Dai container di Gioia Tauro al progetto del porto crocieristico di Fiumicino, i porti italiani si stanno progressivamente inserendo in quella che appare sempre più come una vera e propria filiera globale della guerra. Non si tratta soltanto di commercio civile o turismo, ma di un sistema logistico complesso, in cui merci e infrastrutture si intrecciano con dinamiche geopolitiche
Does the TA community need to reflect on its role in assessing the impacts and repercussions of weapons technology?
The guest editors of the current special topic on future warfare, argue that TA cannot stand aside and ignore the challenges posed by rapid change in international relations.

echt informatives WILLKOMMEN im Fediversen :) erfreut uns hier sehr. Hier seid Ihr auf den richtigen Seiten ohne verfälschenden Algorithem in der Hand weniger #TechBros zumeist aus den usA. Jetzt fehlt noch ein informatives und bildendes #PassivHausSpiel um möglichst spielerisch mehr von den vielen Vorteilen vom #Passivhaus zu überzeugen. ... per #DualUse spielen , lernen, informieren um zum äußerst energie effizienten und klimafreundlichen Gebäude mehr Anregungen zu bekommen und neben dem Passive House Plannimg Package ( #PHPP ) und dem Manufacturing Energy Evaluation Tool ( #MEET ) kommt man noch besser zum nachhaltigerem #ÖkoPassivHaus ==b

Project Glasswing이 프런티어 AI의 사이버 역량을 단순한 마케팅이 아닌 실질적 기술과 책임 있는 범위 설정이 있는 듀얼유즈 인프라로 다루는 새로운 단계의 신호라는 평가를 담고 있다. AI 사이버 방어와 관련한 중요한 기술적 흐름을 시사한다.
Project Glasswing is not just marketing puffery -- the technical details and responsible scoping are substantive. It signals a new phase where frontier AI cyber capability is treated as dual-use infra requiring coordinated defense. Skepticism is healthy (especially on motives and
Military force or the threat thereof is increasingly shaping international relations – and technology plays a key role in this. The current TATuP Special topic examines how TA can address this development.

“We are not against pen knives in principle”, says peer, “…but we want manufacturers to take steps to prevent them being used to cause harm.”

To “create” a chatbot or model that can “encourage” crime would be an offense punishable by 5 years imprisonment under amendments voted through (203 to 148) by the UK House of Lords.
This follows recommendations from the Center for Countering Digital Hate.
The imprecision in these proposals is appalling. Chatbots and language models can be goaded into saying bad things. When they’re used by billions of people, even the most cautious developers cannot exclude that risk. Criminalizing their development based on whether they generate any proscribed content (per sec. 1) is a garish attack on fundamental research and consumer technology.
Governments can uplevel AI safety in many ways, some of which are represented in this bill. But this kind of theatrical overreach is setting back meaningful reform.
