Tech is central to geopolitics. Tech advantage allows states to wield military, econ & political power. The advantage is ours to lose. A privilege to discuss how 🇦🇺 can secure its tech future. @dvanderkley @KMansted @_ZoeHawkins_ @oertel_janka @NSC_ANU #SecuringOurFuture

Ironically, the fragmentation of internet regulation may favour its concentration by imposing compliance costs that only the giants can bear @_ZoeHawkins_ at #eurodig2023

Internet fragmentation discussed at #EuroDIG2023 With @gap_the_mind @lisefuhr @sullivanISOC @_ZoeHawkins_ @sheetalthiam and Elena Plexida ⁦@ICANN⁩

Excited to talk to industry innovators about how governments are reacting to the risks of #generativeAI with @aruni_sunil & Tom Whittaker tomorrow at @generativeaicon during #LondonTechWeek ⏩️ generativeaiconference.org

Multi-modal #generativeAI presents risks of mis & #disinformation that manipulate public opinion, but it can also be the solution: identifying authenticity, supporting civic discourse and digital literacy says @LogicallyAI at #TechPolicy2023 @techUK

The answer to the uncertainty of the AI boom is not just regulation, @CDEIUK says standards + accreditation play an important supporting role for companies to show what good looks like and reassure hesitant users that their products are safe and reliable #TechPolicy2023 #techUK

At @techUK #TechPolicy2023 conf, @NVIDIAAI says recent attention on #generativeAI is a ‘double edged sword’: raising awareness but also risking the issue being overtaken by hype and the politics of govts needing to be ‘seen to do something’

As govts around the world grapple w how to control harmful content + data practices within their borders, this @CFR_org piece from @tarah provides an excellent explainer on technical realities + policy implications of Montana’s blunt approach. Must read for tech policy makers💡

It’s been 1 year of 🇦🇺’s #OnlineSafety Act. @eSafetyOffice has investigated 1000s of reports of online abuse, while industry completed transparency reports + submitted draft codes to combat illegal material online. Always more to do but great progress 👏🏼 esafety.gov.au/newsroom/media…

Looking forward to moderating this panel at the Oxford Synthetic Media Forum about #generativeAI and #onlinesafety 💻 Come join us at Oxford on 26 Jan for @OSMF2023

Western democracies are advocating for an open internet while also pursuing policies that lead to #internet fragmentation. The West needs to recalibrate their #foreignpolicy messaging to account for new realities. Check out my article for @CFR_org here:

I'm very excited to be directing the Oxford Synthetic Media Forum, Oxford’s first conference on generative AI. The @OSMF2023 is part of @JesusOxford's Digital Hub Programme, taking place on January 26, 2023: Registeration is now open: bit.ly/osmf2023

Love hearing about the investment @bumble is making in the online safety and wellbeing of their female users, incl providing counselling support to those who experience #onlineabuse. As @misskaul said ‘making the internet safer for women, makes it safer for everyone’ 👏🏼 #IGF2022

Enjoyed meeting w @UNTechEnvoy today at #IGF2022 to talk about how we can avoid #internetfragmentation. He says diversity + respect are key to sustaining a unified ‘global consciousness’. That’s why @UN is developing a #GlobalDigitalCompact have your say ➡️un.org/techenvoy/glob…

Important comments from @accessnow’s @FelAnthonio about the need to use the #IGF2022 to have open and critical conversations about the Ethiopian government’s ongoing internet shutdowns in the Tigray region. Join these conversations at igf2022.et 🌎🇪🇹 #KeepitOn
