A group of settlers just lynched Hamdan Ballal, co director of our film no other land. They beat him and he has injuries in his head and stomach, bleeding. Soldiers invaded the ambulance he called, and took him. No sign of him since.

There's a popular narrative here that says immigrants are destroying Western culture.

I'd like to assert the opposite: immigrants are not only contributing to Western culture, they are often saving parts of it. Let's explore. 🧵

We’re all living through a great enshittening, in which the services that matter to us, that we rely on, are turning into giant piles of s**t. It’s frustrating. It’s demoralising. It’s even terrifying https://t.co/ja2zE6PcYn

🧵 The historic NYT v. @OpenAI lawsuit filed this morning, as broken down by me, an IP and AI lawyer, general counsel, and longtime tech person and enthusiast.

Tl;dr - It's the best case yet alleging that generative AI is copyright infringement. Thread. 👇

And even and interesting idea from former MEP and president of @FEPS_Europe @MJRodriguesEU to update the treaties to include #digitalpolicy and #digitalrights.

[Mathias van Malderghem-Nagy @vm_mathias]

While the final negotiations on the #AIAct were ongoing, interesting conversations organised by the @TheProgressives Group in the #EuropeanParliament Parliament and @FEPS_Europe Europe about building a progressist European vision of the digital age took place.

More broadly, many calls for building a European, open, sovereign and independent tech ecosystem and more creative ways to develop and use technology for the good of society. #strategicautonomy

Today, 6 digital platforms were designated as Gatekeepers under the DMA for 22 core platform services. From now on, they will be under the EU Commission’s supervision to make their services more open for competition and innovation; good news for all of us who use their services!

Many lessons to be learned by #EU Member States in delivering #egoverment services. I really hope that this forward-looking Ukraine rapidly joins the #EU after overcoming the invasion

[Mathias van Malderghem-Nagy @vm_mathias]

Impressive and inspiring presentation by the #Ukraine Deputy Prime Minister Mikhailo Fedorov about how, in spite of a global pandemic and being invaded by #Russia, Ukraine managed to deliver a complete digital transformation of the state to its citizens. #egovernment

The opportunities of #AI are exciting, the risks are concerning. Clearly getting this right is going to be an iterative process that will need important involvement from all, industry, policy-makers, civil society, and everyday citizens. Exciting times.

[Mathias van Malderghem-Nagy @vm_mathias]

Extremely interesting discussions today about #AI and AI policy at #Microsoft in #Brussels with experts from all sides. This kind of fora is essential to advance the conversation with a diverse group of experts about AI use-cases and getting regulation right #AIAct #EU #OpenAI
