So all cross platform LinkedIn and Instagram creatives, how are we feeling about Cara? Have you already tried it out? Have you been using it before? How is it? Seeing tons of people on the gram moving over to Cara for all the AI changes their terms service, all of which creating a understandable migration (if you don't know what I am talking about, google it). I also understand you can opt out of that but not sure how good that system will play out- what are your thoughts? Seeing that we seem to be in the age of platform disruption, it leaves me wondering whats are people's plans. I know I am always slow to adopt a new social channel since tides are often changing lately so I want to know if you plan to use it, understand the vibes of the platform, and see whats up with overall moral. Are you leaving the gram, opting out, migrating, deleting all your posts, or are you business as ususal for the foreseeable future? Let me know!

https://lnkd.in/gxQuPdsH “Tech” is basically another way to say “propaganda platforms” now. I really want to see something else in tech. But it’s just a lot of this stupid stuff. I.e., “How can I make a platform to bring down society”? — “get my candidate into office”? “push my brand of propaganda?” “push my dictator ideas”? If we become a dictatorship, this would be how — allow free reign of propaganda in the name of free speech. OpenAI >> Twitter. In a word, we should want to see solution platforms, not propaganda platforms. #ai #tech #generativeai #largelanguagemodels #totalitarianism

Stay tuned as licensing deals unfold, setting the stage for what's to come. #GenAI #Licensing #IPProtection #GenerativeAI

In today's world, the free speech debate often overshadows a more alarming issue: the potential loss of our free will online. Our preferences and interactions on platforms like Amazon, Instagram, and TikTok are increasingly dictated by recommender engines. These systems curate content based on our past behavior, creating a feedback loop that can severely limit our choices and unduly influence our decisions. We risk becoming trapped in filter bubbles, surrendering our autonomy to opaque algorithms. While transparency around these systems is important, we must prioritize giving individuals true choice. Imagine a world where you could select or create your own recommendation engine from trusted sources - one aligned with your values and interests, free from manipulation. This would foster a more personalized, self-determined online experience. We cannot stand idle as our digital free will is eroded. It's time to advocate for a free market of recommendation systems to truly empower individuals and reclaim our autonomy in the digital realm. This post reflects on ideas raised by Jack Dorsey in his speech at the Oslo Freedom Forum on threats to digital autonomy. #AIethics #socialmedia #algorithm #Dataprivacy #cookies

Your opinions please? Choose a reaction to vote (since the poll option won’t let me share the article and have longer answers). Like: X is targeting these accounts at Musk’s direction. Support: Honest mistakes by an algorithm that needs improvement. Insightful: Right wing groups are targeting these accounts with enough complaints that they get autosuspended until a human can review the complaints. Funny: X’s AI is intended to recreate the mind and personality of Ayn Rand, and Ayn is not a fan of Kamala.

Why wouldn't huge companies that behave as described in this video also not do all they can to weaken a patent system that provides smaller competitors time and space to develop and launch innovative, potentially disruptive, new products? I continue to be amazed that policymakers and agencies on both sides of the Atlantic are not only failing to join the dots but are actually giving entrenched big beasts everything they want when it comes to IP. https://lnkd.in/eCUdFUcd

🧠 Algorithms - the unsung heroes of our digital world. They dictate our social media feeds, recommend products, and even drive our cars autonomously. But have you ever stopped to think about the ethics behind these invisible decision-makers? • To what extent should algorithms have control over our lives? • Are they truly unbiased, or do they amplify existing biases? • How can we ensure transparency and accountability in algorithmic decision-making? Algorithmic decision-making impacts everything from job applications to criminal justice. It's time we question the power and implications of these complex systems. Let's strive for algorithms that serve humanity ethically and responsibly. #OpenForBusiness www.Mysmi.io
