Almost 15 months after I FOI'd time-sensitive public records & a half-year after IPC ordered the ministry to release them, I have nothing, not even a promised release date. Information & Privacy Commissioner, with a mandate to ensure compliance with FOI law, has failed to help me

In honor of International Women’s Day, name your favorite quote by a woman.

Tonight, we reached an agreement with the Department of War to deploy our models in their classified network. In all of our interactions, the DoW displayed a deep respect for safety and a desire to partner to achieve the best possible outcome. AI safety and wide distribution of benefits are the core of our mission. Two of our most important safety principles are prohibitions on domestic mass surveillance and human responsibility for the use of force, including for autonomous weapon systems. The DoW agrees with these principles, reflects them in law and policy, and we put them into our agreement. We also will build technical safeguards to ensure our models behave as they should, which the DoW also wanted. We will deploy FDEs to help with our models and to ensure their safety, we will deploy on cloud networks only. We are asking the DoW to offer these same terms to all AI companies, which in our opinion we think everyone should be willing to accept. We have expressed our strong desire to see things de-escalate away from legal and governmental actions and towards reasonable agreements. We remain committed to serve all of humanity as best we can. The world is a complicated, messy, and sometimes dangerous place.

Elvis Presley’s granddaughter, Riley Keough, closed the CHANEL show at Paris Fashion Week with a cover of Prince's "When Doves Cry." I’m sure pre-recorded and she’s lip syncing but I enjoyed the production. It must be hard when your grandfather was the King of Rock and Roll. 🎸 Enjoy!
