Byl vůbec prvním českým šéfem kabinetu eurokomisaře, nejvíc se v Komisi prý potkával s nočním vrátným a do médiích prakticky nemluví. Pro @ZdenTra a Bruselské chlebíčky ale udělal @danbraun79 výjimku a přiblížil svou (ex)práci a zákulisí fungování Komise👇

The first assessment of what happened during #EUelections along four major threats: disinformation, foreign interference, AI misuse, and cybersecurity risks
👇
2024 European elections: Insights into information threats https://t.co/cwoGIhpkLd
4️⃣ #Cybersecurity: some DDoS attacks from #Kremlin-affiliated hacktivist networks, but not consequential.
This may be a sign of attention-grabbing tactics without necessarily the primary intention of bringing down the infrastructure itself.
@EDMO_EUI 3️⃣ #AI: the use of #deepfakes and #shallowfakes was not overwhelming, but we saw how fast these operations can scale.
Civil society also reported cases where political parties used AI unlabelled.
@EDMO_EUI 2️⃣ Foreign interference: we have noted several operations from #Kremlin-affiliated groups.
And their tactics, techniques and procedures are well-known: #fake engagement, #AI, hacking media websites, etc. For example, "Doppelganger."
1️⃣ #Disinformation: research by @EDMO_EUI shows there was an increase in EU-related disinformation during the electoral campaign from 6-15%.
Most false narratives were about #Ukraine, climate and migration.
Happy to be in #Riga 🇱🇻 to give a 1⃣st analysis of the #disinformation situation during the #EUelections2024 👇🧵
Disinformation spread every day, looking at June elections is case in point.
During my #DemocracyTour I visited many 🇪🇺 states so we were prepared.
I call for ending the spiral of violence and suffering of all, Palestinians and Israelis.
I sincerely hope that hostages will be reunited with their loved ones as soon as possible.
(2/2)
07/10 one year after the terrorist attacks against #Israel, I condemn again #Hamas’ actions & antisemitic incidents committed also in 🇪🇺.
Israel has the right to defend itself, within the limits of international law.

Impressed by #Hollywoodgate documentary & its brave team.
Ibrahim Nash'at & Adel Safi risked their lives to show the Taliban from the inside.
They are in Brussels with producer Shane Boris to discuss the urgent responsibility to support Afghan people & investigative journalism.
‼️ 4th report by online platforms on combating the spread of #disinformation & protecting 🇪🇺 election integrity.
I expect signatories of the Code to move swiftly with its conversion into a Code of Conduct under the #DigitalServicesAct.

In 3 weeks @VeraJourova will take stock of what happened around 🇪🇺 elections in terms of information manipulation, cyberattacks and use of #ArtificialIntelligence + provide recommendations.
⏱️ stay tuned
After the EU elections, the national ones are to watch. We should not underestimate the threat, nor work still ahead of us.
Data indicates 🇷🇺 didn’t manage to strongly interfere w/ 🇪🇺 debate. Yet we saw incidents e.g. in 🇫🇷,🇵🇱 &🇩🇪. We continue analysing. Stay tuned!
#EUDaysLund
Convergence on international rules for responsible #AI driven by 🇪🇺.
An important step to enable more investments 💶 and more application of AI 🤖 in our economies.
