This sounds like a golden team and good summer reading before I head straight into the final blast of the AI Act in the Council of the EU @MarietjeSchaake @MazzucatoM
Marietje Schaake@MarietjeSchaake

AI policy often aims at regulating the rate of tech uptake, or on fixing market failures. @MazzucatoM and I propose prioritizing public interest objectives to shape the market, not just to correct it. 👀 New Paper: ‘Governing AI in the Public Interest’ ↘️ fsi-live.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/s3fs-public/go…

There have undoubtedly been some difficult days recently but today I got to sign an agreement between @DataSciCampus and the Namibia Stats Agency @namstatsagency to jointly explore using #DataScience to improve stats on deaths and births, and isn't that just really exciting!?

Has anyone done any counts of how many ML papers (on arXiv or in confs) do digital physiognomy type tasks, i.e. classifying people into imposed identity characteristics on the basis of photos?

We've turned temperature data from the UK's recent record-breaking heatwave into sound. The louder/rougher the tone, the hotter the temperatures - ranging from 11C (52F) at night to a new record high of 40C (105F) on 19 July 2022. Listen here: youtube.com/watch?v=bWMkTi…

Keeping cool in the heat today with a refreshing bag of [checks label]... fizzy cola bottle flavour crisps. They're like someone melted cheap cola bottle sweets on to stale cheese and onion crisps. This would be my third pack in a week.
