@alex_prompter Thanks @alex_prompter for highlighting our research!

[Stanford HAI @StanfordHAI]

The AI boom poses new challenges for privacy. What kinds of risks do we face and what can we do about it? @StanfordHAI fellow @kingjen describes the main findings from a recent white paper: https://t.co/1g8sFJOs8v

@MarietjeSchaake Thank you @MarietjeSchaake ! You gave an exemplary talk today.

@nrmarda @mozilla Congrats Nik! 🥳🎉

@sorch1 Sorry. Welcome to parenthood. It's . . . a thing.

New paper alert! @acmeinhardt and I lay out a set of provocations regarding the impact of existing data privacy regulations in the US and EU on artificial intelligence. Our motivating question: can we have both data privacy and AI?

[Stanford HAI @StanfordHAI]

New white paper: What challenges do AI pose to our data privacy? Will existing regulations protect us? @StanfordHAI’s @kingjen and @acmeinhardt tackle these questions – arguing that existing laws in the EU and the US aren’t enough to prevent privacy harms. https://t.co/hskFwh3WUI

Bay area @Apple stores are experiencing a rash of thefts. But I find it impossible to believe that the floor models at Apple stores have no form of bricking or tracking mechanism. The company makes AirTags, after all! Or do they consider floor models disposable?

Vacaville police arrested at least two men Thursday in connection with a theft at the Berkeley Apple Store earlier that afternoon, authorities report. MORE: https://t.co/7RoiaNQPED

@privacypen Did you also have a pet dragon?

@alexhanna This is a company that in the very early days used to require prospects to report their SAT scores!

RED ALERT: Buried in the House intelligence committee’s Section 702 “reform” bill, which is schedule for a floor vote as soon as tomorrow, is the biggest expansion of surveillance inside the United States since the Patriot Act. 1/11

@WillRinehart They don't have to be. @PamelaSamuelson's work on this issue remains both relevant and prescient: https://t.co/SMHvBIdq81

I'm excited to share this press release from GW Law School announcing our new GW Center for Law & Technology. Through the Center, we're building out our privacy and tech curriculum and activities, including a new JD concentration in privacy/tech and more https://t.co/4Hgi14ze52

This article👇was the first I'd heard of using one-off GPS tracking to pursue stolen vehicles (vs. pursuit, which several bay area cities prohibit due to the risk of harm to the public). It requires decent aim and presence at the scene, but better from a surveillance perspective?

[The Berkeley Scanner @BerkeleyScanner]

Berkeley police arrested teenage suspects in a stolen car earlier this month with the help of a GPS tracker that's been touted as a safer alternative to police pursuits. Auto thefts in Berkeley are up 64% over last year at this time. MORE: https://t.co/aeNMkA0QKq

I was just turned away from an announced press conference with elected @AlamedaCountyDA Pamela Price. Every other member of the media who came was let in without any checking of credentials. @FACoalition @rcfp @SPJ_NorCal

🚨 New preprint on sensitive disclosure behaviors in #LLM-based chatbots (e.g., #chatgpt)

We found users are constantly juggling between privacy, utility, and convenience, affected by flawed mental models and dark patterns. #privacy #hci #ai

Debate over the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) has been driven by emotion without a path forward.

@‌KingJen and I examine KOSA and suggest how to overcome the stalemate for @‌techpolicypress.

Here’s the bottom line. 🧵 1/9
