Actually wait I just thought about this and realized that the precise timing of the ACTUAL GitHub seed bank, by which I mean the Arctic Code Vault, on 2020-02-02, makes it more or less a perfect snapshot of pre-Copilot GitHub. Also precisely timed before we all got brain damage from COVID. This is the only remaining archive of source code by people with a fully working sense of smell
(Bonus points because the Arctic World Archive is located in Svaldbard and that’s the name of the AI in Stacey Kade’s “Cold Eternity”.)

Using AI To Modernize The Ubuntu Error Tracker Produced Some Code That Was “Plain Wrong”
A week ago I wrote about AI being used to help modernize Ubuntu’s Error Tracker. Microsoft GitHub Copilot was tasked to help adapt its Cassandra database usage to modern standards. It’s worked in some areas but even for a rather straight forward task, some of the generated functions ended up being “plain wrong” according to the developer involved… ⌘ Read more

The afternoon didn’t start better: we got a talk about the EUDI, with the implied idea that an “European ID” is automatically an example of digital sovereignty, when in fact what is being implemented isn’t.
I could go further into it, but instead I’ll leave here a link to the comment I was impelled to write on the EUDI project after the presentation:
The #EUDI panel was followed by Caroline Stage Olsen, Minister for Digital Affairs of Denmark. The tldr; of her keynote - which had two points of note: 1) “I support AI gigafactories” (because all that is shiny and new is something we should invest in), and “innovation is sovereignty” which is her way of saying that she wants to use the sovereignty topic not to talk about sovereignty but as an excuse to promote “innovation” - in that ideology brand that supports the idea that in order to innovate more we need to simplify and de-regulate…
