Yes it's the weekend and another video following the Ray Ban viral video. This however is a far more geeky video, as it demonstrates the ability of Google Chrome with it's super fast Javascript Engine (codename V8) to really show off.

You can also go and check these experiments out. Believe me though, not using Google Chrome, shows how good Google Chrome is. A clever way of showing how good Google Chrome is. And obvioulsy it shows up browsers like IE. Don't even dream of trying it with IE6, once again life would be so much better without IE6... No but seriously, don't try it with IE6; you'll either crash/freeze your computer, or spend 10 minutes clicking 'No' on the Javascript debugging Console.

The reliability & accuracy of GenAI

I question the reliability and accuracy of Generative AI (GenAI) in enterprise scenarios, particularly when faced with adversarial questions, highlighting that current Large Language Models (LLMs) may be data-rich but lack in reasoning and causality. I would call for a more balanced approach to AI adoption in cases of assisting users, requiring supervision, and the need for better LLM models that can be trusted, learn, and reason.

The imbalance of power in the AI game: in search of the common good

The article discusses the contrasting debate on how AI safety is and should be managed, its impact on technical debt, and its societal implications.
It notes the Center for AI Safety's call for a worldwide focus on the risks of AI, and Meredith Whittaker's criticism that such warnings preserve the status quo, strengthening tech giants' dominance. The piece also highlights AI's potential to decrease societal and technical debt by making software production cheaper, simpler, and resulting in far more innovation. It provides examples of cost-effective open-source models that perform well and emphasizes the rapid pace of AI innovation. Last, the article emphasises the need for adaptive legislation to match the pace of AI innovation, empowering suitable government entities for oversight, defining appropriate scopes for legislation and regulation, addressing ethical issues and biases in AI, and promoting public engagement in AI regulatory decisions.
