The Canton of Ticino is introducing a secure, in-house AI translation system powered by Apertus, Switzerland’s open-source large language model developed by EPFL, ETH Zürich and CSCS.
By keeping both data and infrastructure local, the system addresses privacy concerns around sensitive documents while maintaining strong translation performance.
An example of how public institutions can adopt AI while staying in control of their tools and data.

Anyone else heading to @FediVariety's "Nodes on a Web: The Fediverse in/for Public Institutions" in Amsterdam tomorrow?

I'll be joining on behalf of @Bibliothecaris and I'm really looking forward to learning how other public organizations are finding their place in the #Fediverse.

"Aus der Verwaltung für die Verwaltung"

Es ist mir eine Herzensangelegenheit, dazu beizutragen, dass die öffentliche Verwaltung leistungs- und veränderungsfähig bleibt. Es geht um Menschen, auch im Digitalen: daher bilden Kommunikation, Partizipation und Vertrauen die Grundlage für meine Arbeit als Berater in der Digitalen Transformation.

#photography business: California public agencies carry a 3% DVBE participation goal on state contracts. A DVBE-certified commercial photographer isn't just a vendor — they're a direct path to satisfying that requirement. Most clients don't connect those dots until you connect them. #DVBE #PublicSector #PhotographyBusiness

All 100 spots are claimed now. 1.5 weeks to go – and the demand for our upcoming Berlin #publicSector meetup has been significant. No, there won’t be any streaming. Yes, we will record the talks. Waiting list here: www.meetup.com/offentliches... The poster design is with the printer now, too.
