A group of Wikipedia editors have formed WikiProject AI Cleanup, “a collaboration to combat the increasing problem of unsourced, poorly-written AI-generated content on Wikipedia.” The group’s goal is to protect one of the world’s largest repositories of information from the same kind of misleading AI-generated information that has plagued Google search results, books sold on Amazon, and academic journals. “A few of us had noticed the prevalence of unnatural writing that showed clear signs of being AI-generated, and we managed to replicate similar ‘styles’ using ChatGPT,” Ilyas Lebleu, a founding member of WikiProject AI Cleanup, told me in an email. “Discovering some common AI catchphrases allowed us to quickly spot some of the most egregious examples of generated articles, which we quickly wanted to formalize into an organized project to compile our findings and techniques.”

“A few of us had noticed the prevalence of unnatural writing that showed clear signs of being AI-generated, and we managed to replicate similar ‘styles’ using ChatGPT,” Ilyas Lebleu, a founding member of WikiProject AI Cleanup, told me in an email. “Discovering some common AI catchphrases allowed us to quickly spot some of the most egregious examples of generated articles, which we quickly wanted to formalize into an organized project to compile our findings and techniques.” In many cases, WikiProject AI Cleanup finds AI-generated content on Wikipedia with the same methods others have used to find AI-generated content in scientific journals and Google Books, namely by searching for phrases commonly used by ChatGPT. One egregious example is this Wikipedia article about the Chester Mental Health Center, which in November of 2023 included the phrase “As of my last knowledge update in January 2022,” referring to the last time the large language model was updated.  Other instances are harder to detect. Lebleu and another WikiProject AI Cleanup founding member who goes by Queen of Hearts told me that the most “impressive” examples they found of AI-generated content on Wikipedia so far is an article about the Ottoman fortress of Amberlisihar.

[...]

“One small detail, the fortress never existed,” Lebleu said. Aside from a few tangential facts mentioned in the article, like that Mehmed the Conqueror, or Mehmed II, was a real person, everything else in the article is fake. “The entire thing was an AI-generated hoax, with well-formatted citations referencing completely nonexistent works.” Fake citations, Lebleu said, are a more “pernicious” issue because they might stay undetected for months. Even if someone was using an LLM trained on a corpus of data relevant to the Wikipedia article, it could generate text that reads well and with correctly formatted citations of real sources, it still wouldn’t be able to correctly match a citation to a specific claim made in a specific body of work.

Hi! I was wondering if you knew why shady belle was abandoned? I did some research earlier and apparently it was a plantation and was abandoned during the civil war. Do you know any more details about it?

Okay, I do have some details... But I don't know if they will clear up anything.

One of the first things is that I don't think it was abandoned during the civil war, because that war ended in 1865 yet there are many dates in the graveyard after that. Agnes Dowd died in 1883, Archilles Chevelier in 1896, Coline LeBleu in 1886, Damita Ravarre in 1890, Esther Leroux in 1872, Michele Jardoin in 1897 and Louis Breax in 1888.

Some of the things that I notice about all these names is that, one, none of them share last name, which is weird considering that plantations are often owned by families. Two, if the last person who lived there was buried in 1897, then how is it all rotten already in 1898? And three, if it was abandoned during the civil war, then why bury your loved once there, it is not a family grave so it shouldn't have a special meaning and it is also a hastle to get there due to the Lemoyne Raiders who appearently have been staying there since the war.

I have heard some people state that all these graves belong to Raiders, but we know for a fact they do not. Agnes Dowd was a rich woman, we know her story because we can meet her ghost, and even if her family hated her and didn't want her buried at their family graveyard, why place her there when it is so hard to get to? Another point to debunk this is that the last person who died was a woman, and all the Lemoyne Raiders are in fact men because they are all veterns and women couldn't be veterans.

I think the developers just missed this and that they kinda wrote over one another.

The Mercury Program - “Nazca Lines of Peru” From the album From the Vapor of Gasoline (2000)

Last song scrobbled from iTunes at Last.fm

While I don’t think that the Nazca Plateau is home to any erstwhile landing strips for alien starships, I can sure understand how its eerie, arid and isolated windscape might just facilitate the imagining, at least among our more suggestible and our more visionary, of just such a series of fantastic runways.

I think that The Mercury Program might be some of those doing this imagining, actually, visualizing the primitive starport as it might have been 1500 years ago, an anachronism nestled like a piece of engraved platinum between the hardscrabble Andean foothills and the Pacific Ocean.

he band’s music is nothing if not evocative, often spacious and always multilayered. Early on in “Nazca Lines of Peru,” it’s only Dave Lebleu’s marvelous syncopated drumming that separates the tune from minimalism, all you hear is the buzzing of the bass and of the wind, all you see are the high white clouds sailing by. Later on, a webbed hand switches the starjets on, and the guitars roar, as the chromium gullwing of the alien ship disappears into the cerulean blue of the Sechura Desert sky.

And then, as quick as the hummingbird whose wings magnified 10,000 times are etched into the rusty landscape, it’s only the echo of the wind and the vibraphones again, the Nazca tribesmen listening as the breeze blows across the lonesome plateau, watching the seasons change, waiting for the 20 minutes of rain each year, drawing another geoglyph onto the face of the desert every generation or so, waiting for the starships and the frogmen to return.

reuzegom killers

During a student hazing, these men unintentionally killed a fellow student through a prolonged overly harsh hazing. They are all members of the sorority "reuzegom" and all of them are rich, influential boys who have barely received any punishment for their actions. The punishment was: a fine of 400 euros for each person and community service of approximately 350 hours for each person, and none of the perpetrators will have a criminal record. These low sentences are (partly) due to social inequality which ensures that there is no justice for the victim, and why a lot of people in Belgium are angry about this verdict, including me.

And these are the perpetrators who go free for their deeds:

Arthur Versavel,                       Leon Lesseliers,

Arthur Gehéniau,                           Jef Jonkers,

Alexander Garmyn,                     Benoît Plaitin,

Viktor Knevels,                             Zazou Bindi,

Jef Slosse,                              Maxime Peeters,

Maurice Géheniau,                   Willem Peeters,

Simon Peeters,                        Pierre Onghena,

Jerôme Verstraeten,            Quentin Wauters,

But honestly, for ~$12 a bottle, readily available in your local Wegmans, you can do a *lot* worse.

LE CIEL TOMBÉ

C'était un jour d'orage,

 plus bleu que triste,

 ton arôme encore 

imprégné dans mes pupilles,

   presque invisible 

couleur de sel 

presque sensible, 

intense comme la mer.

 C'était un jour 

comme aujourd'hui,

 tu m'as volé, 

nous avons souri

 et le goût de chaque disque 

nous a fait mieux nous comprendre,

 peut-être chanter,

 peut-être danser.

 Même que cela conduirait au chaos, de mal comprendre votre fuite, vos mauvaises actions, vos addictions et ne pas être moi. J'espère seulement que le ciel tombe, ce soir le bleu le prend.
