I'm looking for a new job, so if I say I'm a big fan of Trump, maybe he'll put me in charge of the U.S. nuclear program or something. Here's hoping. 
She is the 'safe person' for her nieces. Now she runs the Auntie Program for other Indigenous girls
Maxine Peigan created an eight-week program for young Indigenous girls to learn how to deal with social issues impacting their lives.

"it did not compare the A.I. with human performance" - as a #Maths #teacher it bugs me no end when they DO compare the #AI #Math with humans ("it would've passed!"). A.I. is a #computer #program. We already have computer programs that are 100% correct with Maths - hand-held calculators come with them! If you're comparing it to humans then you're admitting it is flawed when it comes to doing #Mathematics, not flawless like a Sharp calculator. It should be getting 100%!

“Beginning #programmers are often so eager to accomplish the first part of that definition—writing a #program to perform a certain #task—that they fail on the second part of the definition, meeting the stated #constraints.
I call a program like that, one that appears to produce correct results but breaks one or more of the stated rules, a #KobayashiMaru.”

I could also mount the encrypted partitions on the #HardDrive and to recreate the symbolic link which I’d deleted. Luckily this allowed my original system to start #Booting again. However, something was still wrong with sudo but looking it up, there was ample help online about what was wrong: the #program has to be #setuid 0 and so once I was able to do that I recovered the system. Phew.

#Trump #pauses #funding for #antiHIV #program that prevented 26 million #AIDS #deaths.
Nearly all global #health #funding from the #US has been halted immediately by the Trump administration — and that appears to include #PEPFAR, the widely praised program created by #President #GeorgeWBush in 2003 to prevent #HIV/#AIDS infections.
Georgia Public BroadcastingTrump pauses funding for anti-HIV program that prevented 26 million AIDS deathsOn Friday, a memorandum signed by Marco Rubio called for a 90-day cessation of foreign aid. That would likely put on hold the work of PEPFAR, the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief.
Back when I went to MATC, I created an #esolang called "Poetic". It was like #brainfuck , but the commands were encoded in the lengths of words.

But I have an #idea for a better esolang, which actually achieves what I wanted it to.

AI [probably referring to a LLM] is not trained by professionals or a single end user, because it requires such huge amounts of input training data...
You are correct and you are incorrect.
From scratch finding data for pattern matching is tough and requires high performance engines, trade-offs, and money. But we stand on the backs of giants.
There are trained ethical LLMs, certified to be so and deep pockets to back the assertion and the necessary curation. They are not necessarily free. From those seeds AIs can be built to do the things of which I speak.
If IBM can do it (and they do; having gone to the training and hard sell, I know), Apple Intelligence could be built and use Apple engines as infrastructure. Big Blue's giant Z mainframes, which are blades in pretty artwork boxed server racks, are performant due to their custom chips, virtual system management, tuned I/O structure, and multitasking software. Apple chips are performant, custom, and cheaper for the end user. Apple Intelligence is likely Apple's WatsonX App-Killer that'll make the difference, and most certainly runs on Apple hardware increasingly running on renewables.
My point isn't so much building LLMs from scratch, but applications built on a platform and then trained from private user data and via user curation. If I implied otherwise, I wasn't clear. Sorry.
I assume Apple's LLMs are ethical. I also assume that Apple is exposing AI APIs for use by developers.
