RT by @MarietjeSchaake: This week, OpenAI saw its products booed at SXSW, and an embarrassing viral news cycle after its CTO claimed not to know if it had trained its models on YouTube videos.
Both incidents suggest the tide is turning against the world's biggest AI company:

Nergens in DH de nodige vaccinatiegraad: De gemeente en GGD vermoeden dat de felle discussie over de veiligheid en het nut van de coronavaccins twijfel heeft gezaaid onder mensen die een paar jaar geleden nog achter vaccins voor kinderen stonden. ↘️

RT by @MarietjeSchaake: One of the simplest but most useful and appropriate pieces of AI regulation to adopt at the moment is to require model providers to document the training data they used. This is something that the @EU_Commission AI Act gets right … on p.62 of its 272 pages (!).

RT by @MarietjeSchaake: Today’s attack on one of the very few remaining @UNRWA distribution centres in the #GazaStrip comes as food supplies are running out, hunger is widespread and, in some areas, turning into famine.
Every day, we share the coordinates of all our facilities across the Gaza Strip with parties to the conflict. The Israeli Army received the coordinates including of this facility yesterday.
The @UN, its personnel, premises and assets must be protected at all times. Since this war began, attacks against UN facilities, convoys and personnel have become commonplace in blatant disregard to international humanitarian law.
I am calling once again for an independent inquiry into these violations and the need for accountability.
