If AI and facial recognition are used in various aspects of life, the impact of algorithmic bias will be profound. But even more so, if the bias has bad consequences in a sector like the military, the cost is more severe. https://t.co/jOf1OQ9q6a
@Bryanhastweeter@TechPolicyMPhil Thank you, I also think the health sector is primary important. Also, the movement toward online medical care during the pandemic seems a good trend both in terms of efficiency (aging society and increasing health cost is a big issue in Japan) and environment. #techpol20w7
@TechPolicyMPhil Human error is the second leading cause of data breaches (22%). However, even criminal hacking (45%) is not always based on advanced IT knowledge. Adhering simple rules may be more effective to prevent data breaches than latest IT systems. #techpol20w5 https://t.co/kGGrGjj9mo
@TechPolicyMPhil McKinsey's vision for the business of post-COVID is here. Certainly, if these reforms are successful, they will bring significant productivity gains. But at what cost? And what kind of institutions will be needed to accommodate this change? #techpol20w4 https://t.co/BTWdd1DUbG
@TechPolicyMPhil I hope that these controversies provide a smart conclusion that will lead to the development of new technologies and industries (rather than just imposing fines), as Myth 3 in this article states that "antitrust prosecutions are part of how technology grows".
@TechPolicyMPhil This article (https://t.co/qTpQBgb2hp) plainly states that the antitrust case against Big Tech is of a very different nature than older ones against Microsoft and Standard Oil. #techpol20w3
This report by Oxford (https://t.co/Y7sHbic1GY) clearly shows how SNSs are being used for propaganda based on national objectives. They seem to be cleverly exploiting the unique characteristics of each SNS and using them for different purposes. #techpol20w2
Rather than remaining narrowly within the domain of scientific and regulatory disputes, combating misinformation and disinformation have increasingly (?) moved into the domains of national and international politics #techpol20w2 https://t.co/SQ8gjlctk0
@TechPolicyMPhil Although XPRIZE AVATAR started in 2018, this project really matches the current situation. However, it’s still uncertain if this project be a savior for travel companies and travelers within a limited time scale. https://t.co/WjhULTVlIF
