OpenAI and Anthropic are launching AI tools in health care, but their success may depend on transparency about reliability and accuracy, an issue that has already caused Google to fail in the sector. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2026/01/20/world/chatgpts-ai-health-care-push/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #worldnews #ai #chatgpt #anthropic #gemini #claude #openai #healthcare #medicine
Am I to understand from this that SearXNG is in the process of becoming AI poisoned?

curious if anyone else is #vibecoding for Google Apps Script. I run a nightclub, and my assistant quit in June; I basically replaced him coding automations with #claude into Google Docs, Sheets, Gmail…for example this web app / Gsheets app that aggregates tickets from all the ticket platforms we’re on

A thought that popped into my head when I woke up at 4 am and couldn’t get back to sleep…
Imagine that AI/LLM tools were being marketed to workers as a way to do the same work more quickly and work fewer hours without telling their employers.
“Use ChatGPT to write your TPS reports, go home at lunchtime. Spend more time with your kids!” “Use Claude to write your code, turn 60-hour weeks into four-day weekends!” “Collect two paychecks by using AI! You can hold two jobs without the boss knowing the difference!”
Imagine if AI/LLM tools were not shareholder catnip, but a grassroots movement of tooling that workers were sharing with each other to work less. Same quality of output, but instead of being pushed top-down, being adopted to empower people to work less and “cheat” employers.
Imagine if unions were arguing for the right of workers to use LLMs as labor saving devices, instead of trying to protect members from their damage.
CEOs would be screaming bloody murder. There’d be an overnight industry in AI-detection tools and immediate bans on AI in the workplace. Instead of Microsoft CoPilot 365, Satya would be out promoting Microsoft SlopGuard - add ons that detect LLM tools running on Windows and prevent AI scrapers from harvesting your company’s valuable content for training.
The media would be running horror stories about the terrible trend of workers getting the same pay for working less, and the awful quality of LLM output. Maybe they’d still call them “hallucinations,” but it’d be in the terrified tone of 80s anti-drug PSAs.
What I’m trying to say in my sleep-deprived state is that you shouldn’t ignore the intent and ill effects of these tools. If they were good for you, shareholders would hate them.
You should understand that they’re anti-worker and anti-human. TPTB would be fighting them tooth and nail if their benefits were reversed. It doesn’t matter how good they get, or how interesting they are: the ultimate purpose of the industry behind them is to create less demand for labor and aggregate more wealth in fewer hands.
Unless you happen to be in a very very small club of ultra-wealthy tech bros, they’re not for you, they’re against you. #AI #LLMs #claude #chatgpt

A popular TikTok channel featuring an "Aboriginal man" presenting animal facts has been exposed as an AI forgery.
AI is Iggy Azalea on an industrial scale:
"The self-described “Bush Legend” on TikTok, Facebook and Instagram is growing in popularity.
"These short and sharp videos feature an Aboriginal man – sometimes painted up in ochre, other times in an all khaki outfit – as he introduces different native animals and facts about them.
...
"But the Bush Legend isn’t real. He is generated by artificial intelligence (AI).
"This is a part of a growing influx of AI being utilised to represent Indigenous peoples, knowledges and cultures with no community accountability or relationships with Indigenous peoples. It forms a new type of cultural appropriation, one that Indigenous peoples are increasingly concerned about."
...
"We are seeing the rise of an AI Blakface that is utilised with ease thanks to the availability and prevalence of AI.
"Non-Indigenous people and entities are able to create Indigenous personas through AI, often grounded in stereotypical representations that both amalgamate and appropriate cultures."
