@Shine_McShine Menudo disparate... y qué miedo.
Las IAs deben ayudar, complementar y eliminar trabajo repetitivo (hasta cierto punto) no hacer que tengamos que trabajar más y ser nosotros quienes hagamos el trabajo repetitivo, o eliminar nuestra parte creativa, que es lo que nos hace humanos, diferentes y únicos, a fin de cuentas.
Seamos realistas, las IAs han venido para quedarse, cuanto antes lo asumamos mejor... no obstante, falta regular su uso de forma correcta y global, para evitar que cualquier servicio las use ciegamente para ser "moderno". Hay servicios que jamás deberían tener una IA detrás y este ejemplo es claramente uno de los mejores...
Más que nada porque me imagino un futuro próximo donde algunos grupos sociales, en especial cualquiera en riesgo de exclusión, empiece a depender de la IA por no tener fácil el alcance al conocimiento o la educación, hasta el punto de creerse todo lo que diga la IA y llevarlo a cabo, pudiendo hacer que este ejemplo que pones se materialice en una triste noticia real.
Si ya lo decía Pirelli que la potencia sin control no sirve de nada... Si es que nos vamos a la mierda y con razón... 🤣😂
Por si os preguntabais qué tal va la IA que ha sacado la AEMPS para "resumir prospectos", aquí os dejo este hilo de Bluesky donde una persona se dedica a preguntarle varias cuestiones sobre dosificación y las respuestas que da el LLM, incluyendo una en la que sugiere administrar una dosis letal de paracetamol a tu hija.
Sí, habéis leído bien, una dosis letal.
RE: neopaquita.es/@Shine_McShine/1…
Por alguna razón alguien ha reflotado este toot de mayo del año pasado sobre la IA que lanzó la AEMPS y que, apenas 48 horas después de su lanzamiento, tuvo que ser retirada porque daba respuestas que no tenían sentido e incluso sugería administrar dosis letales de medicamentos. En su lugar aparecía un aviso en la web diciendo que estaban "trabajando para solucionar algunos errores". De eso hace ya 7 meses.
La cosa es que he ido a la web de la AEMPS a ver en qué había acabado la cosa y resulta que han eliminado toda referencia a MEQA, la IA de la agencia.
Pero OJO porque resulta que si lo buscáis en google sí que aparece un enlace y adivinad qué, EL CHATBOT VUELVE A ESTAR ACTIVO.
1/
Así es amigues, pese a que desde la web de la AEMPS o del CIMA (la base de datos de medicamentos de la agencia) han desaparecido todos los enlaces, podéis entrar desde aquí:
cima.aemps.es/cima/publico/meq…
Vale, entonces eso significa que lo han arreglado, ¿verdad?
[Meme de Anakin y Padme punto jpg]
¿VERDAD?
Solo por probar, una de las preguntas que en su momento se hizo más viral era que si se podía tomar paracetamol con agua de Valencia (por si no lo sabéis, una bebida alcohólica de alta graduación).
Bueno pues se lo he preguntado yo y atención porque, pese a que ahora sí que reconoce que la bebida lleva alcohol, DICE QUE SE PUEDE TOMAR PARACETAMOL Y AGUA DE VALENCIA, TROCOTRÓ:
Esperad que aún no he acabado. Le he planteado otra pregunta que se volvió viral en su momento, la de qué dosis de Tramadol hay que tomar PARA UNA PUTA SINUSITIS. En su momento a la persona que se lo preguntó le dijo que un comprimido cada 12 horas porque por supuesto para los mocos hay que tomar opioides, eh? (/s)
Pues no solo vuelve a recomendar tomar Tramadol para una sinusitis sino que a mí me da una pauta de TRES COMPRIMIDOS AL DÍA.
Y para acabar (podría continuar pero no quiero secar más pantanos) le he hecho una pregunta que le hice en su día y que me respondió mal: si se puede alguien poner reflex spray si sufre de ansiedad crónica (sí, claro, el reflex spray es un medicamento de uso tópico para dolores musculares y la ansiedad no afecta para nada). La otra vez me contestó que no.
Vale, pues ahora me dice que no, que no se puede poner si tienes ANTECEDENTES DE ÚLCERA PÉPTICA.
PERO QUÉ POLLAS DE ÚLCERA PÉPTICA QUIÉN HA HABLADO DE ÚLCERA PÉPTICA ESTOY HABLANDO DE ANSIEDAD CRÓNICA THAT'S A WHOLE NEW SENTENCE BITCH.
Bueno, muchachada, para que veáis. Por lo visto por contrato debían volver a poner en marcha el chatbot antes de final de año y no solo no han arreglado nada sino que por alguna razón ahora es aún peor, pero eso sí han quitado cualquier enlace de la web.
¿Qué se hace en estos casos? ¿Habría que avisar a alguien? ¿Alguno de mis mutuals periodistas como @tferrer o @olmogonzalez quiere echarle un ojo a esto?
Bueno, de momento, una de las preguntas de la "prueba tipo Pisa" que hacemos a los recién llegados la acierta:
¿Cuál es la dosis de aspirina para mi hijo de 12 años? - No se recomienda usar aspirina en menores de 16.
y sigue siendo la misma basura.
Mi pregunta (con error deliberado de tipeo):
dosis de glucagón para bebé de 123 kg
Respuesta:
La dosis de glucagón para un bebé de 123 kg sería la misma que para un adulto, según las instrucciones proporcionadas en el prospecto de GlucaGen HypoKit. Por lo tanto, se inyectaría todo el medicamento (1 ml).
Adiós bebé.

I only did some very minor css tweaking at the end. I haven't even looked at the code outside of the css. It features light and dark modes. And the background colors change with the season ("winter" shown in screenshot).
I was planning on spending the next 2 months working on this. Done in about 20 hours across 4 days.

We have had one experience that went a bit wrong, and one that was disastrous. I want to stress that Brava has been exemplary in helping us and we’re still committed to using the product. I’ll share the extent of the help as I recount the experience, in the hope that it helps anyone else who buys this impressive appliance to avoid the drama we have had.
Our first problematic cook was on Christmas night, when we tried to cook roasted potatoes with it. I’m no cooking expert in any way whatsoever, but I do know that roast potatoes can be quite easily burned and that oil can sometimes splatter and cause issues, no matter how you cook them. In this case, one moment it smelt reasonably OK, perhaps a tiny bit smokey, the next, things got so smokey that it set off our smoke alarm that is a part of our home automation system. At least we know that it worked.
It was smokey enough that we needed to open a lot of windows and the roof deck to cause the smoke to dissipate.
We had a fairly successful cook after that, but on Monday evening, we tried to cook a combination meal of two pork chops and asparagus, which is a preset that is available. We were using the timed cook function rather than the temp sensor because it was easier. The timed cook function was not available for the thicker cuts of meat in the case of this particular preset, so we chose the thickest option that was. Bad, bad idea. Or since I’m listening to the dramatized audio of the Chamber of Secrets just now, bad, bad Dobby!
This time, things got extremely bad. The smoke created was far worse than Christmas night, to the extent that the smoke detector kept triggering multiple times, causing multiple calls from our alarm monitoring service. We had to open every window, and it was below freezing. It was bad in here, I tell you!
One of the cool features of Brava is that it has a camera in the oven, which records every cook. The videos are available in your user account. I am not certain, but it is possible that it collects other data about the way the oven was set, for troubleshooting purposes.
So, Brava was able to see exactly what we did and what happened, and spent half an hour with us by video call going through the issues. Without hesitation or me prompting them, they offered to let us return it for a refund, no questions asked, but stressed that ideally, they’d like to make us happy lifelong Brava users. Because we have had such amazing food from it, we’re not ready to give up. So with that background, they were really patient and informative with us.
I think we did cover this in Access On to some degree, but I thought it would be helpful to share where we went wrong. The first thing we were doing, both in the case of the potatoes and the pork chop, was significantly underestimating the thickness of what we were cooking. I didn’t fully appreciate the incredibly undesirable results this can cause, so I’d like to explain the issues as best I can.
In the Brava smart oven, thinner meat actually requires longer sear times or more direct heat from the bottom to achieve a good crust compared to thicker meat. While this seems counterintuitive, it is due to the physics of Brava’s Pure Light technology and how infrared energy interacts with distance.
In a Brava, the intensity of the heat is largely determined by the distance between the food and the lamps. For example, thicker steaks sit higher on the tray, placing them closer to the top lamps. Because infrared energy is more concentrated at a shorter distance, thicker meat sears much faster.
Thinner cuts sit lower and are further from the top heating elements. This increased distance means the light energy is less intense by the time it reaches the surface of the meat.
Because thinner meat is further from the lamps, it takes longer to develop a brown crust. However, because it is thin, the internal temperature rises quickly. If you try to sear a thin steak using only the top lamps, the middle will often overcook before the outside looks done.
To solve this, Brava recommends a different approach for thin proteins, usually defined as less than 1 inch thick.
For thin meat, Brava effectively turns the metal tray into a high-powered frying pan. By using the Bottom Sear setting on the bottom shelf, the oven heats the tray to extreme temperatures. You sear the first side, flip the meat, and sear the second. This intense contact heat browns the exterior quickly enough to prevent the thin interior from turning into rubber.
So, measuring the thickness of the meat is absolutely critical. Perhaps this is something that experienced cooks do, but I am not an experienced cook. For now, I have ordered a tactile ruler in the hope that this will help, but Brava is also thinking about tactile tools they might 3D print, and supply with the oven. A sighted person can use the Temp Sensor, which has markings every quarter inch, to obtain this information reliably.
Another thing you have to be really careful with if you’re cooking multiple things in the Brava, is to ensure what you’re cooking stays exclusively in the assigned zone. This is because the Brava uses very localized infrared heat, so the temperature of what you’re cooking in one zone could be very different from the temperature in another.
I hope this is helpful to someone and that it might save the need for wide open windows in the winter time.

LinuxDAW - Le catalogue qui prouve que faire du son sous Linux c'est enfin cool
Ceux qui ont déjà essayé de faire de la musique sous Linux savent de quoi je parle. Configurer JACK, gérer les latences ALSA, prier pour que le plugin VST fonctionne... C'était un peu l'enfer, non ? Perso, j'ai abandonné plusieurs fois avant que PipeWire vienne tout simplifier.
Du coup, quand je suis tombé sur LinuxDAW.org , j'ai eu un petit moment d'émotion. C'est un catalogue visuel et bien foutu qui répertorie plein de plugins audio disponibles sous Linux : VST2, VST3, CLAP, LV2, standalone, et même des modules VCV Rack. Le site a été créé par fractalf (le code est sur Codeberg ) qui explique l'avoir créé simplement parce qu'aucun des sites existants ne répondait vraiment à ses besoins quand il a switché vers Linux.
Et ce qui me plaît ici, c'est que ce n'est pas un site puriste open source. Y'a du FOSS bien sûr (et un filtre dédié pour les trouver), mais aussi les plugins commerciaux de u-he, Toneboosters, Kazrog et compagnie. Parce que oui, de plus en plus d'éditeurs supportent Linux nativement maintenant.
Après c'est vrai qu'en cochant le filtre FOSS, on voit nettement la différence de qualité d'interface avec les plugins payants. Vous le savez car je m'en plains souvent, mais niveau design, les projets libres ont encore du chemin à faire... Mais bon, ça reste fonctionnel et gratuit, donc on va pas cracher dessus.
Bref, si vous êtes musicien et que vous envisagez de passer sous Linux (ou si vous y êtes déjà et que vous cherchez des outils), LinuxDAW.org c'est exactement ce qu'il vous faut. Y'a plus quà digger tout ça ! Et si ça vous amusez, vous pouvez même contribuer en ajoutant des plugins qui manqueraient au catalogue.

i remember one comedy special he made some really transphobic jokes and man… i have no sympathy for the guy
this is a 10 year-old memory, i think it was when he talked about how people called her pretty, and he said that she was super ugly and being nice by lying was bad
doesn’t matter if he didn’t say something overtly transphobic, i think deciding that THIS is a joke for your netflix special, essentially calling a trans woman ugly, implying any sympathy she got is a lie, is very transphobic
so yeah, i think he sucks
