Sovereign Australia AI - an interesting project in Australia. I've not been able to get in touch with them yet, and they're quite new, but everything on the site looks great to me.

This is the kind of thing all countries need to be supporting. #auspol #sdg #ethicalai

Europe is betting big on open science and collaboration.

In 2026–2027, Horizon Europe will put €14 billion into research that matters:

🌱 Clean tech for real climate action
🧠 Ethical AI and better healthcare
💡 Support for startups and innovators

Participation is simpler, talent is welcome everywhere.

Science for people. Progress we share.

Here's how: https://link.europa.eu/wVttRj

The handwritten message in blue ink reads: "Great ideas start with great science, and we are determined to support both." The bottom right corner features the logo of the European Commission.

@EUCommission Oxymoron of the day: "Ethical AI".

Please do better!

I am an EU supporter in a EEA land full of Eurosceptics.

Please STOP making my life harder by pushing out nonsense such as #chatcontrol #digitalomnibus and #ethicalAI

How can I convince people of my adopted country of the usefulness of the EU when I find myself struggling more and more to convince myself.

We need rules of the road. I used this analogy at the #WebSummit to challenge the tech industry. AI must be designed and deployed with a human-centred approach—fostering innovation while explicitly protecting human rights, democracy, and the rule of law. Oversight is essential. #AI #EthicalAI

🚧 Gavin Newsom Vetoes Bill to Protect Kids From Predatory AI

「 Newsom argued that the bill stood to impose “such broad restrictions on the use of conversational AI tools that it may unintentionally lead to a total ban on the use of these products by minors.” 」

Big News! The completely #opensource#LLM#Apertus 🇨🇭 has been released today:

📰 https://www.swisscom.ch/en/about/news/2025/09/02-apertus.html

🤝 The model supports over 1000 languages [EDIT: an earlier version claimed over 1800] and respects opt-out consent of data owners.

▶ This is great for #publicAI and #transparentAI. If you want to test it for yourself, head over to: https://publicai.co/

🤗 And if you want to download weights, datasets & FULL TRAINING DETAILS, you can find them here:
https://huggingface.co/collections/swiss-ai/apertus-llm-68b699e65415c231ace3b059

🔧 Tech report: https://huggingface.co/swiss-ai/Apertus-70B-2509/blob/main/Apertus_Tech_Report.pdf

After #Teuken7b and #Olmo2, Apertus is the next big jump in capabilities and performance of #FOSS #LLMs, while also improving #epistemicresilience and #epistemicautonomy with its multilingual approach.

I believe that especially for sensitive areas like #education, #healthcare, or #academia, there is no alternative to fully open #AI models. Everybody should start building upon them and improving them.

Denmark 🇩🇰 just passed a groundbreaking law: citizens now own the copyright to their own face, voice, and body.

This is a major win against AI deepfakes and unauthorized digital identity use. The digital self is officially personal property! 💥

Holy shit. Coles is contracting Palantir, yes that Palantir, to "optimise their workforce" https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-02-09/coles-just-hired-us-defence-contractor-palantir/103443504

@Joshsharp Palantir’s history with surveillance and controversial government contracts suggests a deeper issue. Are we comfortable with our shopping habits being analyzed by a firm known for aiding in deportations and policing?
This move isn’t just about data; it’s about trust. Coles is integrating Palantir’s AI to optimize its workforce and operations, but at what cost to employee privacy and consumer transparency?
