EU Parliament Blocks AI Features Over Cyber, Privacy Fears

An anonymous reader shares a report: The European Parliament has disabled AI features on the work devices of lawmakers and their staff over cybersecurity and data protection concerns, according to an internal email seen by POLITICO.

The people who seem impossible to read aren’t guarded because they don’t trust you. They’re guarded because the last time they were fully transparent, someone used the information as a map to the exact place that would hurt the most.

People who seem emotionally unreadable aren't withholding because they don't trust you. They learned that full transparency gave someone a precise map to the place that would hurt the most, and their nervous system never forgot the lesson. Read more

ИИстерия — а есть ли она?

Чуть более двух лет назад я опубликовал здесь статью про восприятие IT-специалистами феномена нейросетей. Тогда моё «исследование» (не стоит убирать кавычки, это именно «исследование») базировалось на опыте психологического консультирования 30 представителей сферы, с которыми поднималась эта тема.

[Перевод] Долг понимания — скрытая цена кода, сгенерированного искусственным интеллектом

“Долг понимания” (comprehension debt) — это скрытая цена, которую человеческий интеллект и память платят в результате чрезмерной зависимости от ИИ и автоматизации. Для инженеров это особенно актуально в сфере разработки агентных систем.Когда команды активно используют инструменты для генерации кода с помощью ИИ, возникают определенные издержки, которые не отражаются в показателях производительности. Особенно это касается случаев, когда проверка всего кода, генерируемого ИИ, становится утомительной. Эти изде Read more

I grew up watching my father count change at the gas station and calculate exact grocery totals before reaching the register, and I make six figures now but I still do the math in my head at the checkout because that arithmetic was never about money. It was the sound of a man making sure his family never felt the moment he couldn’t provide.

The habit of doing mental arithmetic at the checkout doesn't fade when income rises — because it was never about money. It was a father's devotion running through the only channel he trusted: precision, control, and making sure his family never felt the moment the numbers almost didn't work. Read more
