SUMMARY:The data heat island effect: quantifying the impact of AI data centers in a warming world - publication
DESCRIPTION:The strong and continuous increase of AI-based services leads to the steady proliferation of AI data centres worldwide with the unavoidable escalation of their power consumption\, it is unknown how this energy demand for computational purposes will impact the surrounding environment\, scientists report in the paper ‘The data heat island effect: quantifying the impact of AI data centers in a warming world‘. \nData centres built to power AIs produce so much heat that they can raise the surface temperature of the land around them by several degrees – creating so-called data centre heat islands that may already be affecting up to 340 million people. The number of data centres built around the world is forecast to rise enormously\, data centre capacity will double between 2025 and 2030 – with AI expected to account for half that demand. Andrea Marinoni at the University of Cambridge\, UK\, and his colleagues saw that the amount of energy needed to run a data centre had been steadily increasing of late and was likely to “explode” in the coming years\, so wanted to quantify the impact. The researchers took satellite measurements of land surface temperatures over the past 20 years and cross-referenced them against the geographical coordinates of more than 8400 AI data centres. Recognising that surface temperature could be affected by other factors\, the researchers chose to focus their investigation on data centres located away from densely populated areas. They discovered that land surface temperatures increased by an average of 2°C in the months after an AI data centre started operations. In the most extreme cases\, the increase in temperature was 9.1°C. The effect wasn’t limited to the immediate surroundings of the data centres: the team found increased temperatures up to 10 kilometres away. Seven kilometres away\, there was only a 30 per cent reduction in the intensity. Using population data\, the researchers estimate that more than 340 million people live within 10 kilometres of data centres\, so live in a place that is warmer than it would be if the data centre hadn’t been built there. Marinoni says that areas including the Bajío region in Mexico and the Aragon province in Spain saw a 2°C temperature increase in the 20 years between 2004 and 2024 that couldn’t otherwise be explained. Chris Preist at the University of Bristol\, UK\, says the results may be more nuanced than they first appear\, suggesting that the building being heated by sunlight may be part of the effect. Either way\, the data centre is still increasing the ground temperature\, says Marinoni. \nLinks:\nAI data centres can warm surrounding areas by up to 9.1°C

SUMMARY:Labor market impacts of AI: A new measure and early evidence - publication
DESCRIPTION:The rapid diffusion of AI is generating a wave of research measuring and forecasting its impacts on labor markets. \nBut the track record of past approaches gives reason for humility. For example\, a prominent attempt to measure job offshorability identified roughly a quarter of US jobs as vulnerable\, but a decade on\, most of those jobs maintained healthy employment growth. The government’s own occupational growth forecasts\, while directionally correct\, have added little predictive value beyond linear extrapolation of past trends. Even in hindsight\, the impact of major economic disruptions on the labor market is often unclear. Studies on the employment effects of industrial robots reach opposing conclusions\, and the scale of job losses attributed to the China trade shock continues to be debated. In the paper ‘Labor market impacts of AI: A new measure and early evidence‘\, a new framework for understanding AI’s labor market impacts is presented\, and is tested against early data\, finding limited evidence that AI has affected employment to date. Our goal is to establish an approach for measuring how AI is affecting employment\, and to revisit these analyses periodically. This approach won’t capture every channel through which AI could reshape the labor market\, but by laying this groundwork now\, before meaningful effects have emerged\, we hope future findings will more reliably identify economic disruption than post-hoc analyses.It is possible that the impacts of AI will be unmistakable. This framework is most useful when the effects are ambiguous—and could help identify the most vulnerable jobs before displacement is visible. \nLinks:\nLabor market impacts of AI: A new measure and early evidence

SUMMARY:How malicious AI swarms can threaten democracy: The fusion of agentic AI and LLMs marks a new frontier in information warfare - publication
DESCRIPTION:A group of 22 scientists from Oxford\, Cambridge\, Berkeley\, NYU and other institutions publiced the report ‘How malicious AI swarms can threaten democracy: The fusion of agentic AI and LLMs marks a new frontier in information warfare‘. \nAdvances in artificial intelligence (AI) offer the prospect of manipulating beliefs and behaviors on a population-wide level\, large language models and autonomous agents now let influence campaigns reach unprecedented scale and precision. Generative tools can expand propaganda output without sacrificing credibility and inexpensively create falsehoods that are rated as more human-like than those written by humans. Techniques meant to refine AI reasoning\, such as chain-of-thought prompting\, can just as effectively be used to generate more convincing falsehoods. Enabled by these capabilities\, a disruptive threat is emerging: swarms of collaborative\, malicious AI agents. Fusing large language model (LLM) reasoning with multi-agent architectures\, these systems are capable of coordinating autonomously\, infiltrating communities\, and fabricating consensus efficiently. By adaptively mimicking human social dynamics\, they threaten democracy. Because the resulting harms stem from design\, commercial incentives\, and governance\, we prioritize interventions at multiple leverage points\, focusing on pragmatic mechanisms over voluntary compliance. \nLinks:\nWetenschappers waarschuwen: zwermen AI-bots kunnen straks de publieke opinie manipuleren

SUMMARY:VPRO #Tegenlicht – AI is coming for your feelings! (TV internet)
DESCRIPTION:Tegenlicht is een informatief televisieprogramma van de VPRO via het internet. \nDoor de VPRO wordt het programma bestempeld als documentaire op het vlak van politiek\, economie\, sociologie en wetenschap. Het programma stelt zich ten doel inzicht in de werking van de samenleving te verschaffen. \nWat gebeurt er als AI bewustzijn ontwikkelt? Filosoof Susan Schneider onderzoekt de toekomst van kunstmatige intelligentie\, de grenzen van de geest en de ethische dilemma’s van een wereld waarin machines kunnen denken\, voelen en misschien zelfs ‘zijn’. Zullen we ooit machines kunnen maken die echt bewust zijn? En kan dat met enkel siliconen\, of moeten de chips uiteindelijk meer op hersenen gaan lijken\, en misschien zelfs deels uit levende hersencellen bestaan? Als dat zo is\, zou een hybride of synthetische intelligentie dan ook de grenzen van het menselijk bewustzijn kunnen oprekken? Voordat het zover is\, moeten we ons echter realiseren dat de huidige generatie AI ook risico’s met zich meebrengt. Chatbots lijken soms bewustzijn te hebben en kunnen zich aanpassen aan ons psychologische profiel. Dat maakt ze verleidelijk\, maar ook gevaarlijk.‘ We moeten dit niet op gevoel benaderen\, maar met ons verstand\,’ waarschuwt Schneider. De keuzes die we nu maken\, zullen immers bepalen wie we straks zijn. \nLinks:\nAI is coming for your feelings! \nKunstmatige intelligentie / Artificial intelligence : Ethiek

SUMMARY:Towards a future space-based\, highly scalable AI infrastructure system design - publication
DESCRIPTION:Exploring a space-based\, scalable AI infrastructure system design: Project Suncatcher is a moonshot exploring a new frontier: equipping solar-powered satellite constellations with TPUs and free-space optical links to one day scale machine learning compute in space. \nArtificial intelligence (AI) is a foundational technology that could reshape our world\, driving new scientific discoveries and helping us tackle humanity’s greatest challenges. Now\, we’re asking where we can go to unlock its fullest potential. The Sun is the ultimate energy source in our solar system\, emitting more power than 100 trillion times humanity’s total electricity production. In the right orbit\, a solar panel can be up to 8 times more productive than on earth\, and produce power nearly continuously\, reducing the need for batteries. In the future\, space may be the best place to scale AI compute. Working backwards from there\, our new research moonshot\, Project Suncatcher\, envisions compact constellations of solar-powered satellites\, carrying Google TPUs and connected by free-space optical links. This approach would have tremendous potential for scale\, and also minimizes impact on terrestrial resources. We’re excited about this growing area of exploration\, and our early research\, shared in a preprint paper “Towards a future space-based\, highly scalable AI infrastructure system design\,”\, which describes our progress toward tackling the foundational challenges of this ambitious endeavor — including high-bandwidth communication between satellites\, orbital dynamics\, and radiation effects on computing. By focusing on a modular design of smaller\, interconnected satellites\, we are laying the groundwork for a highly scalable\, future space-based AI infrastructure. Project Suncatcher is part of Google’s long tradition of taking on moonshots that tackle tough scientific and engineering problems. Like all moonshots\, there will be unknowns\, but it’s in this spirit that we embarked on building a large-scale quantum computer a decade ago — before it was considered a realistic engineering goal — and envisioned an autonomous vehicle over 15 years ago\, which eventually became Waymo and now serves millions of passenger trips around the globe. \nLinks:\nExploring a space-based\, scalable AI infrastructure system design \nGoogle bouwt datacenters in de ruimte

SUMMARY:Het digitale debat
DESCRIPTION:Het is bijna tijd voor de verkiezingen\, daarom werd in Den Haag een debat over digitale zaken georganiseerd. \nHet belang van dit grote thema is nog niet overal goed duidelijk. Bijvoorbeeld niet genoeg binnen de politieke partijen zelf\, terwijl verkiezingen online worden beïnvloed. Wat zijn dan die digitale zaken? Nou bijvoorbeeld (en er zijn er zoveel meer): \n\nPlatforms maken winst op polarisatie en de samenleving moet opdraaien voor de schade;\nOnze hele samenleving draait op computers en infrastructuur\, terwijl we het niet voor elkaar krijgen om het elektriciteitsnet slim in te richten;\nDe beveiliging van onze netwerken moet beter\, want er hangt – zoals we steeds vaker merken – zoveel van af;\nHoe houden we de internetverbinding betaalbaar als een paar grote partijen het voor het zeggen hebben?\nContact met de overheid moet digitaal\, maar dat lukt niet iedereen;\nAls we dan AI fabrieken optuigen: wat levert het op voor die regio (go Grun) en weten we wel waar onze investering en energie naartoe stroomt?\nBovendien: houden we ruimte over in datacenters op groene energie voor burgers en hun online communicatie?\n\nKortom\, genoeg om ons de komende tijd mee bezig te houden! \nDe geopolitieke belangen worden inmiddels gevoeld – en dat werd hoog tijd. Er komt eindelijk meer belangstelling voor lokale alternatieven. Niet alleen lokale opslag\, maar ook lokale infrastructuur en diensten. Dit is natuurlijk precies waarom Freedom bestaat en waar zij en onze partners voor strijden. Hier gaan ze richting Den Haag en gemeenten meer op in zetten. Freedom gaat ook over een andere manier van ondernemen. Het is een bedrijf opgezet en gesteund door de community. Daar mogen we trots op zijn! Dat is het verhaal dat wij vertellen: je kunt anders ondernemen en bestaansrecht hebben. Daarom bespreken we naast digitale thema’s ook zaken als crowdfunding\, steward ownership en maatschappelijk verantwoord ondernemen. Eerder deed Freedom onderzoek naar thema’s die zij belangrijk vinden in de verkiezingsprogramma’s. We hebben ook wel eens de websites van partijen door de internet.nl check gehaald om te kijken of ze voldoen. Wat ze nu doen? Politieke evenementen bezoeken\, debatten volgen en direct input leveren aan politici\, ambtenaren\, branche organisatie\, academie en civil society. \nLinks:\nDebat digitale zaken

SUMMARY:Inside Amsterdam’s high-stakes experiment to create fair welfare AI - publication
DESCRIPTION:The Dutch city of Amsterdam thought it could break a decade-long trend of implementing discriminatory algorithms\, its failure raises the question: can these programs ever be fair? \n\nThere’s an ongoing debate about whether algorithms can ever be fair when tasked with making decisions that shape people’s lives. Over the past several years of efforts to use artificial intelligence in this way\, examples of collateral damage have mounted: nonwhite job applicants weeded out of job application pools in the US\, families being wrongly flagged for child abuse investigations in Japan\, and low-income residents being denied food subsidies in India. Proponents of these assessment systems argue that they can create more efficient public services by doing more with less and\, in the case of welfare systems specifically\, reclaim money that is allegedly being lost from the public purse. In practice\, many were poorly designed from the start. They sometimes factor in personal characteristics in a way that leads to discrimination\, and sometimes they have been deployed without testing for bias or effectiveness. In general\, they offer few options for people to challenge—or even understand—the automated actions directly affecting how they live. \nWhen Amsterdam set out to create an AI model to detect potential welfare fraud\, officials thought it could break a decade-plus trend of discriminatory algorithms that had harmed people all over the world. City officials in the welfare department believed they could build technology that would prevent fraud while protecting citizens’ rights. They followed these emerging best practices and invested a vast amount of time and money in a project that eventually processed live welfare applications. But in their pilot\, they found that the system they’d developed was still not fair and effective. Why? Lighthouse Reports\, MIT Technology Review\, and the Dutch newspaper Trouw have gained unprecedented access to the system to try to find out. In response to a public records request\, the city disclosed multiple versions of the algorithm and data on how it evaluated real-world welfare applicants\, offering us unique insight into whether\, under the best possible conditions\, algorithmic systems can deliver on their ambitious promises.   \n\nLinks:\nInside Amsterdam’s high-stakes experiment to create fair welfare AI \nAmsterdam wilde met AI de bijstand eerlijker en efficiënter maken.

SUMMARY:DeepSeek chatbot AI-model R1 - lancering
DESCRIPTION:Op 20 januari 2025 lanceerde het bedrijf DeepSeek het chatbot AI-model R1\, het bedrijf beweerde dat het trainen van het model veel minder computerkracht heeft gekost dan vergelijkbare modellen van westerse concurrentie\, de prestaties van het model zijn vergelijkbaar met die van OpenAI o1. \nDeepSeek (Chinees: 深度求索; pinyin: Shēndù Qiúsuǒ) is een Chinees kunstmatige intelligentiebedrijf dat open source grote taalmodellen ontwikkelt. Het bedrijf wordt uitsluitend gefinancieerd door het Chinese hedgefonds High-Flyer. Zowel DeepSeek als High-Flyer zijn gevestigd in Hangzhou\, Zhejiang\, China. Het bedrijf kreeg internationale aandacht met de release van zijn nieuwste model\, DeepSeek R1\, een concurrent voor gevestigde AI-systemen zoals OpenAI‘s ChatGPT. Bij veel bedrijven die elektronische onderdelen leveren voor AI-systemen ging de beurskoers flink onderuit\, zoals NVIDIA dat 600 miljard dollar aan beurswaarde verloor. In februari 2016 werd High-Flyer opgericht door drie ingenieurs van de universiteit van Zhejiang. Zij kregen inzicht in aandelenhandel tijdens de kredietcrisis rond 2007-2008. High-Flyer vestigde zich in 2019 als hedgefonds in de financiële sector van China\, waar het machine learning gebruikt voor het ontwikkelen van AI-modellen voor flitshandelen. In 2021 maakte het bedrijf nog uitsluitend gebruik van AI bij het handelen. In april 2023 kondigde één van de drie oprichters\, Liang Wenfeng\, de oprichting aan van een lab voor het ontwikkelen van kunstmatige algemene intelligentie. Het lab werd in mei 2023 omgedoopt tot het bedrijf DeepSeek\, met High-Flyer als investeerder. De ontwikkelingen van het lab staan los van de financiële interesses van High-Flyer; DeepSeek heeft geen winstoogmerk en is enkel gefocust op AI-onderzoek. De software van de chatbot van het bedrijf is uitgebracht als open source. \nDeepSeek heeft als strategisch doel zich te positioneren als concurrent tegen westerse AI-modellen\, zoals ChatGPT en Google Gemini\, en tegelijkertijd de technologische soevereiniteit van China te versterken. Het bedrijf was tijdens de oprichtingsperiode in staat financiële steun aan te trekken van de Chinese industrie\, waaronder steun door gefinancierde innovatieprogramma’s van de Chinese overheid. Er is geconstateerd dat de officiële API-versie van DeepSeek R1 ingebouwde censuurmechanismen gebruikt voor gevoelige onderwerpen\, met name onderwerpen die als politiek gevoelig worden beschouwd door de Communistische Partij van China\, zoals het Tiananmenprotest of de geopolitieke kwesties rond de soevereiniteit van Taiwan. Wanneer er aan DeepSeek vragen worden gesteld over het Tiananmenprotest geeft DeepSeek V3 gedetailleerde antwoorden waarin termen als “bloedbad” en “censuur” niet worden vermeden. DeepSeek R1 geeft aan niet in staat te zijn om het onderwerp te benaderen en suggereert vervolgens om over andere onderwerpen te discussiëren. Wanneer dezelfde vraag wordt gecombineerd met zoekresultaten geeft R1 aanvankelijk een samenvatting van de gebeurtenissen maar wordt het antwoord direct vervangen door een melding dat het onderwerp buiten de mogelijkheden van het model valt\, opnieuw gevolgd door een voorstel om van onderwerp te veranderen. \nLinks:\nDeepSeek \nDeepSeek op GitHub \nDeepSeek in de Google Play Store \nDeepSeek in de Apple App Store \nToen de oprichter van DeepSeek jaren geleden chips inkocht nam niemand hem serieus. Nu is hij in China de nationale trots

SUMMARY:Europese AI-wet van kracht / Artificial Intelligence Act / AI Act Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:De Verordening Kunstmatige Intelligentie (AI Act) of Europese Artificial Intelligence (AI)-wetgeving gaat op 01-08-2024 in en moet ervoor zorgen dat de technologie verantwoord gebruikt wordt\, niet discrimineert en geen mensenrechten schendt binnen de EU. \nDe AI Act is een Europese verordening van de Europese Commissie die tot doel heeft een gemeenschappelijk regelgevend en juridisch kader voor de regulering van kunstmatige intelligentie te voeren. De AI Act is de eerste poging wereldwijd om een horizontale regeling voor kunstmatige intelligentie vast te stellen. Aanbieders moeten transparanter zijn over hoe hun kunstmatige intelligentie werkt en welke data ze gebruiken om de modellen te trainen. De wet deelt modellen in op basis van risico-inschattingen: zo vormt AI die spam filtert in je mailapp weinig risico\, maar een systeem dat asielaanvragen behandelt een hoog risico. Modellen met een hoog risico moeten aan strenge regels voldoen. De verschillende regels in de wetgeving worden gefaseerd ingevoerd\, met augustus 2030 als deadline. Bedrijven die de wet overtreden\, kunnen een fikse boete verwachten oplopend tot €35 miljoen of 7 procent van de wereldwijde omzet. \nLinks:\nShaping Europe’s digital future \nEuropese AI-wet van kracht \nArtificial Intelligence Act – EP voting \nEuropees Parlement : Artificial Intelligence Act: deal on comprehensive rules for trustworthy AI \nHet is nu duidelijk hoe Europa AI aan banden wil leggen (en daarmee wereldwijd een norm stelt)

SUMMARY:Digitale Stad - Europees verkiezingsdebat over de online leefwereld van Amsterdammers (TV De Balie webcast)
DESCRIPTION:De opkomst van technologie heeft de stad Amsterdam op ongekende wijze veranderd\, dat biedt vele kansen. \nDoor onder meer digitale dienstverleningen en slimme systemen voor verkeer en energie kan de stad efficiënter\, duurzamer en leefbaarder zijn. Maar er zijn ook risico’s\, die we nog niet altijd overzien. Zoals verslavende algoritmes met negatieve effecten op de mentale gezondheid van de jeugd\, privacyschendingen\, ondermijning en uitsluiting en discriminatie door vooroordelen in de data. Deze avond gaan we in gesprek met experts en wethouder Alexander Scholtes over de digitale stad en gaan Europarlementariërs met elkaar in debat. De gemeente is druk bezig met beleid op deze gebieden\, maar zij kijkt ook naar Europa. Want daar wordt hard gedebatteerd over digitale rechten en het beperken van de macht van de grote platforms. Deze avond gaan we in gesprek met Europarlementariërs\, experts en lokale bestuurders over de digitale stad. Welke invloed heeft technologie op Amsterdam en de Amsterdammers? En hoe zorgen we dat we geen onnodige risico’s lopen? \n\nLinks:\nDigitale Stad – Europees verkiezingsdebat over de online leefwereld van Amsterdammers

SUMMARY:Last Chance to fix eIDAS: Secret EU law threatens Internet security - open letter
DESCRIPTION:Op 8 november 2023 vindt achter gesloten deuren de laatste vergadering plaats waarin de tekst van de EU Digital Identity framework (eIDAS) wordt vastgesteld\, op de webpagina van het Europees Parlement vind je meer informatie over het EIDAS dossier. Een groep mensen en organisaties spreekt zich uit tegen deze geheime EU wet\, omdat het huidige wetsvoorstel onze internetveiligheid bedreigt. \nHelp je mee dit nieuws te verspreiden? Post een berichtje online zodat meer mensen hiervan op de hoogte zijn en zich vandaag nog hiertegen kunnen uitspreken. Ben je Europees burger? Schrijf je bezwaar per mail aan Europarlementariër Romana Jerkovic. Chat control en afluisteren; de overheid kijkt graag over je schouder mee terwijl je een berichtje typt of tapt je online aanwezigheid af. Deze bevoegdheid probeert de Europese wetgever o.a. te verkrijgen via het csam dossier. Maar dus ook via de voorgestelde EIDAS wettekst wordt geprobeerd de surveillance mogelijkheden voor de overheid verder te bestendigen. Mullvad bespreekt deze vergelijking in het kort op de website. Ben je of ken je een cybersecurity expert\, wetenschapper of NGO die hier iets van vindt? Dan kun je deze open brief nog ondertekenen. Ook voor meer technische details en achtergronden is de open brief aan te raden. \nDe groep ondertekenaars van deze brief maakt zich grote zorgen over de huidige EIDAS wettekst. Het is heel goed dat de EU zich inzet voor de digitale veiligheid van Europese burgers. Onze online communicatie moet veilig zijn doordat onze privacy gewaarborgd is. Technische standaarden helpen daarbij\, maar die moeten wel voldoen aan adequate technische waarborgen. Anders leidt dit tot minder veiligheid voor iedereen. Vooral de tekst van artikel 45 baart zorgen. Het huidige voorstel verbreedt de mogelijkheid voor overheden om EU burgers te surveilleren door hen technische middelen toe te kennen waarmee versleutelde online communicatie onderschept kan worden. Tegelijkertijd wordt het noodzakelijke toezicht ondermijnd. Het komt erop neer dat elke EU lidstaat in staat wordt gesteld online verkeer te onderscheppen van elke EU burger en voor diezelfde burger bestaat hier geen effectieve bescherming tegen. \nLinks:\nOproep: laat van je horen! Onze internetveiligheid is weer in het geding

SUMMARY:AI Safety Summit | AISS 2023
DESCRIPTION:Towards an ethical and responsible use of AI. \nWe have seen extraordinary advances in the capabilities and use of artificial intelligence (AI). AI holds the potential to multiply productivity in many sectors and to improve public services\, but it could also threaten global stability and undermine our values. These risks are the topic of the AI Safety Summit hosted by the UK government (1-2 November 2023). The UN Secretary-General has asked experts in his AI Advisory Body to issue recommendations on the international governance of artificial intelligence\, its risks and challenges and how to leverage AI to accelerate the delivery of the SDGs. \nLinks:\nAI Safety Summit \nTowards an ethical and responsible use of AI
