Transparent? I look forward to Anthropic releasing their datasets, code, and weights.

[Tim Berners-Lee @timberners_lee]

📢 @project_solid will have a new organisational home @ODIHQ - pairing their expertise of the data spectrum with pro-human technology to build a global data infrastructure that stimulates creativity, encourages collaboration and fosters compassion - my original hope for the web.

Many types of #data are used to train #AI models, and many types of data are needed to build, use and monitor AI systems safely and effectively. We've developed a taxonomy to identify the data needed, especially for researchers and policymakers.

@frimelle @HU24EU I'm in Budapest as well, at the #EBDVF2024. Shall we meet :-)

[Mubashara Akhtar @akhtarmubashara]

Super excited that Croissant was accepted as a 🌟spotlight paper at @NeurIPSConf!

Croissant is a community-built vocabulary for ML datasets, making them easily discoverable & usable across tools & platforms.

Huge credit to the entire @MLCommons Croissant community!

The data used to train AI is often spoken about as if it’s a static, singular blob. But it’s not. Nor is it the only important type of data needed to build/use/govern AI systems. I'm working openly with @esimperl on a taxonomy of data for AI here: https://t.co/cpu5u6VLdn

[James Joshua Otto @JamesJoshuaOtto]

This has been so much fun. Writing a miniature podcast musical with @LucyBellSW based on @ms_j_walker's fascinating research, starring the wonderful vocal talents of @JoanneKRogers and @Sam_otto. Coming soon!
