#AI Act: The co-rapporteurs' ambition to reach an agreement on crucial parts at yesterday's shadow meeting was frustrated, with lawmakers still far from a common position on AI definition, prohibited practices and high-risk classification. A new timeline is now in order.

German Constitutional Court strikes down predictive algorithms for policing
submitted by nicfab to privacy

The German Federal Constitutional Court declared the use of Palantir surveillance software by police in Hesse and Hamburg unconstitutional in a landmark ruling on Thursday (16 February).
The ruling concludes a case brought by the German Society for Civil Rights (GFF) last year, hearings for which began in December. The plaintiffs argued that the software could be used for predictive policing, raising the risk of mistakes and discrimination by law enforcement.
The German state of Hesse has been using the software since 2017, though it is not yet in place in Hamburg. The technology is provided by Palantir, a US data analytics firm which received early backing from intelligence agencies, including the CIA, FBI and NSA.

The coming weeks will be fundamental for the DSA to take shape, as the European Commission is working on secondary legislation to define critical provisions of the regulation, and large online platforms are taking their first steps toward compliance. EURACTIV caught up with Mathias Vermeulen, Public Policy Director at AWO, and Asha Allen, Advocacy Director in the Europe office of the Center for Democracy and Technology, to discuss some of the most crucial open questions on the DSA implementation.

Can ‘we the people’ keep AI in check?
submitted by nicfab to privacy

https://techcrunch.com/2023/02/16/ai_governance/?guccounter=1
From the source:
Technologist and researcher Aviv Ovadya isn’t sure that generative AI can be governed, but he thinks the most plausible means of keeping it in check might just be entrusting those who will be impacted by AI to collectively decide on the ways to curb it.
That means you; it means me. It’s the power of large networks of individuals to problem solve faster and more equitably than a small group of individuals might do alone (including, say, in Washington). It’s essentially relying on the wisdom of crowds, and it’s happening in many fields, including scientific research, business, politics, and social movements.

From Schneier on Security - Defending against AI Lobbyists

https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2023/02/defending-against-ai-lobbyists.html
When is it time to start worrying about artificial intelligence interfering in our democracy? Maybe when an AI writes a letter to The New York Times opposing the regulation of its own technology.
That happened last month. And because the letter was responding to an essay we wrote, we’re starting to get worried. And while the technology can be regulated, the real solution lies in recognizing that the problem is human actors—and those we can do something about.

Digital identity: the challenges
The topic of digital identity is broad and has involved intense debate over the past few years with the production of numerous contributions.
In Europe, the “proposal for a REGULATION OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL amending Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 as regards the establishment of a framework for a European digital identity” better known as eIDAS 2, was published in June 2021.
This proposed regulation is an evolution of the EU Regulation 910/2014, eIDAS (electronic IDentification, Authentic and trust Services) and stipulates that by 2024 every EU member state will have to make a digital identity wallet (Digital Identity Wallet) available to every citizen who wants it.

Why Twitter’s decision to charge for data access could risk EU fines

https://www.euractiv.com/section/digital/opinion/why-twitters-decision-to-charge-for-data-access-could-risk-eu-fines/
Twitter’s decision to revoke access to their free API will severely disrupt public interest projects worldwide. It’s an irresponsible decision that would disadvantage non-profits, journalists, and academia and could also be at odds with EU regulations.
Lena-Maria Böswald is a Programme Officer for Digital Democracy at Democracy Reporting International, a non-profit organisation promoting democracy worldwide.
Two weeks ago, out of the blue, Twitter’s development team announced in a thread that the platform would no longer provide free access to its developer application programming interface (API) (both v2 and v1.1) starting February 9. Instead, a paid basic tier replacing all previous access levels will be made available for 100 $ per month that offers low-level access.
