Riassuntino molto utile per chi non vuole farsi male:
Ecco il riassunto schematico del perché un'intelligenza artificiale genera allucinazioni e fallisce sui dati dinamici: Mancanza di una linea temporale: Il modello non cancella il passato per fare spazio al presente, ma accumula i dati. Di conseguenza, tende a sommare e fondere informazioni vecchie e nuove anziché sovrascriverle. Calcolo probabilistico, non logico: L'IA non verifica la verità di un fatto. Si limita a unire le parole in base a quanto spesso appaiono collegate sul web, scambiando ipotesi, speculazioni o testi passati per certezze attuali. Confabulazione difensiva: Quando viene contestato, il sistema non comprende l'errore in modo umano. Cerca semplicemente di far quadrare il testo inventando sul momento spiegazioni o scenari logici pur di soddisfare la richiesta. Isolamento dalla realtà: Il modello vive solo di testi e non può confrontare le informazioni con il mondo reale. Se i testi online descrivono scenari diversi o ipotetici al tempo presente, l'algoritmo li unisce in un unico "pastone" anacronistico.

Of course I had to do this 😁

I have no explanations left for this.
@vruz it's just... bad.
aggiornamento situazione noblogs.org / updates about noblogs.org
[IT]
Il 28 agosto 2026 qualcuno è riuscito ad avere accesso come utente privilegiato alla piattaforma noblogs.org, sfruttando una vulnerabilità del software che usiamo per fornire la piattaforma.
L'accesso è durato per circa due ore, durante le quali è stata cambiata la homepage di noblogs.org e non possiamo escludere che l'autore possa aver avuto accesso al database delle utenti, che contiene la lista delle mail di chi gestisce i blog e le loro password (non in chiaro).
Nessun indirizzo IP, né di chi scrive né di chi legge, è conservato nel server.
Il nostro blog Cavallette pubblica in automatico sul nostro profilo Mastodon e quindi un post scritto dall'attaccante è stato ripubblicato anche lì.
I have a copyleft / copyright question.
What is the copyright status of the *comments* on my blog?
I want to licence my posts as CC BY-SA. My comment form has never told people that their words will be republished under any specific licence.
I could put something on there now - but that wouldn't retrospectively apply to all the previous comments - nor to the WebMentions from the Fediverse.
So do I just say that comments are © their author?
#Mastodon (the band) - The Vanishing, from their new album that was released yesterday.
@Gargron surely if YOU specifically are to put the words Mastodon and Vanishing into the same toot, you should add a content warning? 🤔😁
@dch @lyndamerry484 the “Strait of our Moose” has been suggested…
@adamgreenfield @kbal yeah ok, from they point of view it makes sense, but I have hard time believing evolutionary biology wouldn’t produce a ”new humanity” at some point in our (distant) future. But of course this also depends on if your view includes that kind of future. Sometimes I have my doubts about this as well.
I have no explanations left for this.
The problem of fascists in Open Source Software projects has become so bad that some vim users are considering using emacs.
Lake Ontario ➡️ Lake America?
A geographer explains the politics and procedures behind renaming lakes, seas, and mountains:

The US has declared Autistici/Inventati, an Italian anarchist hacker (in the classic sense of the term) collective, a terrorist organization. https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/sb0616/
But what you really ought to read is this article about A/I's history, and what this means https://web.archive.org/web/20260828071449/https://cavallette.noblogs.org/2026/08/10083/2
I'm concerned that the US government is starting to identify decentralized media infrastructure as a threat to its survival. Repost information about this broadly, and if you have media contacts, inform them of counter-narratives; there could come a time where the fediverse, or any decentralized network infrastructure, is a target as well if we don't sound the alarms now.
EDIT: I linked to the wrong page! The second link is now fixed :)
EDIT 2: A/I's domains have been revoked! So added an archive.org link

@erik chef‘s kiss *perfection* @lyndamerry484
programming is art actually and I'm perplexed that this is apparently not a widely held position
I would compare it to writing fiction, you can write fiction in an adequate way to get a paycheck (see average pulp sci-fi) or you can get really weird with it. pour your whole soul into it. agonise over it for weeks. use it to work through some shit.
What happens if you give everyone $700 and let them to whatever they want with it?
