Bertrand du Marais (CNIL), Stephen Almond (ICO), Des Hogan (DPC) discuss “Consent or Pay” models at #GPS25. Given the clear overlap with competition concerns (pricing!), yesterday’s DMA enforcement actions against Apple and Meta provide the ideal backdrop. @iapp.bsky.social #privacy #dataprotection

A powerful reality check delivered by @garymarcus.bsky.social - Generative AI will never evolve into AGI and people have wildly overestimated productivity gains from LLMs. We possibly need to integrate symbolic AI (to reach neuro-symbolic AI) and world models #nextai #ai

@tarekbesold.bsky.social on the Unthinkable panel at #nextai : there seems to be a generational disconnect in terms of attribution (for public works online) and #explainability. Not necessarily due to a new utilitarianism (or lack of respect) but perhaps assuming collective ownership (and trust) #ai

Brilliant Martina Larkin on the Humanity Paradox in the context of #AI: The cold pursuit of labour efficiency has a social cost, as does chasing engagement metrics in digital media.

We should instead enhance what makes us human. Human agency is a must. #nextai

Eso mismo, ahora que ha salido la opinión del #EDPB, aquí cubrimos hace unos días el contexto de partida con @jgarciaherrero.bsky.social - ¿Contienen datos personales los modelos fundacionales de IA generativa? ¿Cómo se aplica entonces el #RGPD? En @mastersofprivacy.bsky.social #protecciondedatos

Here’s a better-quality summary of the parallel timelines of #Meta and #publishers in their quest for a valid legal basis that can support #DigitalAdvertising as a business model. As previously shared on @mastersofprivacy.bsky.social - new EDPB "Consent or Pay" guidelines are expected any time now

What a gigantic piece of plastic Las Vegas is. Never for me (except for the desert, mountains, outskirts). And ok I did go through the Elvis wedding once - nothing else seemed appealing enough I guess
