There's lots of important messaging in this new guidance from GDS / DSIT on AI, open code and vulnerability risk. In particular: "Private repositories can create a false sense of security" and "Openness can surface issues earlier" www.gov.uk/guidance/ai-...

David Attenborough sparked a childhood wonder for the natural world and deep curiosity for places far from my door. I think I owe him - and fellow travellers in making TV like his - for all the places that curiosity has driven me to since. Happy 100th Birthday to him.

I had some fun with maps! Joined the Price Paid dataset with the EPC register to make a price paid per m² dataset to explore open data and some new tools. Credit to @annapowellsmith.bsky.social who did this nearly a decade ago, I'm just catching up. houseprices.huwdiprose.co.uk

Very excited to hear @nicolefv.bsky.social and Abi Noda have a new book. Accelerate is already a firm favourite. Wonder if there are plans for an audiobook like previous books? I've enjoyed flipping between the paperback as reference and audio when out and about.

Personal data storage is an idea whose time has come: Data Ownership as a conversation changes when data resides primarily with people-governed institutions rather than corporations. blog.muni.town/personal-data-storag…

@alexparsons.bsky.social 👀-ing recent MySociety work referencing AI, you know of any attempts to fine tune an LLM across the whole of Hansard? Having a chat with a bot able to reference the history of a debate or topic feels like one of the few LLM use cases I'd be super interested in playing with

Amid all the UK chat about steel this week I went back to listen to the second half of foreignpolicy.com/podcasts/one... Feel like it's the primer for global steel industry I've been missing in other reports. Tune in about 15 mins in after the Davos segment

foreignpolicy.com

Does Davos Have a Trust Problem?

Plus: The political and economic implications of the Nippon Steel takeover bid.

Henry Story's work on http-sig and decentralised web blows me away. Like here, a vision for browsers and trusted authorities like government collaborating to reduce phishing, increase trust, make EV certs automatic and not a $$$ process. All Open Data, chains of trust medium.com/cybersoton/s...
