This particular follow-up news story doesn't seem to have been noticed outside of Canada. Though the original incident was a global news story. What causes someone to do something so tragic in a small, remote community? Apparently, it might have been ChatGPT. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

#Regulation is not all there is to #AI governance. This is why I focus on the role of #STI policy in governing AI in my latest article and trace the history of the so-called “CERN for AI” – a proposal to organize Europe’s AI research in a #CERN-like ecosystem 👇 link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Die Inflation findet bei den Zugewinnen der AfD zu wenig Beachtung. Wir finden in einer Umfrage vom Sommer 2023, dass mit Sorgen um steigende Preise die Wahrscheinlichkeit AfD zu wählen stark wächst. Bei denen mit den meisten Sorgen (30% der Befragten) ist die AfD stärkste Partei.

There's a deep sense of sadness and loneliness seeing this record shattering graph. November 17, 2023 was the first day in recorded history when the earth's surface was a whole 2°C hotter than pre-industrial times. Yet, there's barely any chatter about this staggering breach.
