Then I learn they’re consulting ChatGPT like some computational divining rod because no one can be bothered to read books before banning them.
I’m impossibly tired!
BREAKING: Iowa educators are turning to ChatGPT to help decide which titles should be removed from their school library shelves. trib.al/ranLMAr

🎂 Today marks #5yearsOfGDPR.
While the law largely works well (with all fair criticism) we have a MAJOR enforcement problem. The first 'fear' over the #GDPR fines was soon undermined by the DPA's lack of enforcement.

Just want to announce that I've been building a god-machine for profit by way of using your data without acknowledgement or pay. This is a good thing, because I am a Messiah chosen for the holy task of doing this responsibly
Great to see the European AI Act taking centre stage in the Senate conversation over regulating generative AI. Remember it’s only protecting rights because NGOs have fought for these provisions bbc.com/news/live/world-us-c…
As anyone who's spoken to me lately knows, I am more than a little frustrated that more people are not joining the dots between AI and climate - so thank you to my friends and neighbours at @Wupperinst for inviting me to join their podcast to discuss the connections
New episode of the zukunfstwissen.fm #podcast on the social and environmental impact of artificial intelligence 🎧🎙️ Catherine Miller @radiocatherine and Holger Berg talk about the potentials of #AI, but also about dangers. Listen now 👉 wupperinst.org/en/a/wi/a/s/a…

Congratulations to all the great organisations that have worked against the odds to secure these important victories in the AI Act by persuading MEPs to put people’s rights first. Let’s keep fighting to make sure we improve the regulation further in the next stages 💪💪💪💪
🥳 Today, @EP_SingleMarket @EP_Justice committees voted to put people first in the #AIAct!
MEPs sided with civil society to BAN discriminatory #surveillance🚫
🚨 Concerns remain about the definition of high risk AI & use of AI in migration.
