Hacking Edge-AI

AI is moving from the Cloud to the Edge. Seeing the impossibility of scaling transformers on GPU clusters and the wild amount of cash flowing to anything that can be called AI. Now using a variety of specialised and exotic hardware companies are applying AI at our doorsteps, telephone masts, street lights. Companies like Flock Safety apply AI at the edge in their cameras they claim for efficiency and privacy. Yet, they now fail on both counts. Now that AI is breaking out of the climate controlled data centres. Will it become more smash-able, controllable? Can we prefigure convivial visions of AI? Or, will we see the next round of datafication of the enclosure? What is the Internet of Battlefield Things and how can we fight it? I plan to show some Edge-AI boards and applications. And hope for some help in attempting to find out its limits and vulnerabilities.

Jujutsu (jj) is a new version control system that uses Git as its backend. Since trying it last year, it has completely replaced Git for me. It manages to be less complex than Git, while giving you more control. I think you'll like it too! Lately, when people ask me complex Git questions, my answer is often: "First, install jj…" And that's only half a joke. :P --- A few things I like about Jujutsu: There's no index, but instead you get a subcommand for splitting changes. Commits have stable ...

How can we work together to improve political decision-making processes in the long term? What do you want from democracy? Motivation: While our democracy can be shaped by the people as they wish on paper, the population seems to be largely dissatisfied with political actions: - The handling of many crises appears to be inadequate - Urgent problems seem to be postponed - Democratic participation seems tedious and ineffective Dissatisfaction mixed with these perceptions can lead to the loss of ...
