@GossiTheDog yes, please. I think the most likely meetings you will hit are politicians or IT security companies.

@christopherkunz lieber Christopher, Du hast Politik in Deutschland nicht verstanden. Es geht ums Reden und Ankündigen, aber doch nicht ums Tun. Wer was tut kann andere verärgern und wird abgewählt.

@heidilifeldman I just heard that they were standing outside of military bases and waited for the relatives of some of the soldiers. Particularly when they finished their first education and celebrated that with their family.

I mostly use local AI. The new models are really good and for my needs sufficient.
I have never paid for Claude, chatgpt or Gemini or used their apps or used them on their own websites.
If I have the need to use a bigger model (which gets less and less) I use Venice.ai. I would donate to them anyhow because they have privacy in mind. And they offer a wide variety of models to choose from.
When people tell me how dumb AI is, I asked them how they engineered the prompt. In 98% of the cases they have no clue what I mean because they use the models as Google Search.

@kasperd@westergaard.social @n_dimension@infosec.exchange @AlSweigart@mastodon.social in my AI classes I usually start with this:
I dont need AI.
If I have no clue, I can’t use AI because I am not sure it is lying. If I know the topic, I dont need AI anyway.

@ozzelot @SnoopJ @AlSweigart once a doctor told me I have to give up drinking, cigarettes and too much meat.
I never drank, never smoked and was vegetarian.
Now I am prepared for the next doctors visit to oblige to his request

@helenasteinhaus ich war 2019 in San Francisco. Dort gab es einen interessanten Artikel oder im Radio, weiss nicht mehr.
Sie hatten so viele Millionäre wie noch nie, alle wirtschaftlichen Kennzahlen positiv. Bis auf eine.
Sie hatten noch nie so viele Obdachlose.
Ich habe Zeltstädte gesehen, in einer unfassbar reichen Stadt.
Das hat mich geschockt.
Ähnliches dann auf Hawaii…

Before you even clicked, you reject all the data tracking and collection, #meta and #tiktok collect a lot of #PII.
This violates GDPR and still they use it extensively on shopping sites in France and Germany. The shops often are not aware what data these pixels collect.
"Social media companies are weaponizing ad tracking pixels to collect extensive personal information about users when they visit advertisers' websites, even if those users expressly request that those sites do not share their data, researchers are warning."
The Pixel, just to be clear, is not a dot on your screen only. It's a JavaScript which collects everything you do when you shop: your credit card, your delivery address, etc.

@Tutanota @protonprivacy why don't you create some automatism, how to migrate from proton to you? I sure can do a lot of things manually, but something which supports me would be beneficial because I'm not a techie.

@Tutanota @protonprivacy I think Google, Apple and all others believe in the power of open source as well and particularly companies like Microsoft or Amazon who profit from open source hugely.
To believe in the power of open source does not mean that you do open source.
