"Elon #Musk joins call for pause in creation of giant AI ‘digital minds’ Steve #Wozniak and #DeepMind, #Meta, #Miscrosoft, #Google and #Amazon engineers raise alert over risks as #UK government shuns regulation

I just started a managerial job in IT at s new organization. They have #onenote by #miscrosoft, but it is too heavy. So, I looked up open source alternatives and came across #joplin. Wow, what an awesome note taking application. No cloud or server required. It's one of those solutions that I wish I would have across years earlier.
