Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>"As chatbots grow more powerful, so does the potential for harm. OpenAI recently debuted “ChatGPT agent,” an upgraded version of the bot that can complete much more complex tasks, such as purchasing groceries and booking a hotel. “Although the utility is significant,” OpenAI CEO Sam Altman posted on X after the product launched, “so are the potential risks.” Bad actors may design scams to specifically target AI agents, he explained, tricking bots into giving away personal information or taking “actions they shouldn’t, in ways we can’t predict.” Still, he shared, “we think it’s important to begin learning from contact with reality.” In other words, the public will learn how dangerous the product can be when it hurts people."</p><p><a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2025/07/chatgpt-ai-self-mutilation-satanism/683649/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">theatlantic.com/technology/arc</span><span class="invisible">hive/2025/07/chatgpt-ai-self-mutilation-satanism/683649/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/GenerativeAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GenerativeAI</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/OpenAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenAI</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/ChatGPT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ChatGPT</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AISafety" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AISafety</span></a></p>
Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>"Alright, I’ve officially spent too much time reading Trump’s 28-page AI Action Plan, his three new AI executive orders, listening to his speech on the subject, and reading coverage of the event. I’ll put it bluntly: The vibes are bad. Worse than I expected, somehow.</p><p>Broadly speaking, the plan is that the Trump administration will help Silicon Valley put the pedal down on AI, delivering customers, data centers and power, as long as it operates in accordance with Trump’s ideological frameworks; i.e., as long as the AI is anti-woke.</p><p>More specifically, the plan aims to further deregulate the tech industry, penalize US states that pass AI laws, speed adoption of AI in the federal government and beyond, fast-track data center development, fast-track nuclear and fossil fuel power to run them, move to limit China’s influence in AI, and restrict speech in AI and the frameworks governing them by making terms like diversity, inclusion, misinformation, and climate change forbidden. There’s also a section on American workers that’s presented as protecting them from AI, but in reality seeks to give employers more power over them. It all portends a much darker future than I thought we’d see in this thing."</p><p><a href="https://www.bloodinthemachine.com/p/trumps-ai-action-plan-is-a-blueprint" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">bloodinthemachine.com/p/trumps</span><span class="invisible">-ai-action-plan-is-a-blueprint</span></a></p><p><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/USA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USA</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/GenerativeAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GenerativeAI</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AIActionPlan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AIActionPlan</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/BigTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BigTech</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AIPolicy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AIPolicy</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Lobbying" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Lobbying</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Plutocracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Plutocracy</span></a></p>
Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>"[I]t appears that SoftBank may not be able to — or want to — proceed with any of these initiatives other than funding OpenAI's current round, and evidence suggests that even if it intends to, SoftBank may not be able to afford investing in OpenAI further.</p><p>I believe that SoftBank and OpenAI's relationship is an elaborate ruse, one created to give SoftBank the appearance of innovation, and OpenAI the appearance of a long-term partnership with a major financial institution that, from my research, is incapable of meeting the commitments it has made.</p><p>In simpler terms, OpenAI and SoftBank are bullshitting everyone.</p><p>I can find no tangible proof that SoftBank ever intended to seriously invest money in Stargate, and have evidence from its earnings calls that suggests SoftBank has no idea — or real strategy — behind its supposed $3-billion-a-year deployment of OpenAI software.</p><p>In fact, other than the $7.5 billion that SoftBank invested earlier in the year, I don't see a single dollar actually earmarked for anything to do with OpenAI at all.</p><p>SoftBank is allegedly going to send upwards of $20 billion to OpenAI by December 31 2025, and doesn't appear to have started any of the processes necessary to do so, or shown any signs it will.

Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>"Consider AI Overviews, the algorithm-generated blurbs that often now appear front and centre when users ask questions. Fears that these would reduce the value of search-adjacent ads haven’t come to pass. On the contrary, Google says AI Overviews are driving 10 per cent more queries in searches where they appear and haven’t dented revenue. Paid clicks were up 4 per cent year on year, the company said in a call with analysts on Wednesday.</p><p>But as AI yields more, it costs more. Google’s capital expenditure on data centres and such trappings this year will now be about $85bn, versus its prior estimate of $75bn. That’s almost quadruple what the company spent in 2020, when AI was a glimmer in Silicon Valley’s eye. It’s also 22 per cent of the company’s expected revenue this year, according to LSEG, the highest annual level since 2006."</p><p><a href="https://www.ft.com/content/7589393d-e562-46b7-9c43-5ffaf195e8d6" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">ft.com/content/7589393d-e562-4</span><span class="invisible">6b7-9c43-5ffaf195e8d6</span></a></p><p><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Google" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Google</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/BIgTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BIgTech</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/SiliconValley" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SiliconValley</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/GenerativeAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GenerativeAI</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AIOverview" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AIOverview</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Search" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Search</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/SearchEngines" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SearchEngines</span></a></p>

The figure is on a par with the first half of last year but has nearly doubled since 2023.</p><p>The lobbying boom over the past two years highlights how the AI industry, which is backed by Big Tech companies and deep-pocketed investors, is looking to shape policy at a time of intense debate about the technology.</p><p>“The US government is not only a gigantic potential customer but also a public validator of new technology approaches,” said Tony Samp, head of AI policy at law firm DLA Piper and a lobbyist for OpenAI, Boston Dynamics and other companies. “Unlike in years past when the government was often viewed as a hindrance, the business community increasingly views the US government as a key partner.”"</p><p><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/USA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USA</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/GenerativeAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GenerativeAI</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/OpenAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenAI</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Anthropic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Anthropic</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AIHype" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AIHype</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Lobbying" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Lobbying</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/BigTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BigTech</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AIPolicy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AIPolicy</span></a> <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/df01dcf8-dbc4-4b56-8d8b-67b7e6a83eef" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">ft.com/content/df01dcf8-dbc4-4</span><span class="invisible">b56-8d8b-67b7e6a83eef</span></a></p>
Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>"[W]hat we are doing is shepherding AI, limiting it to certain contexts. We are learning where it’s best to call it, how is best to feed it. And what to do with the output. So is it looks very much like an editorial process, an editorial workflow where you provide some initial input, maybe some some idea on what content to produce, then you review it. There’s always that quality assurance, quality control side, the supervision.</p><p>AI is not really autonomous. It relies a lot on us. And I feel like sometimes there are days where, when coding through AIs or doing some assisted writing, I’m spending more time helping out the AI doing the actual task that I’m asking the AI to do. But I take this as a learning process. I read this article the other day, Nobody knows how to build with AI yet. And it was a developer saying that they haven’t quite figured out how to best work with AI. There were lots of comments around the fact that you have to spend lots of time, you have to learn how to talk to it, and when the model changes, you have to also maybe change something you’re doing. You have to learn how to optimize your time. But your presence is always mandatory.”</p><p><a href="https://passo.uno/webinar-ai-tech-writing/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">passo.uno/webinar-ai-tech-writ</span><span class="invisible">ing/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/TechnicalWriting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TechnicalWriting</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/GenerativeAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GenerativeAI</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/LLMs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LLMs</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Chatbots" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Chatbots</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/PromptEngineering" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PromptEngineering</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/SoftwareDocumentation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SoftwareDocumentation</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/SoftwareDevelopment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SoftwareDevelopment</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/TechnicalCommunication" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TechnicalCommunication</span></a></p>
