Sāku saprast EM priekšlikumu publisko iepirkumos sekot MI lēmumam. Varbūt atradīs arī rezerves budžetā 👌🏻

Hārvijs ir ok, ir arī citi. Viņi primāri aizvieto mazāk kvalificēto darba spēku, kas darīja admin darbu - tulko dokumentus, analizē, organizē. Tagad kolēģe 22 pielikumus prasībai trijās valodās izanalizē 5 minūtēs, var jebkurā ieskatīties latviski. Par pielikumu sarakstu nemaz nerunājot.

Lai gan piekrītu padomam, mums ar kolēģiem (valsts un iepirkumu advokātiem) sākusies konceptuāla diskusija par robotu kariem. MI raksta projektu, ar MI to vērtē, ar MI arī revidēs. Šķiet absurdi, bet ļoti labi izgaismo lielāku transformāciju publiskā sektora atklātībā un sarežģītībā.

Right after the invasion a Dutch colleague of mine came to say they were sorry and tried to speak to me in Russian which they learned back in school.

THREAD: I got laid off from NYMag/Vulture after 14 years. The family lost 75% of income + medical. Now mzs.press bookstore, once a side project. is do-or-die for Judith & I. I feel weird telling you this because others are doing much worse. But if you could like or share this, we'd be so grateful!

This week’s graph highlights that media self-censorship is not merely a by-product of government censorship efforts but can persist independently, due at least in part to sustained harassment of journalists.

Kaut kā pārāk pieklājīgi. Pasūtītājs izdomāja, ka klients atsauc piedāvājumu, jo pajautāja, vai tiešām normatīvie akti tam piešķir tiesības pieprasīt konkrētu infoemāciju piedāvājuma pārbaudei.

Holding the line on the EU carbon border adjustment mechanism Exempting fertilisers from CBAM would achieve little while risking climate progress

Six years of negotiations and within six weeks of implementation calls are out to dismantle CBAM, namely by removing fertilisers.

Agree with my colleagues that the Commission must resist this.

The political effects of X's feed algorithm

Feed algorithms are widely suspected to influence political attitudes. However, previous evidence from switching off the algorithm on Meta platforms found no political effects'. Here we present results from a 2023 field experiment on Elon Musk's platform X shedding light on this puzzle. We assigned active US-based users randomly to either an algorithmic or a chronological feed for 7 weeks, measuring political attitudes and online behaviour. Switching from a chronological to an algorithmic feed increased engagement and shifted political opinion towards more conservative positions, particularly regarding policy priorities, perceptions of criminal investigations into Donald Trump and views on the war in Ukraine. In contrast, switching from the algorithmic to the chronological feed had no comparable effects.
Neither switching the algorithm on nor switching it off significantly affected affective polarization or self-reported partisanship. To investigate the mechanism, we analysed users' feed content and behaviour. We found that the algorithm promotes conservative content and demotes posts by traditional media. Exposure to algorithmic content leads users to follow conservative political activist accounts, which they continue to follow even after switching off the algorithm, helping explain the asymmetry in effects. These results suggest that initial exposure to X's algorithm has persistent effects on users' current political attitudes and account-following behaviour, even in the absence of a detectable effect on partisanship.

A new paper shows that less than 2 months of exposure to Twitter’s algorithmic feed significantly shifts people’s political views to the right.

Moving from chronological feed to the algorithmic feed also increases engagement.

This is one of the most concerning papers I’ve read in awhile.

"Kopā līdz uzvarai!" Pie Brīvības pieminekļa notiks Ukrainas atbalsta akcija Ceturtajā gada dienā kopš Krievijas pilna mēroga iebrukuma Ukrainā, 24. februārī pie Brīvības pieminekļa notiks atbalsta akcija Ukrainai "Kopā līdz uzvarai!". Atbalsta akcija sāksies saullēktā plkst. ...

Ja otrdien esat Rīgā, atnāciet plkst. 7:30 pie Brīvības pieminekļa.

Agri, bet tas tādēļ, ka Krievija Ukrainā pirms četriem gadiem iebruka ļoti agri no rīta.

Uz saullēkta brīdi dziedās koristi no vairāk nekā 20 koriem.

I can say from personal experience that Putin is threatened by strong women.

As I argue in a new piece in @foreignaffairs.com, he and his fellow autocrats have reason to fear us:

Defending women's rights and combating authoritarianism is the same fight.

Šodien ikgadējā konferencē spriedām, ka tas tā tiešām varētu būt, bet precizitāte pagaidām ir ap 85%. Secīgi, AI var piedot ātrumu vai palīdzēt pētīt tirgu. Dokumentus AI vēl neraksta pārāk labi.

Es kur manīju, ka viņi aicina pieteikties un man radās iespaids, ka filtrē kompetenci. Bet tas protams nenozīmē, ka konkrētu jautājumu ir viegli izpētīt.

Bet vai Jūsu versija valsts monopols nepalielina šo motīvu? Tā teikt, ieņēmumus no valsts monopola novirzam vardarbības mazināšanai ģimenē.

Šī ir tā daļa, kas mani mulsina - Latvijas apstākļos uzņēmumiem jānodrošina peļņa budžetam. Attiecīgi tas neškiet atšķirīgi no esošās situācijas un iespējas regulēt ‘tirdzniecības politiku’.
