Great weekend. Great city. Great friends. Horrid early flight, technical problems on plane, delayed. Disasterous teaching. Expect day to pick up when I pick my daughter up from school and then Noah from airport.

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 […]

It was wonderful watching you girls play Tombraider, with those roars of laughter and total immersion – that almost made up for the lack of stuff that worked otherwise. And the gentle start to the week aspect’s good – wow, I love that my students actually comment here, it’s great! (especially since you’re all so kind)
Marcelo, I tried the URL (http://www.barbaricvs.blogger.com.br/index.html) but got a 404. And since I can’t read Portuguese I’m not really sure why you want me to visit?
Marcelo
Yeah, I changed to http://www.operaetdies.blogger.com.br, sorry, and I’m about to do a English version. I will tell you then…

Not disasterous, experimental! 🙂 If one thing does not work, lets try another, we’ll all get something done, one way or another…..
Spent three hours playing yesterday aswell.
