Espadas de plomo
---
Cuenta la leyenda que el emperador romano Cómodo gustaba de bajar a la arena del circo a batirse en duelo con los gladiadores. Enfundado en una ornamentada armadura, se hacía llamar 'Hércules reencarnado', y como Hércules, cuando su espada golpeaba los gladios de sus rivales estos estallaban en mil pedazos ante el impacto, ante el asombro y la algarabía del populacho.

No se puede ganar una partida si el otro tiene las cartas marcadas. Al final hay que romper la baraja y construir alternativas en otros lugares más verdes, lejos de nazis y trolls y bots porno.
O puedes quedarte a "dar la batalla" con tu espada de plomo.

Solar farms can help INCREASE biodiversity.
Critics often claim that they are an environmental disaster leading to a loss in biodiversity.
But research shows: Solar farms tend to have more species of plant, insect & bird than equivalent farm fields.

Solar farms a ‘blight on the landscape’? Research shows they can benefit wildlife
Nestled among farmland, solar farms can be a refuge for wildlife.The Conversation

La IA entrenada con IA basura produce basura
A medida que proliferen las páginas web basura escritas por la IA, los modelos que se basan en esos datos sufrirán las consecuencias.MIT Technology Review
me parece tan surrealista el artículo. "Científicos con teorías conspiranóicas de una tecnología creada por científicos". Desde el principio se trata de conocer sus limitaciones y de poco en poco vaya mejorando paralelamente a la tecnología.
Simplemente están publicando resultados, basándose en modelos actuales como ejemplo. Pero eso no limita el que las teorías en que se basan y los lenguajes no permitan seguir evolucionándolo. No estamos ni al comienzo de todo ésto
la primera suerte de implementación de una IA en una máquina de cálculo data de 1951, Alan Turing con su Mark I. Una máquina de 5 toneladas con 16*3 metros y 2,5 de alto, y que podía jugar al ajedrez.
Fue en 1956 cuando se acuñó el término "Inteligencia Artificial" como tal, para referirse a los estudio de recrear inteligencia por medio de ordenadores
en 1972 un Doctor en una universidad ya chateaba en msdos con una IA rudimentaria, "Chatterbox". En los 90 la revista Micromania distribuía una especie de Shareware con una cara parlante que le preguntabas cosas. También IBM y su Deep Blue, dándose de leches con Kaspárov.
Entre los nazis soltando bulos por doquier y ahora "qué viene la IA, es nuestra perdición..". Bajemos un poco todos a tierra. Es una herramienta más
totalmente de acuerdo. Por eso mismo no es sostenible la dependencia de grandes corporaciones y sus modelos depredadores.
Hay sectores más tochos en que el cambio es más lento debido a la misma infraestructura como país o sociedad.
En cuanto a la revolución tecnológica y digital sí tenemos más a mano "desconectar" de estas corporaciones, adoptando modelos más respetuosos. Se trata de trastear en PCs antiguos y montar mini servidores a nivel personal, entre amigos, vecinos o barrios
Llevamos más de 50 años con IA y ahora es cuando el nivel de cálculo computacional abre las puertas de forma masiva, pero no se ha dejado de evolucionar ni se dejará.
Igualmente, hay que encontrar un balance justo para todo esto
