Hearing AI regulation is in the air, especially with a misguided tone of “open dangerous, closed safe” so it felt timely to re-up this one. There are ways to make the AI industry safer without kneecapping transparency, education, and competition.

The Singapore-based startup says its AI-powered platform can halve graphic novel production time and cost. “This is not a self-driving car,” notes CEO Anumeha Bisaria. “It’s more like handing a Ferrari to someone who already knows how to drive.” buff.ly/YOXZgZY

1/Forget AI existential threat. This is far scarier. Jensen Huang lays out a dystopian future of computer outsourcing, human deskilling, and firm recklessness shrouded in the notion that these firms are unleashing an ayn randian paradise. Take a listen.

Yet another example of how AI can be useful *once you already have deep knowledge and experience in a field* whereas using it as a student actively prevents the acquisition of that knowledge.

Libraries have continued to test and use AI, according to the Pulse of the Library survey, but growth has decelerated. “There’s clearly a need to support libraries with practical guidelines or pathways for AI adoption,” said Clarivate SVP Oren Beit-Arie. buff.ly/rVUVTT1

🤖 My six year-old told me to say no to AI.

Was she right? And would prohibition of AI actually solve the issue or make things worse?

-Did the AI actually “go rogue,” or did a human tell it to do something?
-Does “AI decided” actually mean “a company decided”?
-Does the "study" make the claim in the headline?
-Did this happen spontaneously in the wild, or in an experiment specifically designed to make it happen?
