For most of the past 20+ years I've been trying to convince the leaders of nonprofits and foundations that their work is digitally dependent and that they need to understand, govern, and manage their digital resources with the same integrity to mission with which they manage their human and financial
Here's a really good long read that has changed the way I think about #AI and the many, many layers of human input that it needs to be sustained. The system includes vast numbers of contractors hired to "annotate," often for v low wages.

#EU #AI #Bard #Google #GenerativeAI #DataProtection #Privacy #Search: "Google will have to postpone starting its artificial intelligence chatbot Bard in the European Union after its main data regulator in the bloc raised privacy concerns.

The Dublin-based authority is Google's main European data supervisor under the bloc's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
"Google recently informed the Data Protection Commission of its intention to launch Bard in the EU this week," said Deputy Commissioner Graham Doyle.
The watchdog "had not had any detailed briefing nor sight of a data protection impact assessment or any supporting documentation at this point.""
