Just did a quick history and writeup of the history of #Switzerland's co-operation with the US, including the recent incidents with #Protonmail, compromising the #data of #activists who thought they were paying for privacy and #cybersecurity. Everyone says the Swiss have a great privacy protection, but I've always disagreed, it is a paper tiger of privacy that rubber stamps US requests. https://areebyasir.com/protonmails-history-of-swiss-and-us-government-compliance/

In a survey of 25 countries, the United States was the only county in which more adults describe the morality of their compatriots as bad than good. 53% of respondents said that the morality and ethics of other people in their country is either somewhat or very bad. Since this is a new question for Pew Research, the team says they don't know whether this is a long-held view or something new. A million miles away in sentiment, but just kilometres away geographically, 92% of Canadians think other Canadians are either very good or somewhat good. https://flip.it/bFGW8O #USNews #CanadianNews #Morality #Data

Have you ever worked anywhere that actually encrypted sensitive information at a column/field/table level? Or did your credit card/loan/insurance/etc processing service tick the “encryption at rest” checkbox and move on? #data

#palantir #nhs #uk #data #partition #datamining #masssurveillance #healthcare #publicservice #personaldata #scraping #datascraper #unite Dear friends, I just signed the petition "Stop Palantir taking over our public services!" and wanted to ask if you could add your name too. This campaign means a lot to me and the more support we can get behind it, the better chance we have of succeeding. You can read more and sign the petition here: https://you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/stop-palantir-taking-over-our-public-services?share=d486bac1-7718-466b-9dd8-c9b0d06f5946&source=email&utm_campaign=blast145782&utm_medium=socialshare&utm_source=email Thank you! P.S. Can you also take a moment to share the petition with others? It's really easy – all you need to do is forward this email or share this link on Facebook or Twitter: https://you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/stop-palantir-taking-over-our-public-services?share=d486bac1-7718-466b-9dd8-c9b0d06f5946&source=email&utm_campaign=blast145782&utm_medium=socialshare&utm_source=email

Tiedekulmassa oli vähän hemmetin valaiseva keskustelu tietojemme käsittelystä, datakeskuksista, tekoälystä, mikrosiruista, politiikasta, riippuvuuksista ja omavaraisuudesta. Etsi Tiedekulma-podcast. (En linkitä ruotsalaisperäiseen suoratoistopalveluun, johon Tiedekulma jostain syystä itse linkittää.) #Tiedekulma #data

AI field is still young and there are no established best practices. Here are some guidelines of my own though: 1. Understand the LLM psychology. Know that they read even mark-up and code loaded with meaning. A JSON describing a sound of a bark timestamped 01:00 is a dog barking at night for an LLM. Telling a model to draw a room without an elephant makes an elephant appear on a poster. Have empathy for the machine. 2. Use XML-like elements to structure your inputs and outputs, because it's vastly better for multi-line strings than e.g. JSON strings, reduces the need for escaping. It will later allow you to easily parse your instruction templates from the logs and refine this data further, allows easily leaving out all pre- and postample which LLMs sometimes like to emit, and a missing from the output means the response was cut off. 3. Avoid the need to prevent subverting your LLM agents. Agents shouldn't have more rights than your users, and shouldn't work against the interests of your users. Only as a last resort and after having made the consequence of LLM subversion as negligible as possible, you should consider adding guardrails. 4. Use hybrid indexes for your data, LLM managed metadata and LLM generated queries to both traditional and vector indices. When an LLM generates your index metadata, you know the semantics and heuristics for it. If it's human-created, you don't necessarily have explicit documentation for what the index fields mean. For vector indices you need to embed reference queries or something similar, rather than indexing raw chunks. 5. It's all about data. Forget the focus on AI architectures and even revenue. Everything else works out if you have a position in the data flows in the grand scheme of things. 6. Data quality is not the same as data fidelity. Humans aren't the gold standard, and neither is the real world. Photorealism for simulations isn't the goal. Data quality is generally the utility of the data for training models or for augmenting inference. This means that its utility is the density of true and usable knowledge and represented transferrable skills. I am still open for new challenges. I am an #AI generalist with over 25 years of experience from a wide variety of domains, looking to work remotely from Spain. I am passionate about #PhysicalAI and #data.

The real money in #AI isn't in chatbots or anything of the sort. That will be a low percentage of the usage. The main usage is #data processing. From climate models to optimising factory processes. Just imagine how much #bigpharma can make processing unimaginable amounts of medical data to produce tailored meds. Everything can be optimised. THAT is where the big money is. THAT is also why it has to be #selfhosted rather than letting #bigtech run and control it. AI will run the world.

Last month, we released Rx Inspector, a groundbreaking tool that lets you find the factories where your generic drugs were manufactured. See the never-before-released data that ties everything together. https://www.propublica.org/article/rx-inspector-generic-drugs-data?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=mastodon-post #Health #Medicine #Data #Research #FDA #Drugs #Science #Journalism

Rx Inspector, our free, searchable tool, allows you to look up where your generic prescription drug was made. From patients and doctors to researchers, it is already reshaping how people make decisions. “This is a godsend,” one professor told us. https://www.propublica.org/article/rx-inspector-reshaping-decisions-generic-drugs?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=mastodon-post #Research #Data #Science #Medicine #Pharmacy #Journalism #Drugs

在 Mapping Africa: Visualizing Knowledge and Communities 線上分享中,Wiki In Africa 邀請來賓們分享他們在各種地圖專案中的實務經驗,這些專案把地理空間資料、 #OpenStreetMap 與 #Wikidata、 #Wikipedia、 Wikimedia Commons 等維基媒體計畫串聯起來。 透過社群分享可以看到非洲各地的社群如何運用地圖來記錄在地知識、回應永續與氣候挑戰,並增加非洲的知識在全球視野中的影響力。 目前線上分享的影片已經上線,歡迎到 Youtube 上觀看:https://www.youtube.com/live/czndc9Ekzb8 目前 Wikidata Taiwan 與 OpenStreetMap台灣 不定期都會舉辦街景踏察團,透過實地踏查與街景拍攝,再搭配工作坊來改善臺灣開源地圖資訊、開放授權圖片以及結構化資訊等開放資料基礎建設。 #維基數據 #維基資料 #data #Opendata #資料 #開放資料 #非洲 #Africa #Uganda #烏干達

OSM scraping: An #OpenStreetMap-themed account on LinkedIn is calling on journalists to investigate a surge in what seems to be coordinated #scraping from hundreds of thousands of IP addresses, suspected to be linked to #AI #data collection.

It looks like Mauna Loa Observatory data is down. Is this a technical glitch, or an intentional attack by the science denying disgrace to humanity currently in the White House? It looks like no new data since Dec. 31st. https://keelingcurve.ucsd.edu/ https://www.co2.earth/daily-co2 #co2 #ClimateCrisis #ClimateChange #science #data #sabotage #WarOnScience #PublicData #MaunaLoa
