencies are good (we're building pyramids from bricks), but imo this has to be re-evaluated, and it's why I've been so growingly averse to them, preferring to use LLMs to "yoink" functionality when it's simple enough and possible.
Daniel Hnyk@hnykda
LiteLLM HAS BEEN COMPROMISED, DO NOT UPDATE. We just discovered that LiteLLM pypi release 1.82.8. It has been compromised, it contains litellm_init.pth with base64 encoded instructions to send all the credentials it can find to remote server + self-replicate. link below

@szilagyipal One of the many challenges for the EU leadership and bureaucrats seems to be their lack of awareness of how far behind the EU is relative to the global AI leaders.

Don't bother. They will sooner listen to an NGO financed by them in their echo chamber than to any of the actual European businesses employing European employees and selling to European businesses.
