So I was in Dagbladet today. Suffice it to say that the woman who sold me my copy did not recognise me from the microscopic photo just before the sports pages. The main headline was “De utleverer seg p nettet” (They deliver themselves/tell all/expose themselves on the net).

In 2022 I learned about FAIR data, the movement to make research data Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reproducible. One of UiB’s brilliant research librarians, Jenny Ostrup, patiently helped me make the dataset from the Machine Vision project FAIR in 2022 – I wrote a little bit about that in my […]
Thanks to everyone who came to the triple book talk of three recent books on machine vision by James Dobson, Jussi Parikka and me, and thanks for excellent questions. Several people have emailed to asked if we recorded it, and yes we did! Here you go! James and Jussi’s books […]
Finally I can share what I’ve been working on!

They find that the Chinese machine vision imaginary is global, blue and competitive. De Seta, Gabriele, and Anya Shchetvina. “Imagining Machine […]
Whenever I give talks about ChatGPT and LLMs, whether to ninth graders, businesses or journalists, I meet people who are hungry for information, who really want to understand this new technology. I’ve interpreted this as interest and a need to understand – but yesterday, Eirik Solheim said that every time […]

I had a look today when Dagbladet made it over the border. I think it’s great they’re taking an interest. Dagens Nyheter have recycled articles from the British press on blogging but I have’t seen anything mainstream here yet.

Oh, really? We’ve had several articles about blogging in mainstream press… You can read better stuff about blogs in blogs though. Obviously enough, I suppose.

Where I come from, the personal ads are on the pages before sport, and some of them have microscopic photos and headings like “They expose themselves on the net”… 😛

Hehe 🙂

You did, of course, see that the article is also in the online edition? On the web, nothing needs to be just before the sports pages 😉 No photo of you, though.
