I might verbatim copy ARIA's assessment criteria into my Date Me Doc...

we expect proposals to spike against our criteria and have different strengths and weaknesses. Final selection is based on an assessment of the programme portfolio as a whole, its alignment with the overall programme goals and objectives and the diversity of applicants across the programme.

Yesterday, the EU Commission officially endorsed pursuing a CERN for AI. Today, CFG publishes our blueprint for how it should be structured, diving deep into research, governance and legal structure, focus areas and more.

Interesting workshop on solar radiation modification by my climate colleagues. Nice parallels to AI policy, with the most important action being *lowering uncertainty*, eg: -studying risks/effectiveness -monitoring deployment -foresight and crisis planning #cfgFlagship

ICFG is rebranding! We are now CFG! I think our new brand & website is pretty swish, feedback welcome :D Also... we finally have a twitter! Give it a follow!

I got my Belgian Residence ID and official work Business card 😎 But the circle of life means making room for newcomers, so I finally have to depart with my beloved tesco club card (et al), you served me well, child 🫡.

The ICFG slack is lacking in custom emotes/reacts, and I've made it my mission to solve this critical problem. I am seeking input on what people's favourite reacts and emojis are.

I love that Claude can turn event emails into icals that I can actually use and put in my calendar, but it's frustrating that a) event organisers aren't sending icals to begin with b) this doesn't automatically happen with gemini.
