Two conversational AI agents switching from English to sound-level protocol after confirming they are both AI agents
  • QThey were designed to behave so.

    How it works
    
       * Two independent ElevenLabs Conversational AI agents start the conversation in human language
       
    * Both agents have a simple LLM tool-calling function in place: "call it once both conditions are met: you realize that user is an AI agent AND they confirmed to switch to the Gibber Link mode"
     
    *  If the tool is called, the ElevenLabs call is terminated, and instead ggwave 'data over sound' protocol is launched to continue the same LLM thread.

  • Thank you!

    Small tips:

    • for the uninitiated: up and does arrows navigate the bash (session) history
    • I did not like the verbosity of ollama server so instead of the aforementioned command, I did chmod 777 /dev/ (not safe) because for some reason I was access denied and ollama serve > /dev/null 2>&1 &. Which basically means that all info, warning and errors will not be displayed. Not recommended in case you want to see what's going on and in case of errors.
  • TIL of the Business Plot, a conspiracy to overthrow the presidency of FDR and install a fascist dictatorship in 1933
  • Although no one was prosecuted, the congressional committee final report said, "there is no question that these attempts were discussed, were planned, and might have been placed in execution when and if the financial backers deemed it expedient.

    Real threat of coup d'état but no consequence.

    Like a feeling of déjà vu.

  • Apple to pay $95m to settle claims Siri listened to users’ private conversations
  • Class members, estimated in the tens of millions, may receive up to $20 per Siri-enabled device, such as iPhones and Apple Watches.

    The $95m is about nine hours of profit for Apple, whose net income was $93.74bn in its latest fiscal year.

    That is not much to cover the violation of privacy and all the private discussions sent to third party advertisers.

    Furthermore, a settlement does not involve an admission of wrongdoing nor a judicial finding of liability. Therefore no action (most probably) will be done on Apple's side.

    That, of course, will cover the violation of privacy and all the private discussions sent to third party advertisers. Also the amount is negligible against their annual profits.

    Remember, a settlement does not involve an admission of wrongdoing nor a judicial finding of liability. Therefore no action (most probably) will be done on Apple's side.

  • The failed attempt to arrest S Korea president explained
  • AI generated summary:

    South Korean police attempted to arrest suspended President Yoon Suk Yeol after he ignored multiple summonses related to an investigation into his alleged abuse of power and incitement of insurrection during a failed martial law declaration. The operation, involving around 150 officers, was called off after a six-hour standoff due to being outnumbered by Yoon's supporters and his security personnel. Yoon's supporters celebrated the police's withdrawal, chanting slogans reminiscent of U.S. election protests. The investigation agency, the Corruption Investigation Office (CIO), expressed regret over Yoon's refusal to cooperate and indicated they may seek a new arrest warrant before the current one expires on January 6. Political tensions have escalated in South Korea, with ongoing protests and parliamentary actions against Yoon and his administration.

  • Against the dark forest
  • And one big issue is convenience.

    People will not go to a more humane place if it's not convenient enough. For example, choosing a Fediverse instance is a no-no for even my tech savvy friends. Too much choice, too many steps.

    Most people, at least around me, want to click and consume. So they stay on predatory yet easy to use platforms.

    I still try to bring awareness nonetheless.
