Die #CxU #Parteien wirken mittlerweile wie eine Symbiose aus der Partei und der #FDP. Immer wenn es Richtung #neu, #weltoffen und #modern gehen müsste, wiegeln sie es mit Sprech ab. Wenn sie die #Kapital-Kumpelz schützen und nach unten Treten müssen, bedienen sie sich bei den Gelben. Selbst hauptsächlich inhaltslos, von #christlich so weit entfernt, wie der Mond vom Kölner Dom und eigentlich nur noch als Alias für die dienend, die eigentlich Wählende wären. Weiß auch nicht mehr

Why AI Consulting Services Are Critical to Modern Enterprise Strategy

In today’s digital-first economy, artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer the stuff of a sci-fi film—it is among…

Okay, here it is. This is the unofficial official timeline of #AI. I'm going to tell you what to expect, and it's definitely not: this all goes away and we return to before.

Are you ready for this? Are you sure? Well, read on.

Before I continue, I'm going to lay out some AI #benchmarks that we'll use to define "how good / scary is this AI?" This is in rough order of difficulty.

#Lovelace #Test for #Emergence: "Can a system produce surprising and useful outputes that weren't explicitely programmed via weak emergence?"

#Loebner Test: "Can a computer fool casual human judges in text conversations?" ( #Modern #LLM AIs are close to this )

#Turing Test (Original Imitation Game): "A man or a computer and a woman are both answering text interrogations trying to convince them that they are the woman. Can the computer perform as well as the man?" (This was the actual orginial #TuringTest.)

Strengthened #Imitation Game: "A man or a #computer and a woman are both answering text interrogations. Can the computer perform as well as the woman?"

#Coffee Test: "Can a #system enter a strangers house with no prior infor and using #perception, imitation, and #reasoning figure out how to make a cup of coffee?"

#College #Student Test: "Can a robot enroll in college, attend classes like an actual student, learn from the instructions things it didn't know before, and graduate?"

#VoightKampff Test: "Can a machine withstand adversarial exper interrogation and still pass as #human?"

#Harnad's Total Turing Test: "Is the system indistinguishible from humans in every aspect?" (This is a #DuckTest.)

Non #Duck Test: "Even with full access to internals, can experts find no evidence that it isn't a genuine human mind?"

For context on the Ainu in modern Japan, Dubreuil offers a timely reassessment. Despite retaining citizenship post-1945 and being recognized as Indigenous in 2019 with consultation rights under UNDRIP Art. 19, the Ainu face systemic marginalization.

Modern Classics

The breaking down of old #western #imperialism has taken centuries.

The #modern world was formed in the promise of no more shifting borders - by the #UN - who then proceeded to ignore the existence of the #Palestinian and their land by way of the #colony known as #Isreal.

Being confronted with this fact, it seems prudent to say that if #Palestine gets destroyed, modernism would die with it. Why even care at that point? It's just words that have no meaning.
