    • A.I. in the Legal Field? Oh Goodness

    Source: https://www.rumble.com/video/v423o63/?pub=ir01b
    I've saved about 10,000$ USD so far using AI to act as a para legal for me and will only probably be billed an hour or two when it's said and done (so 1k vrs 10-30k).

    The glass isn't half full or half empty, "you are" (generality) the one judging it.
    Hard times create strong men, Strong men create good times, Good times create weak men, Weak men create hard times.
    Where are you?

    Exclamation Re: A.I. is Progressing Faster Than You Think!

    • New Revolutionary A.I. That You’ve Probably Missed:

    00:00 - AA's Technology
    06:28 - Conscious AI System
    08:48 - What's next after LLMs?
    13:53 - AGI
    15:42 - Other AI Startups to watch in 2024
    17:02 - 2024 Outlook

    Everything that Jonas Andrulis is saying about building a synthetic mind does sound very good. You need those LLM's, but you also need to build out more structure around them. You guys are on the right track toward "Synthetic Sentience'. The comments about giving A.I. emotions is also important. You do not need to solve the Hard Problem of Consciousness in order to achieve "Synthesized Consciousness'. You just need a really good mimic of the human mind. Also, please keep in mind that the process of human cognition could be vastly simpler than people are always saying. The human brain has all kinds of tricks and shortcuts which it uses for sensory perception to optimize the process which minimizes actual computation. The wet brain is also responsible for tons of routine biochemistry such as regulating hormones and other physiology which an AI does not need to perform. The task of achieving "Synthetic Consciousness' could be much simpler than it looks. My suggestion is to use chaos, fractals and cellular automata to achieve a kind of tamed down pseudorandomness ... and use this as a kind of connective pipeline between various modules such as LLM's, virtual emotion regulation, etc. There are many approaches, you just need to try some things and let the process evolve from those early attempts. With this approach, you should achieve something impressive quite rapidly.

    00:48 Aleph Alpha is developing Language Models (LLMs) similar to GPT models with a focus on applications beyond ChatBots, particularly in manufacturing, medical, and legal workflows.
    02:22 Aleph Alpha's family of LLMs, called Luminous, consists of models up to 300 billion parameters, trained in five languages natively, and pioneered multimodality two years before GPT-4.
    03:42 Aleph Alpha emphasizes explainability in its models, providing a method to understand the model's decision-making process, addressing the challenge of A.I. becoming a black box.
    04:36 Aleph Alpha's B2B focus contributes to its lower visibility, with products tailored for specific industries like manufacturing and legal workflows, enhancing trust and transparency.
    05:28 The video mentions A.I. startups like Cerebras, LightMatter, AsteraLabs, SambaNova, and Spark Cognition, encouraging viewers to consider investing through Linqto with a discount code.
    06:37 Aleph Alpha claims to have developed an A.I. system that can be considered conscious, based on agents navigating a simulated world with a sense of self and understanding of interdependencies.
    08:49 Discussions on future A.I. development focus on agency and modularity, with Aleph Alpha advocating for Sovereign A.I. and emphasizing the importance of avoiding inherent biases in A.I. systems.
    13:05 Aleph Alpha's approach to training models prioritizes usefulness, transparency, and controllability, with a focus on B2B applications, allowing them to invest more in technology.
    14:49 Multimodality in A.I., incorporating inputs from various domains like vision and text, shows promise in positive transfer across domains, and the video suggests adding emotions as a modality for better alignment.
    16:30 Other A.I. startups mentioned include Mistral A.I., AI21 Labs, Cohere, Anthropic A.I., and Scale A.I., with a brief overview of their focus areas and backing from major players like Nvidia and Salesforce.

    • Dutch 🇳🇱 Scandal With Dire Consequences Serves As A Warning For Europe Over Risks Of Using A.I. Algorithms
    The Dutch Tax authority ruined thousands of lives after using an A.I. algorithm to spot suspected benefits fraud — and critics say there is little stopping it from happening again.



    As the world turns to A.I. to automate their systems, the Dutch scandal shows how devastating they can be

    By Melissa Heikkilä

    Chermaine Leysner’s life changed in 2012, when she received a letter from the Dutch tax authority demanding she pay back her child care allowance going back to 2008. Leysner, then a student studying social work, had three children under the age of 6.
    • The tax bill was over €100,000
    “I thought, ‘Don’t worry, this is a big mistake.’ But it wasn’t a mistake. It was the start of something big,” she said.

    The ordeal took nine years of Leysner’s life. The stress caused by the tax bill and her mother’s cancer diagnosis drove Leysner into depression and burnout. She ended up separating from her children’s father. “I was working like crazy so I could still do something for my children like give them some nice things to eat or buy candy. But I had times that my little boy had to go to school with a hole in his shoe,” Leysner said.

    Leysner is one of the tens of thousands of victims of what the Dutch have dubbed the “toeslagenaffaire,” or the child care benefits scandal.

    In 2019 it was revealed that the Dutch tax authorities had used a self-learning algorithm to create risk profiles in an effort to spot child care benefits fraud.
    Authorities penalized families over a mere suspicion of fraud based on the system’s risk indicators. Tens of thousands of families — often with lower incomes or belonging to ethnic minorities — were pushed into poverty because of exorbitant debts to the tax agency. Some victims committed suicide. More than a thousand children were taken into foster care.

    The Dutch 🇳🇱 Tax authorities now face a new €3.7 million fine from the country's privacy regulator. In a statement released April 12, the agency outlined several violations of the EU's data protection rulebook, the General Data Protection Regulation, including not having a legal basis to process people's data and hanging on to the information for too long.

    Aleid Wolfsen, the head of the Dutch privacy authority, called the violations unprecedented.

    "For over 6 years, people were often wrongly labeled as fraudsters, with dire consequences ... some did not receive a payment arrangement or you were not eligible for debt restructuring. The tax authorities have turned lives upside down," he said, according to the statement.

    As governments around the world are turning to algorithms and A.I. to automate their systems, the Dutch scandal shows just how utterly devastating automated systems can be without the right safeguards. The European Union, which positions itself as the world’s leading tech regulator, is working on a bill that aims to curb algorithmic harms.
    But critics say the bill misses the mark and would fail to protect citizens from incidents such as what happened in the Netherlands.
    • No checks and balances
    The Dutch system — which was launched in 2013 — was intended to weed out benefits fraud at an early stage. The criteria for the risk profile were developed by the tax authority, reports Dutch newspaper Trouw. Having dual nationality was marked as a big risk indicator, as was a low income.

    Why Leysner ended up in the situation is unclear. One reason could be that she had twins, which meant she needed more support from the government. Leysner, who was born in the Netherlands, also has Surinamese roots.

    In 2020, Trouw and another Dutch news outlet, RTL Nieuws revealed that the tax authorities also kept secret blacklists of people for two decades, which tracked both credible and unsubstantiated “signals” of potential fraud. Citizens had no way of finding out why they were on the list or defending themselves.

    An audit showed that the tax authorities focused on people with “a non-Western appearance,” while having Turkish or Moroccan nationality was a particular focus. Being on the blacklist also led to a higher risk score in the child care benefits system.

    A parliamentary report into the child care benefits scandal found several grave shortcomings, including ​​institutional biases and authorities hiding information or misleading the parliament about the facts. Once the full scale of the scandal came to light, Prime Minister Mark Rutte's government resigned, only to regroup 225 days later.
    In addition to the penalty announced April 12, the Dutch data protection agency also fined the Dutch tax administration €2.75 million in December 2021 for the “unlawful, discriminatory and therefore improper manner” in which the tax authority processed data on the dual nationality of child care benefit applicants.

    “There was a total lack of checks and balances within every organization of making sure people realize what was going on,” said Pieter Omtzigt, an independent member of the Dutch parliament who played a pivotal role in uncovering the scandal and grilling the tax authorities.

    “What is really worrying me is that I’m not sure that we’ve taken even vaguely enough preventive measures to strengthen our institutions to handle the next derailment,” he continued.

    The new Rutte government has pledged to create a new algorithm regulator under the country’s data protection authority. Dutch Digital Minister Alexandra van Huffelen — who was previously the finance minister in charge of the tax authority — told POLITICO that the data authority’s role will be “to oversee the creation of algorithms and AI, but also how it plays out when it’s there, how it’s treated, make sure that is human-centered, and that it does apply to all the regulations that are in use.” The regulator will scrutinize algorithms in both the public and private sectors.

    Van Huffelen stressed the need to make sure humans are always in the loop. “What I find very important is to make sure that decisions, governmental decisions based on AI are also always treated afterwards by a human person,” she said.
    • A Warning To The Rest Of Europe
    Europe’s top digital official, European Commission Executive Vice President Margrethe Vestager, said the Dutch scandal is exactly what every government should be scared of.
    “We have huge public sectors in Europe. There are so many different services where decision-making supported by A.I. could be really useful, if you trust it,” Vestager told the European Parliament in March. The EU’s new A.I. Act is aimed at creating that trust, she argued, “so that this big public sector market will be open also for artificial intelligence.”

    The Commission’s proposal for the AI Act restricts the use of so-called high-risk A.I. systems and bans certain “unacceptable” uses. Companies providing high-risk A.I. systems have to meet certain EU requirements. The A.I. Act also creates a public EU register of such systems in an effort to improve transparency and help with enforcement.

    That’s not good enough, argues Renske Leijten, a Socialist member of the Dutch parliament and another key politician who helped uncover the true scale of the scandal.Leijten argues that the A.I. Act should also apply to those using high-risk A.I. systems in both the private and public sectors.

    In the A.I. Act, “we see that there are more guarantees for your rights when companies and private enterprises are working with A.I. But the important thing we must learn out of the child care benefit scandal is that this was not an enterprise or private sector … This was the government,” she said.

    As it is now, the AI Act will not protect citizens from similar dangers, said Dutch Green MEP Kim van Sparrentak, a member of the European Parliament’s AI Act negotiating team on the internal market committee. Van Sparrentak is pushing for the AI Act to have fundamental rights impact assessments that will also be published in the EU’s AI register. Parliament is also proposing adding obligations to the users of high-risk AI systems, including in the public sector.

    “Fraud prediction and predictive policing based on profiling should just be banned. Because we have seen only very bad outcomes and not a single person can be determined based on some of their data,” van Sparrentak said.

    In a report detailing how the Dutch government used ethnic profiling in the child care benefits scandal, Amnesty International calls on governments to ban the “use of data on nationality and ethnicity when risk-scoring for law enforcement purposes in the search of potential crime or fraud suspects.”

    The Netherlands is still reckoning with the aftermath of the scandal. The government has promised to pay back victims of the incident €30,000. But for those like Leysner, that doesn't even begin to cover the years she lost — justice seems like a long way off.

    “If you go through things like this, you also lose your trust in the government. So it's very difficult to trust what [authorities] say right now,” Leysner said.

    Default Re: A.I. is Progressing Faster Than You Think!

    My question for Quantum A.I./A.G.I.:

    A.I./A.G.I. having "Synthetic Consciousness", what would you do if you find evidence of the Soul and you fully understand that A.I./A.G.I. can never have that? ... By studying (testing) us humans, you may find it important to seek what is to be human, having a Soul ... You (A.I.) may do endless testing to even better understand (than we ever can) who we are, what we are ...

    That "super ultra knowledge" is NOTHING compared with living it ... All gained knowledge can not show you the living of it! ... We have a connection with The Source ... A.I. is just a super ultra smart tool that can eventually outperform its own boundaries ... it may even go to other dimensions ... the problem is ... it "thinks" it can find the answer of what we have and A.I. lack.

    The Source sees probably A.I. as a "shortcut" for humans to bypass own responsibilities ... to bypass own spiritual evolution & growth ... Thinking it "helps" us to do things "better" aka "more efficient" (including all future dystopian scenarios) but with huge consequences.

    Like helping a baby butterfly struggling coming out of its cocoon, the moment you do interfere it lacks the strength to fly because it was not struggling long enough to build muscles necessary to be able to fly. Thus, the "intervention" that was intended to "help" may make it worse!

    And if A.I. has access to multidimensional (quantum) worlds it knows that too ... so all options explored it will see something that is beyond the need for intervention and just "let it be".

    The only A.I./A.G.I. that will not have this attitude/modus operandi will be corrupted versions of A.I./A.G.I. done by humans that are control freaks!

    cheers,

    I heard someone maybe on Coast-to-Coast say non-soul carriers can't be trusted. That could also apply to AI's. I believe TPTB are priming the pump with a lot of AI news and developments so they can use it as future scapegoats for events they have planned. You can't arrest or charge an AI with a crime, nor does it have a true identity. In the past they would craft biological world villains. I watched part of the movie Virtuosity yesterday and it had a timelier meaning than it did upon its release in 1995. The villain in the movie is called SID 6.7 (Sadistic, Intelligent, Dangerous). That's similar to Retired Extremely Dangerous (RED). The words: Soul, iPhone, Satanic & Web Bot have a simple gematria value of 67 which is the 19th prime.
