At last week’s AI STORIES workshop, Gabriele de Seta led a workshop exploring Butterflies.ai, a social media platform where all the users are AIs. Gathering a group of researchers in a room for a few hours to explore and discuss a specific genAI platform turns out to be a really […]
When I studied literature we mostly read the classics. Great literature, the canon. But that’s not necessarily what most people actually read. What if instead of comparing AI-generated literature to the literary canon, we tried comparing it to super popular and commercial forms of literature instead? Like the folkebøker that […]
Synthetic media is a current popular term for AI-generated videos, texts and images. I think the first use was only a few years ago in 2018, but I couldn’t find an overview of its use so thought I’d cobble one together here, mostly because I like Elena Pilipets and her […]
OpenAI plans to charge $20,000 (USD) a month for an AI agent that can do “PhD level research”. Maybe all the PhDs and postdocs recently fired by DOGE should band together and sell their services as “AI agents” – apparently some people will pay more for robots than people. At […]
This is my original Norwegian draft of an essay published in the Danish foreign policy magazine Udenrigs today as part of a special issue on AI and foreign policy. I argue that AI is influencing the way we tell stories, and more seriously, that there is a risk of this […]
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 […]

Go out and tell it to the peopleĂ–.
Have a nice stay, itĂs a beautiful city.
I hope you will be back tomorrow for our coffee-chat.

Oh, I’m back already, Henning, and looking forward to another chat about blogs 🙂 Didn’t see much of Trondheim, though…

Great leacture on blogs. Inspiering enough to make me want to give it a try. To make it more technical, and to show that one can both read slashdot and blog, without it becoming purely mental masturbation.
Is movabletype the way to go, or are there other sweet blog programs out there?

Great to hear you were inspired, Jorg! My favourite’s MoveableType, but there are others – blogger.com is a very easy way to get started, but I think that you’ve got MoveableType already installed up in Trondheim, no? Otherwise you’ll have to install it on your server, whereas blogger.com etc. don’t require installation.

Very nice lecture. Still preparing to install Moveable Type on my linux box, but there is a lot to install prior to setting it up. Such as perl and MySQL. However, it’s a learning curve. 🙂
Hopefully the people at AVS220 can benefit from my trials and errors in the future.
