Wie wird der #DSA in Deutschland umgesetzt? Im neuen Policy Paper fordern Jakob Ohme, Ulrike Klinger, und viele weitere Forschende von der Bundesregierung, Datenzugang zu #SocialMedia #Plattformen zu ermöglichen. Ohne Forschung, keine Strategien für den Umgang mit #Falschinformationen oder Hass-Nachrichten.

✨ Policy Paper: Was die #Wissenschaft im Rahmen des Datenzugangs nach Art. 40 #DSA braucht: 20 Punkte zu Infrastrukturen, Beteiligung, Transparenz und Finanzierung:

Der Digital Services Act soll die Nutzung von Online-Diensten sicherer und transparenter machen. Dazu soll die Wissenschaft einen möglichst freien Zugang zu den Daten digitaler Plattformen erhalten. Aus Sicht von Forschenden müssen dafür jedoch 20 Bedingungen erfüllt sein.

Today, we celebrate and enjoy the delight of our DissLike workbench colloquium, a buffet of young and not that young STS research on digital politics, (anti-)feminisim on social media, mapping methods, technology policy, speech assistants, crypto & blockchain, in/visibility of infrastructure, and creativity not only at hackathons. It is always exciting to see the extends and contents of such a get together.

(@jhpassoth you'll love this 😃)

"Nein, leider nicht. Es muss deine Originalunterschrift drauf sein.

Ich leg dir den Ausdruck auf weißem Papier hin. Du unterschreibst, ich scanne ihn gleich ein und schicke an sie. Sie druckt ihn dann mit deiner Originalunterschrift auf grünes Papier aus und scannt ihn dann wieder ein...."

I want to believe that this is all on purpose as a super subtle, even therapeutic strategy to slow down thinking and action, as Stengers would say...

Interesting thought I just heard from a very senior AI technologist: The field that things like GPT3 and ChatGPT will disrupt first and most intensely is... programming. LLMs talking to humans is much harder than LLMs essentially training on code to build more code.
