Ben ☀️shine<p>Warum gibt man soviel Geld (200k -400k) für so eine geringe Chance jemand vermeintlich im Schwimmbad zu erkennen aus? Es funktioniert nämlich nicht im Fluss oder See wos vlt. sinnvoll wäre. Ich verstehe es nicht.

Ben ☀️shine<p>Nein, das ist nicht KI generiert.

KI-generierte Zusammenfassung von Google führt zu Gerüchten:
Vor knapp einer Woche war unser Leitungswasser wegen einer mikrobiologischen Verschmutzung nicht trinkbar. Die Bevölkerung wurde dazu aufgerufen, das Wasser abzukochen.
Nun gehen in lokalen Chats Screenshots rum, die behaupten, es wären PFAS gewesen. Die Google KI-Zusammenfassung spinnt das wohl aus einem Zeitungsartikel zusammen, in dem nebenbei über vergangene PFAS-Verunreinigungen berichtet wurde

Always great to be back in #Zurich this time freezing with Paul Osswald's sculpture (depicting Eve after eating from the tree of knowledge) at the entrance of the main building of the university.

Coming from 35 degrees in Japan I must say: it is pleasantly cool for the planning meeting for our workshop week in September!

3-7 September 2025 Datakami will be in Zurich. Colleague Yorick will join #nixcon2025, and I have some time to visit generative AI startups in the region. Does anyone want to meet up and nerd about:
- favorite model (provider)
- best tracing framework
- evals
- synthetic data tricks
- worst outputs ever

»KI "Made in Switzerland" – Wie in der Schweiz an der Konkurrenz zu ChatGPT getüftelt wird:
Die ETHs in Zürich und Lausanne haben angekündigt, ein eigenes grosses Sprachmodell zu entwickeln. Es soll hohen Ansprüchen genügen.«

Da bin ich mal gespannt wie mensch es mit einem guten Gewissen nutzen kann.
