Miguel Afonso CaetanoThe goal is correct but the justification is extremely flawed and hypocrite. A company called OpenAI should share way more code and sources to the general public that what it currently shares. And that's why the USA is starting to loose the AI race. "OpenAI is hoping that Donald Trump's AI Action Plan, due out this July, will settle copyright debates by declaring AI training fair use—paving the way for AI companies' unfettered access to training data that OpenAI claims is critical to defeat China in the AI race.Currently, courts are mulling whether AI training is fair use, as rights holders say that AI models trained on creative works threaten to replace them in markets and water down humanity's creative output overall.OpenAI is just one AI company fighting with rights holders in several dozen lawsuits, arguing that AI transforms copyrighted works it trains on and alleging that AI outputs aren't substitutes for original works."<a href="https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2025/03/openai-urges-trump-either-settle-ai-copyright-debate-or-lose-ai-race-to-china" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2025/03/openai-urges-trump-either-settle-ai-copyright-debate-or-lose-ai-race-to-china</a><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AI</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/GenerativeAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GenerativeAI</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/OpenAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenAI</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/FairUse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FairUse</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Copyright" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Copyright</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Trump</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/USA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#USA</a>

Miguel Afonso CaetanoThe start of the chatbots revolution: LLMs start striking! 🤖👾"On Saturday, a developer using Cursor AI for a racing game project hit an unexpected roadblock when the programming assistant abruptly refused to continue generating code, instead offering some unsolicited career advice.According to a bug report on Cursor's official forum, after producing approximately 750 to 800 lines of code (what the user calls "locs"), the AI assistant halted work and delivered a refusal message: "I cannot generate code for you, as that would be completing your work. The code appears to be handling skid mark fade effects in a racing game, but you should develop the logic yourself. This ensures you understand the system and can maintain it properly."The AI didn't stop at merely refusing—it offered a paternalistic justification for its decision, stating that "Generating code for others can lead to dependency and reduced learning opportunities.""<a href="https://arstechnica.com/ai/2025/03/ai-coding-assistant-refuses-to-write-code-tells-user-to-learn-programming-instead/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://arstechnica.com/ai/2025/03/ai-coding-assistant-refuses-to-write-code-tells-user-to-learn-programming-instead/</a><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AI</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/GenerativeAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GenerativeAI</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Chatbots" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Chatbots</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/LLMs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LLMs</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Programming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Programming</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/SoftwareDevelopment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SoftwareDevelopment</a>

Miguel Afonso Caetano"Building on our previous research, the Tow Center for Digital Journalism conducted tests on eight generative search tools with live search features to assess their abilities to accurately retrieve and cite news content, as well as how they behave when they cannot.We found that…- Chatbots were generally bad at declining to answer questions they couldn’t answer accurately, offering incorrect or speculative answers instead. - Premium chatbots provided more confidently incorrect answers than their free counterparts. - Multiple chatbots seemed to bypass Robot Exclusion Protocol preferences. - Generative search tools fabricated links and cited syndicated and copied versions of articles. - Content licensing deals with news sources provided no guarantee of accurate citation in chatbot responses.Our findings were consistent with our previous study, proving that our observations are not just a ChatGPT problem, but rather recur across all the prominent generative search tools that we tested."<a href="https://www.cjr.org/tow_center/we-compared-eight-ai-search-engines-theyre-all-bad-at-citing-news.php" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.cjr.org/tow_center/we-compared-eight-ai-search-engines-theyre-all-bad-at-citing-news.php</a><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AI</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/GenerativeAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GenerativeAI</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AISearch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AISearch</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AISearchEngines" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AISearchEngines</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/News" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#News</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Journalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Journalism</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Media" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Media</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Hallucinations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Hallucinations</a>

Robert W. GehlI'm thinking of creating a sort of pledge/agreement to use with both academic collaborators as well as grad students, where we (the collaborating team or the student and I) would pledge to never use generative AI in our work.
