The inimitable @nprofile…ugpy is in Australia, speaking at The Wheeler Centre and the Festival of Dangerous Ideas - and his interview with Rhiannon Stevens for Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) is - as usual - right on the money.
His views on the growing hashtag#AI bubble are prescient, as he points to the commodification of models through open weight approaches such as those used by DeepSeek and Kimi, and what this means for current stock markets:
"So, we're going to have these models. We're going to make them run far more efficiently. We'll make incremental improvements to them. And we're not going to use it for so many frivolous and pointless things that are heavily subsidised that we need new chips every year. And it'll just become a normal technology. And if we're not careful when a third of the stock market is vaporised, when the Magnificent Seven, who are 35 per cent of the S&P 500 are all losing money on AI, when they burst. If we're not careful, we'll do austerity again."
This isn't inevitable. We still have the power to change how this technology evolves and matures - and to ensure that it doesn't leave a trail of financial, environmental and psychological devastation in its wake.

Could we please go back to the version of the internet patched together by chewing gum and goodwill;
the domain of the well-meaning, Aloha shirt-clad, neck-bearded hippie;
the time of the lady poet-engineer who wrote spanning tree protocols and prose to match them;
where the only thing you had to do to connect to other humans was to be "capable of sending and receiving packets";
where we share spare GPU cycles to search for extra-terrestrial life or to run HPC workloads for curing cancer;
where the internet was wild and unstructured and embryonic and so full of potential and life and --- I'm not sure - vectors? paths? possibilities?
At which fork or trunk or change did the current slop-enshitti-net emerge?

I've been catching up on some videos from #39C3 - and this has to be one of my favourites - @nprofile…wr8h talking "All Sorted by Machines of Loving Grace" where she draws a through-line from fascism to cybernetics to cyber-libertarianism to the anti-fascist TESCREAL movement spear-headed by Torres and Gebru.
Her message is clear: be anti-fascist, and build collectives of anti-fascism. Fascism, she articulates, is perpetrated by fascists - not queers, not anarchists, not left-wing militants. Fascism is what fascists do.
And anti-fascism means not supporting fascists.

"I'm sorry, Professor, but unfortunately you haven't met your monthly KPIs for three months, and the rejection from NeurIPS was the deciding factor. Our Corporate UNattaching Teams will be in touch soon with next steps."
She sighed, more resignation than shame.
---
It started before the decimation of science in '25. Academic publishing had corporatised long before that; journals were a cash cow built on free labour - from writers and editors.
When the Institutes lost funding in '25, universities were forced to rely on their endowments. The Ivy Leagues survived a few years - but by the early 30s, when Trump was in his third term, they too were broke.
And the Journal-AI Conglomerates stepped in.
Wiley-Taylor-Francis-Anthropic, Elsevier-Springer-Gemini, SAGE-OpenAI.
The journals had each merged with key generative AI companies in the late 20s. The prevalence of AI slop and the Token Crisis meant that there no more human-created tokens to feed the LLMs ... except those in paywalled journals.
The AI companies got their tokens, and the journals got their token lucre. It was a match made in hell.
This was all by design, of course.
---
"So, tell me how your new h-index v2 works, and how my h-index v2 means that I don't meet my KPIs?"
"Ah, Professor, we've changed our ranking algorithm, and it no longer weights the h-index v2 as heavily. It's much more focused on how many words are written and published."
"So you can harvest them for tokens?"
Her interlocuter cleared his throat. She wasn't sure it was a "he" specifically - the voice AIs were now indistinguishable from humans, but she suspected he was a fallible meat sack.
---
Each of the Journal-AI conglomerates started to buy up universities - like the health insurers had done in the 2010s and 2020s - forcing up the price of degrees and adding barriers to academic publishing.
They'd brought pressure to bear on the US government - it had been easier than they thought - to ban Open Access - casting it as a tariff on US-grown research.
Then they simply enshittified.
Academics were given publishing KPIs - essentially told to create research as a front for generating human tokens, to be fed into ever-larger LLMs.
Great research was no longer the point - tokens were.

Today is brought to you by the letter Coffee ☕ because I accidentally stayed up late listening to Sarah Wynn-Williams' memoir, #CarelessPeople, while #knitting, because I wanted to see whether it was hype or whether it had substance.
It's not brilliantly written - but it's authentic, poignant, and tells a story of a young, hard-working idealist whose perspectives on power, privilege and influence are deeply altered by her experience at Facebook.

## Dilemmas: a microfiction
Bessie the Corgi sat rampant on the floorboards, warm bright eyes fixed on mine as I faced the door - her lead dangled from the hook on the back.
Almost imperceptibly, I raised an eyebrow.
*Almost* imperceptibly.
She rose to all fours as quickly as her eight year old stubs would allow - less spring than in her youth - but buoyed by expectation.
"WOOF WOOF WOOF WOOF WOOF WOOF!"
Typical Corgi, more bark than a forest. Who needs eardrums anyway?
"Come on then Bess, WALKIES!"
"WOOF WOOF WOOF -- ",
bound, bound, bound bound, waggle, waggle, sit for the lead, waggle, waggle, waggle
" -- WOOF WOOF AROOOO!"
"Who's a good girl? You're a good girl! OK, off we go!"

It had taken a while to get back into a routine after the cancer. Massive surgery, chemo, more surgery. But I was still here - and by all estimates would probably be around for a while.
I had thought something was vaguely wrong - just off, nothing I could put my finger on. Tired, an aching heaviness on that side. Nothing to go to a _doctor_ about.
But Bess wouldn't keep her snout out of my armpit. Every time we sat on the floor to play tug o' war, or fetch, she'd come in for a cuddle, then slide her long nose gently up my side, tapping up into my armpit. Nudge, nudge, nudge, gentle then harder.
Just on that side.
"Bess, whatcha telling me?"
She tilted her head to the side - not hearing any food or perambulation-related words.
That day I made an appointment with the doctor.
---
We were ambling back from the doggy park, Bess off-leash - against regs, but she was traffic smart and had good recall - when I spotted him and his wife, each with a kid in tow.
"Let it go. Let it go. Let it go - ", I self-soothed.
"He made a choice, it was his prerogative."
My therapist would have been so proud.
I fixed a neutral, wan smile on my face and veered to the left of the footpath. Crossing the road would just be juvenile, but, shamefully, I considered it.
He made direct eye contact.
I refused to look away. Deal with my anger, you arsehole.
Bess stiffened, sensing the tension.
"DOGGGGIIIIIEEEE!!!!", squealed one of kids, head full of ringlets and grabby hands intent on patting the doggggiiieeee.
Bess was having none of this shit.
Lip curled, she growled at the toddler, gutteral, low, but Very Audible.
"MUMMMMYYYYY the DOGGGIIIEEEEEEEE WAAAAAHHHH AAAAH"
Excitement turned to bewilderment, then tears, as Ringlet McGrabby Hands broke stride as the cuddly doggie suddenly became Growly Scary Teeth Monster.
"Bess, heel!", I commanded.
She obeyed, petulantly, but she obeyed, sitting at my feet.

Excellent Sunday afternoon read from Professor @nprofile…kl70 for Noema Magazine that takes a look at the metaphors we use to distinguish between organic and non-organic beings and challenges some of the assumptions around what we consider to be machines and/or living things.
Very much in the style of Donna Haraway, he advocates at once for #pragmatism, for empirically testing the methods we use for interrogating systems that imbricate the organic and the machine and to keep an open mind when categorising which is which.

I lost my beloved @nprofile…zph6 in September - it was his time, he was very unwell and he outlasted all expectations. I gave him a kind and painless crossing.
There were all the usual pieces of grief - his collar, which I haven't got around to cleaning and memorialising. Cleaning out his doggy toys. Vacuuming Under The Dining Room Table, which was His Space. Planting things in the gardening minus his generous and frequent deposits. Meeting Rosalie, my neighbour from Glasgow, whose house we would pass on increasingly short walkies, sans corgi and her saying "no more doggie?". No more doggie.
But it's hit me that he won't have any presents at Christmas - he was a family member and got his own presents. No more squeaky toys or deliciously stinky dried sausages or balls that lit up and zipped across the floor. No more fluffy corgi under the dining room table, waiting for some Christmas dinner leftovers. No more belly-full corgi snoring like a freight train.
No more doggie.

The Mozilla #CommonVoice #dataset v20 was released yesterday - the largest open #speech dataset in the world. My #dataviz, linked below, shows a continuation of patterns seen for some years now:
➡️ There's more data collected for #Catalan (ca) than for #English (en) - testament to the independence and language reclamation efforts in Catalunya. Language and cultural transmission are deeply intertwined.
➡️ Some of the newer #languages to Common Voice, like #Ligurian / #Genoese (lij) have contributions from mostly older speakers, which is unusual in comparison to the rest of the dataset. This may reflect the population that currently speak those languages - as many regional languages in Italy are in rapid decline.
➡️ Some languages such as Eastern Mari / Meadow Mari (mhr) - a #Uralic language spoken in the Mari-El Republic within Russia - have samples from predominantly female-identifying speakers, again contrasting to the rest of the dataset. Other languages here include #Cantonese (yue), #Georgian (ka), and #Kalenjin (kln).
➡️ A key part in the preparation of the Common Voice dataset is the validation of utterances to assure they match their written transcription - which requires at least two validations by separate speakers. Some newer languages to Common Voice, such as Erzya (myv) and Moksha (mdf), both Uralic languages, have nearly 100% validation.
What are your interpretations of the dataset?
