We live in a time increasingly resembling the second half of the 1930s. I couldn't live with myself with the knowledge I didn't do more to stop another Hitler. In light of the Republican wavering and in memory of Navalny I will give $100 towards FPV drones for Ukr for every RT.

#AI Act: Where are we at? The 🇪🇸 presidency finished fine-tuning the articles with the EU Parliament before Christmas, while the negotiations on the recitals will resume on Monday under the 🇧🇪 presidency. However, potential opposition to the deal is getting organised. 1/6

[Axel Voss MdEP @AxelVossMdEP]

@EPPGroup But let’s be clear: we tried to make the best out of an unworkable approach to #AI.

We are still NOT convinced that this is the right way to make sure Europe stays competitive in AI. Innovation will still take place elsewhere.

Here, we missed our shot.

#AI Act trilogue: A small thread on where things landed on foundation models and governance. Take it with a pinch of salt, as the agreement is provisional, and access to sources is still limited as the meeting is ongoing. #AIAct

[Luca Bertuzzi @BertuzLuca]

Today is D-day for the #AI Act. There is a lot of pressure to reach an agreement, and the stakes are very high. I have little doubt some sort of deal will be found, but there are several pitfalls to watch out for and constraints on all sides. A 🧵 on what you need to know. 1/12

G7 Leaders issued the Statement on Hiroshima AI Process, welcoming the Hiroshima Process International Guiding Principles and the Hiroshima Process Code of Conduct for organizations developing advanced AI systems. We continue to work for international rulemaking of generative AI.

ICYMI: last week, the EU Commission quietly published the stakeholder consultation on the G7 Guiding Principles on Artificial Intelligence, with what seems to be an updated version of the 11 principles. The deadline for submitting the input is this Friday.

Setkání se studenty a absolventy prestižní @collegeofeurope v belgických Bruggách mě přesvědčilo, že mladým lidem není budoucnost Evropy vůbec lhostejná. Je potřeba, aby Česko podporovalo aktivní mladé lidi, kteří chtějí reprezentovat naši zemi v mezinárodních institucích.
