    @n_dimension @SalemsLot @cstross @EUCommission dude, you have not looked at the European Innovation Council at all.

      Europe, the AI Continent.

      One year ago, we launched the AI Continent Action Plan. Since then, we have made huge strides:

      ✅ 19 AI factories are now live across EU countries.
      ✅ We established the AI Skills Academy to train experts.
      ✅ The AI Omnibus is cutting costs for business.
      ✅ We have earmarked €1 billion to support AI adoption in industry.

      We are building a secure and innovative AI future for Europe.

      Here's how 👉 https://link.europa.eu/nj3VH9

      @EUCommission Hoping that this bubble will finally burst - this can‘t be serious here. Going all in for something ruining the world these days? Countdown to extinction but hey, at least we‘re in Europe! 🎉

                @EUCommission La IA ya sé ha usado para decidir cuantos miles de niños mueren y cuantos no en guerras. ¿Ya se usa la IA europea para decidir objetivos militares o cuanto falta para eso? El uso en medicina e investigación de LLMs es algo minoritario, y hasta ahora las IA's han matado más personas que las que ha salvado. ¿Cuanta agua habéis robado al consumo humano para eso, a cuanta gente le habéis cuadruplicado el precio de la electricidad y el agua potable, a cuantas habéis dejado sin trabajo?

                    @EUCommission Read. The. Room.

                    A *lot* of the people on Mastodon are creators who have had their intellectual property stolen to feed the generative AI models, with at least one of the billionaires involved openly admitting/bragging that his business model would not be profitable if they had to pay fair royalties for that intellectual property.

                    A lot of people on Mastodon are deeply concerned about the environmental damage, AI hallucinations, theft of personal/corporate data, and sundry other issues.

                    There are forms of analytical AI that are useful (e.g. analysis of medical images) and do not involve any of the above. You do not appear to be referring to such analytical models.

                    For several years I have held back from publishing most of my writings and papers and algorithms due to this AI theft machine. I am holding out hope for the bubble to burst or for court rulings that favor creators who litigate over their IP being stolen by these evil tech lords.

                    AI hoovering has caused a massive chilling effect on my speech and code because once I put it out there the tech bros can steal it and deny me credit or payment, making it trivial for others to steal my work as well.

                      You will not find the tech useful if you do not use it.
                      Do you think there is a correlation there?

                      @n_dimension @cstross @EUCommission it’s only useful if you completely ignore the costs and harm associated with producing the models in the first place and even then the actual usecases are pretty rare and the measured productivity gains even rarer.

                        The image posted by OP is obvious elite transhumanist woo. It is a prime example of occult religious iconography.

                          @EUCommission here's a suggestion before spending a bazillion on "AI".

                          Make it (much) easier to start small businesses.

                          Like, €100 instead of €1000s, and a clearly defined list of paperwork, that can be processed at a single govt agency in under 1 hour, in 1 country.

                          Then, simplify the byzantine pan-EU tax arrangements so this small business can just pay tax once, instead of needing to spend €4000/year on accountant support, and filing in multiple countries.

                          And when you've achieved that marvel of bureaucratic enlightenment, by all means circle back and examine the detritus of whatever Yucatan-sized crater the US AI industry has imploded into, to see if anything of actual value can be forged from the slag.

                          The EU does not collect tax from citizens or businesses. That is up to the individual member states. Every member state has its own chamber of commerce and trade register. These are not centralised entities in the EU.

                            Bureaucrats ever want to feed everything (hence everyone) into their machine.

                                I remember the dotcom and big data bubbles. This is worse. They are trying to force all computing into the cloud so that your computer will be a mere kiosk and all your data on their servers.

                                  Or maybe an AI factory is a room where a bunch of people fire thousands of prompts every day and see what sticks?

                                  Like throwing faeces at a ceiling ventilator and then see where on the wall it ends up? Over and over and over again.

                                    @EUCommission 50 % error ratio, wasting energy and water, fake caring about human beings... Yeah,. I see you Europe, you really are AI.

                                    Non-producible prompts and unreliable output. Hallucinations are a feature, not a bug.

                                      Is our European AI supply chain clean or is it based on theft and extortion of humans and the environment like the others?

                                      AI is based on theft of creative works and intellectual property.

                                        @n_dimension @cstross @EUCommission it’s only useful if you completely ignore the costs and harm associated with producing the models in the first place and even then the actual usecases are pretty rare and the measured productivity gains even rarer.

                                        The costs and farms are stupendously overblown and conflated.
                                        There is bad faith on both sides of the argument

                                        The WAAAAH DATACENTRES mob conveniently ignores the current data centres ~50% of which are iclouds, AWS, dropbox, office365 and yes, mastodon, same issues, but oh these are the "good" data centres 🙄

                                        Also while growth projection are nasty...model distilation and algo improvement MAY reduce the load significantly. Tech improves. Have you tested the water pressure tank on your steam car?
                                        Its a safety issue.

                                        Placing AI Data centres in orbit removes the heat, carbon and energy issue, but forest folk aren't happy about that either (Not a big fan of that either but for different reasons than you)
                                        There is a small test inference engine up there already since December BTW.

                                        Copyright and artist exploitation?
                                        Oh yes, did you delete you pirated MP3 and MP4s? 🙄 Same folks who 4 years ago were chanting "Information wants to be free" are now guardians of corporate copyright.

                                        So, yeah.
                                        Ai is useful, x10 is real if you actually git gud.

                                          @EUCommission Read. The. Room.

                                          A *lot* of the people on Mastodon are creators who have had their intellectual property stolen to feed the generative AI models, with at least one of the billionaires involved openly admitting/bragging that his business model would not be profitable if they had to pay fair royalties for that intellectual property.

                                          A lot of people on Mastodon are deeply concerned about the environmental damage, AI hallucinations, theft of personal/corporate data, and sundry other issues.

                                          There are forms of analytical AI that are useful (e.g. analysis of medical images) and do not involve any of the above. You do not appear to be referring to such analytical models.

                                          @EUCommission This 💯. There is an enormous ethics deficit in the Generative "AI" sphere. I would encourage anyone to read something beyond the PR so heavily pushed by the "AI" companies. The damage and control being wilfully inflicted upon the world is real.
