Why is Google Bard introduced in 180 countries but not in Netherlands, France, Germany, Spain or any other EU country? In the next few tweets I will try to give a possible explanation.
The potential compliance issues with upcoming "AI regulations" in Europe could be a concern for large language models like Google Bard. These proposed regulations are still in a nebulous stage and have not been enacted into law. The European Union's perspective is that AI should… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Reason 1 why Bard is not yet in EU. Understanding how AI makes decisions is crucial. The EU's proposed regulations emphasize this, but it's a tough task for Large Language Models (LLMs). Their complex decision-making process isn't easily interpretable, making full transparency a… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

I'm now joining the #NISOPlus23 session: "Making the business case for investing in metadata" with Josh Brown, Heather Kotula, Michelle Urberg, & Julia McDonell

The opportunity costs of poor metadata re-use - Josh Brown from @MoreBrains_Coop
PIDs are keystone metadata! - Powering Reuse, Automation, Aggregation & Analysis
#metadata #NISOPlus23
NOT reusing #metadata has costs in money, time and knock-on effects - rekeying of metadata is essentially unnecessary duplication of effort across sectors, institutions and individuals! #NISOPlus23

Glad to hear @MathiasCormann, @OECD Secretary-General and @NadiaCalvino, digital minster of Spain stressing the need for a "human-centric #DigitalTransformation" during the opening session of the Digital Ministerial in the Canary Islands. #OECDdigital oecd-events.org/digital-minist…
The Digital Minister of Ukraine is addressing the #OECDdigital conference via prerecorded video (from the "world capital of freedom"). He described how Ukraine set out to be a "digital tiger" and had to build a "digital war machine". #eGovernment Fighting #RussianBarbarians.
Glad to hear the rep from the European Union state that that governments should not seek to "control" technology but to foster abd apply it. He also mentioned that tomorrow in Brussels, the European Union wl sign a declaration of "digital rights". Could be helpful. @ViolaRoberto

Databricks has added new data warehousing, data governance, data sharing, machine learning and data engineering capabilities to its Databricks Lakehouse Platform
databricks.com/company/newsro…
My POV (1/3): Data governance is fundamentally important for accelerated business intelligence and regulatory compliance. Our research shows the more #datacatalog users an organization has, the greater trust it has in its data ventanaresearch.com/press-release/…
My POV (2/3): Data lineage in Unity Catalog and secure data sharing with Cleanrooms are significant additions to @databricks#datagovernance capabilities. Meanwhile Delta Live Tables provides a declarative approach to building data pipelines.

🔴 LIVE: @rachelsibande joins @CLEARAA1's Talitha Hlaka, @The_DSD's Dez Jason, and @giz_gmbh #FAIRForward's Mark Irura as they discuss #ResponsibleDataUse for #DataGovernance and #MEL in times of unprecedented volumes of #DigitalData and new #DataLaws 👉 crs-org.zoom.us/j/81523617808
Dez Jason kicks things off by sharing @MERLTech's #ResponsibleData in #MonitoringAndEvaluation (#RDiME) #ME and #data life cycles, at every stage of which responsible #DataGovernance is considered key: im-portal.org/help-library/r…
Mark Irura notes the importance of using #data to improve governance but he emphasizes that communities need to know how their data is being used so they can protect their #privacy.

However, choosing not to share your data should NOT prevent you from participating in government!

Modern #data platforms are emerging as the answer to the holy grail: creating a truly data-driven organization. With this, “how” we use data has changed.

Many vendors today brand themselves as the be-all and end-all... but this isn’t true. 🙅
It’s impossible to work today with a single modern data platform from one vendor! A modern #data platform is a collection of tools and processes. 🧰

In this thread, I’ll break down what a modern data platform means in practice today. 2/n
Today, data platforms have basic building blocks that look something like this. 👇 3/n

Today, on #InternationalWomensDay I'd like to celebrate 10 amazing academics who've changed the fields of #STS #STEM and social sciences, and made significant impact on my own research. Follow them, come work with them, read and cite their work! #WomensDay #AcademicTwitter
Alondra Nelson @alondra is the first #STS scholar to have become a science advisor to the President of the United States. Prof. Nelson is recognized for her pioneering studies of #genetics #race and #technology and for years she's worked to support social sciences in the US.
Shoshana Zuboff @shoshanazuboff. Everyone's read The Age of Surveillance Capitalism. It is in Prof. Zuboff's terms that we all discuss #BigTech and the privacy crisis that challenges our democratic institutions. #SurveillanceCapitalism

How did the #pandemic unfold for those who exist at the margins of the society? Watch this space for conversations @so_radhikal has had while researching what pandemic surveillance looks like for marginalised communities in India, as designed by Harmeet Rahal. #bodiesanddata
In this first vignette, @pointofview's Director Bishakha Datta highlights how technology has aided the gendered gaze of surveillance through this lockdown for various marginalised groups. #bodiesanddata #datagovernance A woman holding a phone wit...A hand is reaching towards ...There is a phone lying on t...Two hands are changing the ...

Well, this is an astonishingly poor effort from @royalsociety; a #DataGovernance "explainer" that tips its hand by its examples (i.e. health data) but not once in 28 pages mentions significant bodies like @HRA_Latest, for #ResearchEthics approval, or #CAG!

While there are a whole bunch of players in what is an increasingly crowded/confused/confusing landscape, to miss out two of the key *statutory* #governance bodies seems more than a little remiss 🤦🏻‍♂️
If you are interested, and want to dig a bit deeper into the (#regulatory, not just #governance) #landscape around #health #data in particular, I recommend @EleHrwch & @claumartinezv's map:

1. My new research discussion paper (bit.ly/2A0KuQm) outlines six key #governance challenges emerging from #energy #digitalization - first up is #datagovernance! @exeterepg
2. #datagovernance is the subject of a lot of current #policy work - issue awareness is high and broad support is reported for sector initiatives by e.g. @beisgovuk @EnergySysCat @ofgem @cse_bristol @SustainFirst. Report findings raise a few areas for further discussion, e.g.:
3. Where do principles-based approaches work well and where might new policy need enforcement/'teeth'?
Where are 'hard' barriers to data openness written into existing codes/licenses and how can we fix this? What is the optimal granularity for a national asset register?

I am incredibly relieved to see mainstream coverage of MiDAS and other automation failures both banal and shocking that occur under the guise of procurement and modernization while fundamentally altering the fabric of the social safety net absent public review. h/t @PopTechWorks
The civil and human rights implications of such systems are extensive. In other countries, where data integration is happening more readily at the national level, there are robust debates about the digital welfare state. openglobalrights.org/digital-welfar…
We have a moment here to engage critically with the problem framing that leads to automated systems. While civil servants have good intentions, the structural logic that leads to deploying descriptive data for prediction and automation is about austerity, not public interest.
