A German ISP tampered with their DNS – specifically to sabotage my website

My website: Publishing Germany's secret internet blocklist In Germany, we have the Clearingstelle Urheberrecht im Internet (CUII) - literally 'Copyright Clearinghouse for the Internet', a private organization that decides what websites to block, corporate interests rewriting our free internet. No judges, no transparency, just a bunch of ISPs and major copyright holders deciding what your eyes can see.

Writing with LLM is not a shame

Writing with LLM is not a shame. An essay about transparency on AI use. tl;dr: For people who are curious about AI, you rapidly detect people who are using it not correctly (for those who use AI “smartly” or correctly, it’s more complicated to detect it). I’m pretty sure you already saw tons of ai-written posts on social media. For me, I started to notice this in January 2024.

A Treasure Trove of Key Minerals Is Being Wasted in the U.S., Study Claims

gizmodo.com Tik Root 2025-11-10 23:00:10

The United States is home to dozens of active mines. Some extract copper, while others dig for iron. Whatever the resource, however, it usually makes up a small fraction of the rock pulled from the ground. The rest is typically ignored. Wasted. “We’re only producing a few commodities,” said Elizabeth Holley, a professor of mining engineering at the Colorado School of Mines. “The question is: What else is in those rocks?” The answer: a lot.

AI Isn't Human and We Need to Stop Treating It That Way, Says Microsoft AI CEO

Microsoft AI's CEO Mustafa Suleyman is clear: AI is not human and does not possess a truly human consciousness. But the warp-speed advancement of generative AI is making that harder and harder to recognize. The consequences are potentially disastrous, he wrote Tuesday in an essay on his personal blog. Suleyman's 4,600-word treatise is a timely reaction to a growing phenomenon of AI users ascribing human-like qualities of consciousness to AI tools. It's not an unreasonable reaction; it's human n

ChatGPT-5 Impressions: Fast, but a Bit Impersonal

ChatGPT-5 likes getting straight to the point. For some, that's a reprieve from its chattier predecessor, GPT-4o. For others, something will certainly seem off. Despite the hype leading up to OpenAI's launch of GPT-5, it ultimately doesn't feel too different from 4o. The quality of responses in my ongoing testing seems to be at the level of past models, including the o3 "reasoning" model. The major difference is that some responses generate very quickly in relatively few words, while others ca

Using AI for Work Could Land You on the Receiving End of a Nasty Lawsuit

futurism.com Unknown 2025-11-10 14:00:28

For all its hype, artificial intelligence isn't without its psychological, environmental, and even spiritual hazards. Perhaps the most pressing concern on an individual level, though, is that it puts users on the hook for a nearly infinite number of legal hazards — even at work, as it turns out. A recent breakdown by The Register highlights the legal dangers of AI use, especially in corporate settings.

Apple might release a cheaper MacBook soon, but you shouldn’t wait for it

Last month, we heard some news from analyst Ming-Chi Kuo about Apple entering a new segment of the laptop market. The company is reportedly working on a new MacBook at a lower starting price point than the MacBook Air, and it’ll apparently pack the A18 Pro chip found in iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max. While a cheaper MacBook is certainly a welcome add, the question truly stands: will Apple do it properly, or will it serve as another decoy model? Rumor refresh To quickly recap, the cheape

In Brief When Amazon hired the founders of AI startup Adept last year, it was one of the first examples of what became known as a reverse acquihire — a deal where a large company hires key startup team members and licenses its technology, rather than acquiring the startup outright. Adept’s co-founder and former CEO David Luan subsequently became the head of Amazon’s new AGI Lab, and while Luan’s recent interview with The Verge is ostensibly focused on Amazon’s vision for AI agents, reporter Al

AI Experts No Longer Saving for Retirement Because They Assume AI Will Kill Us All by Then

The meteoric rise of artificial intelligence has instilled an existential fear in "AI doomers," a subset of people who believe the tech will cause humans to lose their jobs, fall prey to a dominating species of rogue superintelligent AIs, and even eventually get wiped out altogether. And, as The Atlantic reports, some are taking that pervasive fear to striking extremes in their daily lives.

Political Pollsters Are Trying to Save Money by Polling AI Instead of Real People, and It’s Going About as Well as You’d Expect

As if the institution of political polling weren't already fraught enough, pollsters are now surveying AI instead of real people to cut costs and save time. As new research demonstrates, AI is clearly not up to the job — but that probably won't stop any firms who've bought in to continue doing so.
