Thinking of introducing DuckDuckGo AI CLI into my minimalist bashcore CLI distros 🐧

​I know, adding cloud AI to a sec-focused distro is controversial. But thanks to DDG's proxy, IP addresses are stripped for maximum privacy.

​"That's one small step for a dev, one giant leap for CLI-kind"? 🌕🚀

​What do my fellow linux friends think about this big step? Worth it?

Tweet by OpenAI: Sol is our new flagship and a step function better than GPT-5.5. Terra delivers performance competitive to GPT-5.5 at 2x lower cost. Luna is our most cost-efficient model, delivering strong capability at our lowest cost. Together, the GPT-5.6 family gives people and developers more choice in how they balance intelligence, speed, and cost.

As so often what once happened in a Philip K Dick book (in this case Minority Report) has now come to pass... here are Liberty's investigative journalist team on the worrying & expanding experience of predictive policing, and how it produces a large number of false positives when trying to predict criminality.

Once that has been compounded through police prejudice & bad culture, this looks not just unwelcome but positively dangerous!

“For most of history, surveillance ran into the same wall: payroll. A Soviet censor could open your letter. He could not open everyone’s letter, because steaming envelopes takes hands and there were never enough hands. The Stasi got closest, running files on a share of the East German population large enough that historians still argue the exact fraction, and it took warehouses of paper and a network of informants the size of an army to do it. The ceiling was human. Reading you cost a person a day, and a person’s day costs money.”

“What protected the ordinary person was the price of attention. You were boring, and boring was expensive to read.”

“AI removed the ceiling. A model reads every message at a cost rounding to zero, sorts them, flags the interesting ones, and never asks for a raise. The thing that made mass reading impossible was arithmetic, and the arithmetic just inverted. Two variables remain: who holds the data, and what they say when the state asks.”

* Post bubble, what do AI workflows actually look like, 5 or 10 years from now?

One particularly bizarre facet of business's current fixation with #ai is how it ignores everything they know about pricing.

Almost any human, and some gifted species of trout, can see it's in "loss leader" mode. Fine, exploit the below-cost pricing now, but don't hollow out your organization and become dependent until you've seen the final price card.

It smacks of watching a co-worker roll up in a new $1200 per month car, despite his $30k salary, because "hey, no payments til September!"

I stopped by Best Buy and bought this external Seagate 24TB drive for $279.99 and thought to myself at the register while paying for it, "Damn, this is expensive."

I just looked and the same drive at Best Buy is now $709.99 (and that's the sale price after a $50 discount!). The sale price is a whopping 153.6% increase in just six months!

This is insane. Thanks #AI techbros for making everything tech more expensive.

So there is value in oral examination (literally oral).

At Stanford University:
«Some classes have started reintroducing proctoring - the supervision of candidates during an examination - and spoken-word tests to avoid cheating, [Lucy Zimmerman, a computer science major who served as a teaching assistant] said.»

This is, of course, a detail of a much bigger picture.

“META LEFT POTENTIALLY sensitive information collected from employee laptops accessible to anyone inside the company, according to an internal security notice seen by WIRED and three current employees familiar with the issue.

The data, which was collected as part of a divisive initiative to train artificial intelligence models, is believed to include keystrokes, mouseclicks, and content displayed on the computer screens of Meta’s US employees.

Meta spokesperson Tracy Clayton initially confirmed to WIRED that the company is investigating the security issue. As this story was being published, he added that Meta is pausing the data collection program indefinitely. "We have carefully designed this program with privacy safeguards and while we have no indication at this time that any data was improperly accessed by Meta employees, we're pausing it while we investigate," Clayton says.

The security notice sent out Monday indicated that “employee data across 45,000 hive tables,” had been exposed. Those tables included employee activity such as “full prompts and transcriptions, private conversations, people and performance data,” according to documents viewed by WIRED.“
