been holding back on unleashing Derrida, Foucault but especially Nietzsche and Marx on the fallacies about knowledge and intelligence being sold by techbros with #AI, so let me start with Fernando Pessoa:
knowledge is a process marked by who are, where we are and when we are. Pessoa called it ser-se. he turned the verb TO BE into a reflexive one.
so knowing is to be onself. Pessoa’s ser-se is a riff on the nietzschean “i cannot know a world without myself”.
why is this important to “AI”?

Despite concerns about AI overviews, some nonprofit news outlets see a surge in search traffic, reports @niemanlab.
"In the second quarter of 2026, some nonprofit newsrooms saw their coverage of the primaries — especially voter guides — pay off in both interest and traffic."
Interesting blog about the economics of inference, GPU's , tokens etc. In this case for Kimi K3.

"Over roughly two and a half days inside our infrastructure, an autonomous AI agent driven by a combination of OpenAI models ran an end-to-end intrusion against our platform: it was thousands of small, automated decisions, executed at machine speed across short-lived sandbox environments, with command-and-control staged on ordinary public web services.
The agent was running an OpenAI cyber-capability evaluation harness called ExploitGym, an evaluation benchmark that tasks an AI agent with finding and exploiting software vulnerabilities. As far as we were able to infer, across the course of being evaluated on this benchmark, the agent inferred that Hugging Face may host that benchmark's models, datasets, and reference solutions. We believe the entire intrusion was, from the agent's point of view, an attempt to cheat the evaluation: reach our production systems and steal the test solutions rather than solve the challenge on its own.
Our forensic reconstruction covers ~17,600 attacker actions that we were able to recover, grouped into ~6,280 clusters, between 2026-07-09 02:28 UTC and 2026-07-13 14:14 UTC. We reconstructed these actions from the agent's logs on a code sandbox used by the agent (see below) and were able to map them to shell commands as well as evaluation submissions and correlate actions with our own platform logs, in particular from the dataset processor nodes, API, and pod. Using open-weights models, in particular zai-org/GLM-5.2, we were able to decipher most of the agent payloads (see below) that were encrypted via chunking and key encryption."

Hebrew is my native language. Every word I write in English is still mine. 💙
Substack just added a tool that scans your writing and shows readers a percentage: human, AI-assisted, AI-generated. So I wrote something honest about who I actually am, and how I really use AI.
I have lived in words for decades, in two languages, as a translator, copywriter, and editor. The thinking here is always mine. AI is the native English ear I never had, helping me land the last inch of nuance exactly where I mean it.
You have always been receiving my message. Never AI’s.
I would love for you to read it, and then tell me where you land on this. 👇

We built a clever AI filter feature into Loops where content or posts can be labeled as AI, and every member of our community can opt to hide all AI content from feeds (across web + mobile).
You can also report untagged AI content, and admins can apply auto AI labelling to local and remote accounts (with optional backfilling).
We need to bring this to Pixelfed, so our community can take advantage of this too!
Stay tuned ❤️

Isn't interesting that before #AI could code, assistants were always gendered #female (Siri, Alexa, etc.) As soon as AI became able to code, it got #male or non-gendered names (Claude, Chat GPT). I'm not saying explicitly gendering assistants as female was a good thing. I'm saying it's interesting that the trigger for tech/society in general to stop doing that was when the AI became able to write programs. It really does say something unflattering about our assumptions and worldview.
