"Carl Öhman's book The Afterlife of Data asks important questions about who should control the data we leave behind us, and by extension, our collective history."

Yesterday, Minds & Machines published this absolute bad boy of a paper! In it, Erik Olsson and I present a new theory of surveillance for the era of quantum computing, all based on his outstanding master's thesis that I had the honor of supervising last year.

Ändå fascinerande att allt som krävdes var en kronologisk tidslinje, att alla gemensamt bestämt sig för att blocka eller ignorera folk som bär sig illa åt.
Ska villigt erkänna att jag trodde Tiktok (och video) var framtiden, men det verkar onekligen som om det blir allt roligare här.
ChatGPT revolutionised AI. But how did it change the media's narratives around it? In this paper, led by my brilliant PhD student Igor Ryazanov, we apply an automated framing analysis to a unique dataset of news articles to find out. The findings surprised us.
