😅 My “a dozen interns on cocaine” metaphor for LLMs made Beth Noveck laugh enough that she made it into the title of this interview. I'm happy that one of my intellectual self-defense tips against AI gets shared more broadly. More details about it in a thread.

There is way more in this interview than that metaphor, like difficulties in funding for #DigitalCommons and how I believe LLMs can and cannot be useful to #RulesAsCode.
A Dozen Interns on Cocaine: What One of the Longest-Running Civic Tech Projects Reveals About AI in Government

What happens when governments rely on systems that sound right instead of being right? Drawing on OpenFisca’s spread from France to governments across Europe, Africa, and Oceania, Beth Simone Noveck’s interview with Matti Schneider makes the case for public infrastructure that computes the law, as well as the risks of sidelining it as generative AI scales globally.

This illustrates once more how #OpenSource in #RulesAsCode can yield value beyond what was initially planned: from the initial use case of advising Members of Parliament on the budget of the State to supporting broader democratic debate with data!

Wearing my @openfisca Association hat however, I am only proud that another international institution after OECD, @dpgalliance and the G7 recognises further the impact, relevance and uniqueness of OpenFisca for #RulesAsCode. I hope that this direct recognition by @EUCommission will also provide more stable support than the national one that tends to vary often as the political context changes 💪

Onwards! <§>

Until November, solutions were only listed through aggregation of national portals. In the last quarter, the @European Commission decided to expand sourcing by identifying “standout solutions” that go way beyond national usage. We are proud to be part of the first cohort to be directly listed as a solution for EU-wide (and beyond!) interoperability for #RulesAsCode, alongside other widely recognised #DigitalCommons such as @decidim and @consuldemocracy.

Mit "Law as Code" zum proaktiven, fairen und effizienten Staat? Gesetze sind oft in komplexen, schwer verständlichen Texten formuliert, die für Laien und sogar Fachleute schwierig zu interpretieren sind. Die Umsetzung von neuen Gesetzen in (digitale) Verwaltungsprozesse passiert oft manuell und ist langwierig. Mit #LawAsCode oder #RulesAsCode können Gesetze und Vorschriften in eine maschinenlesbare Form gebracht werden, die von Computern verarbeitet werden kann.
