Hi all, just letting you all know that this year’s LAC will be hosted in Maynooth, in June 18-20. See https://lac26.mucs.club/ for all details and the calls. It would be fantastic to see contributions from this community to the LAC.
This year’s theme is LLMs and FLOSS: ## Large-language models and Free/Libre/open source software. "I am not comfortable contributing to a project that extensively uses AI." - from a post found in a pull request to a github repository. This year's LAC theme explores questions relating to the (sometimes uneasy) relationships that may emerge between LLMs and FLOSS. This of course has many dimensions, from the purely technical, through to the practical, and finally to the ethical. As code repositories such as github roll out support for third-party and their own LLM agents, this is an area that needs vigorous discussion and assessment. It is probably not a good idea to ignore it, as it is unlikely to go away. It may be possible to formulate a position from the LAC community, which we might carry forward for further consideration in other forums. Even if such a thing cannot exist, it is still important that we put forward our ideas in relation to this issue. Therefore, it makes good sense to invite contributions to this theme and make it a central point of discussion at the LAC. - The LAC2026 organising team. _______________________________________________ Faudiostream-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/faudiostream-users
