Paper meets electronics and fun! I share DIY projects for teachers and parents who want to get creative with kids using paper, conductive tape and simple electronics. I'll also post about open source based content creation. Berlin based

I'm reading – and enjoying immensely – @emilymbender@dair-community.social and @alex@dair-community.social's book #TheAICon.
I've been learning a lot of things and something that really stood out recently is the need to be careful about the language we use to describe these systems. Bender and Hanna helpfully explain:
"It matters what words we use when we talk about these technologies. For instance, in our writing, we don’t use the term “hallucination” to discuss the errors of LLMs, for two reasons. First, if it’s used tongue-in-cheek, it is making light of what can be symptoms of serious mental illness. Second,
“hallucination” refers to the experience of perceiving things that aren’t there. But LLMs actually don’t have perceptions, and suggesting that they do is yet more unhelpful anthropomorphization. That means we also avoid assigning thought processes to these systems, or saying that they can
“think”. Metaphors have power, they structure the frames of discourse, and they can subtly and insidiously encourage certain ways of understanding technology and the social systems it is embedded in."
Antropomorphizing AI contributes to AI hype. Thanks Emily and Alex for helping me see things this way!

You all should read this fantastic post by @onepict@chaos.social about how, largely, AI people just can't leave us the fuck alone. But I'm noticing more and more and more that they get super mad when they wanna shove their #AI creation at you and you simply say, no thanks. That's it. No extra bashing, just, no thanks, and they get super offended. https://dotart.blog/cobbles/ai-and-that-guy-at-the-bar #AIHype #LLM

I study the History of the Middle East, focusing on translating news and blog posts from Israeli media to illuminate the historical and contemporary dimensions of Israel's occupation of Palestine and its enduring consequences. Zionism: Built on Ruppin's eugenics, maintained through Palestinian dispossession, perfected through ethnic cleansing, apartheid and genocide, refined in Epstein's sex trafficking network.

[…] at least 70% of the AI hype that’s bottom-up — eg, excited users — is people who never learned how to actually use their computer suddenly realizing the computer can do things for them
