In our report Rethinking data, we lay out four cross-cutting interventions which have the potential to reshape our digital ecosystem:

1. Transforming infrastructure into open and interoperable ecosystems.
2. Reclaiming control of data from dominant companies.
3. Rebalancing the centres of power with new (non-commercial) institutions.
4. Ensuring public participation as an essential component of technology policymaking.

Continuiamo a stare vicini, con la preghiera e con il sostegno concreto, alle popolazioni terremotate in #Siria e #Turchia. E non dimentichiamo la martoriata #Ucraina: che il Signore apra vie di pace e dia ai responsabili il coraggio di percorrerle. #PreghiamoInsieme

@pluralistic reminds us that the "Luddites" were a group of people demanding human rights and the means to work to sustain themselves and their families. But history it written by the winners, the Luddites lost, and their detractors have made the meaning of the name to be "opposition to scientific and technological progress." But smashing the steam powered looms that robbed them of their livelihood "was their strategy, not their goal." With AI getting more and more powerful by the month, and people losing their jobs en-masse as a direct result, we are about to see a repeat this chapter of history.

Gimbe: “Con l’autonomia differenziata colpo di grazia al Ssn”
La Fondazione ha diramato un approfondito rapporto su come si è arrivati a questo punto e soprattutto su quali potrebbero essere le conseguenze per la sanità di un processo di progressiva frammentazione regionale delle regole e delle competenze.
Il testo all’esame del Cdm è scritto in modo tale da “blindare” l’autonomia differenziata, facendone “un affaire tra Governo e Regioni esautorando il Parlamento”...
