My workflow with very long youtube videos i want to check, is making a transcript with Tactiq.io , add the transcript to a notebook in NotebookLM , read the overview documents and ask additional questions if necessary, works like a charm for those long videos. #notebookLM #youtube #AI

It's smart that Musk's DOGE is outside the federal government and not a real government organisation. No oversight, no ethics checks, just uncontrolled MAGA destructionism. The serious subject of government is being turned in a meme. Also don't forget in the shortterm Musk profits with his Doge coin (cryptocurrency). It's all about oligarchs and kleptocrats making money over the back of taxpayers. #DOGE #Musk #Trump #MAGA #government

Let op al de mensen met weinig verstand van overheid , openbaar bestuur en democratie, die gaan beweren dat Musk aan het hoofd van een herstructurerings/efficiency programma een goed idee is 😂 #musk #DOGE #trump

Trump is really trolling the military with his proposal for the new secretary of defense, totally unqualified, but who cares ? Russia and China are grabbing the pop corn. #trump #hegseth #defense #geopolitics

Trump is going to let a billionair with no experience and knowledge in government affairs restructure government, ofcourse he will also do anything to help his own companies. A disaster in the making. #musk #DOGE #trump

Nothing to get worried about, the top models at their current state are so good that they already can achieve great things. Especially when combined with other technologies and implementation techniques that limit their flaws. Also ofcourse literally billions are spend trying to prevent or circumvent limits for improvement. #ai #scaling

@npub1gc72...ech4 a suggestion for your excellent app, maybe automatically remove identical posts on Mastodon and Bluesky in my Openvibe timeline or change the header in posted on both, although I can imagine some challenges with combining feeds 🤔 #openvibe #mastodon #bluesky

Bang dat het debat in de Tweede Kamer morgen over de rellen in Amsterdam alleen maar een een podium wordt voor profilering, wat de polarisatie alleen maar gaat versterken. Wilders zal ongetwijfeld nog wat prikkelende uitspraken doen waarop andere partijen moeten reageren etc. #politiek

The @openvibe.bsky.social app on my iPad is as good or better then the original Bluesky app, also I can post on my Mastodon account at the same time. #mastodon #bluesky

Spotify has a free tier with regard to audiobooks , I listened to this book, recommended, although it doesn't make you happy. 🙄 Autocracy, Inc.: The Dictators Who Want to Run the World #autocracy #anneapplebaum #geopolitics @geopolitics group

I am wondering about Bluesky , Mastodon and Threads. After Mastodon I am now also trying Bluesky which "feels" nice , also the atmosphere is positive. But on a technical level I think Bluesky may be a dead end. When threads gets serious with federating/connecting to the Fediverse, together with Mastodon, Fediverse/activitypub will have more mass. Bluesky has chosen a different protocol sadly. Any thoughts or opinions? #fediverse #mastodon #activitypub #bluesky #socialmedia #threads

Ofcourse @npub15dwv...kg2d was right when he predicted that the top foundation models would encounter diminishing returns and could be in some ways in a dead-end street on the road to "AGI". However current models with current capabilities will still cause a big revolution/disruption. NotebookLM is a good example, that works on basis of Gemini 1.5, not the best model, still the implementation/application made the difference. #AI #garymarcus #LLM #GoogleGemini #NotebookLM #OpenAI

Meta already is aware of this but a moderately intelligent assistant inside WhatsApp could have an enormous impact, if you think about how broadly Whatsapp is used in various aspects of life by many people. 🤔 #ai #meta #agents #whatsapp

The stupidity of people who think we can agree with Putin about some kind of “lasting peace” in Ukraine and live happily ever after is breathtaking. Putin will never allow a sovereign and independent Ukraine with an army at it’s border. #geopolitics #ukraine #russia #putin @geopolitics group
