Reguliert sich die EU mit dem AI Act selbst kaputt? Oder was bedeutet diese neue Richtlinie jetzt für KI in Europa? Darüber spricht Christian Krug, der Host des Podcasts „Unf*ck Your Data“ mit Larysa Visengeriyeva der „Godmother of ML Ops“USA innoviert. China kopiert. Europa reguliert. So das bekannte Meme. Denn mit dem AI ACT der EU tritt jetzt eine Verordnung in Kraft bei der viele sich fragen was diese mit uns machen wird. Denn es gibt ganz viele Aspekte unter denen man diese Verordnung betrachten kann.Jetzt der Spoiler: Wenn man aus einer Engineeringsicht darauf schaut stellt der AI ACT höhere Anforderungen an die Doku. Was gute Programmierer*innen vom Coding in regulierten Umfeldern kennen wird hier eine Stufe weiter gebracht. Neben dem Code müssen mehr Details offen gelegt werden. Zum Beispiel auch – Welche Daten wurden für das Training verwendet. Eigentlich recht einfach, wer seine Hausaufgaben gemacht hat, ist sicher. Für alle anderen heißt es nachdokumentieren.Aber so einfach dieser Teil scheint, liegt natürlich hier einiges an Arbeit verborgen. Und auch die anderen Aspekte der Richtlinie verdienen Beachtung. Denn wie so oft steht dahinter ein an sich guter Grundgedanke. Der AI ACT soll die Bürger*innen Europas schützen. Aber wovor genau?▬▬▬▬▬▬ Profile: ▬▬▬▬Zum LinkedIn-Profil von Larysa: https://www.linkedin.com/in/larysavisenger/Zum LinkedIn-Profil von Christian: https://www.linkedin.com/in/christian-krug/Christians Wonderlink: https://wonderl.ink/@christiankrugUnf*ck Your Data auf Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/unfck-your-data▬▬▬▬▬▬ Buchempfehlung: ▬▬▬▬Buchempfehlung von Larysa: Richard Hamming - The Art of Doing Science and EngineeringAlle Empfehlungen in Melenas Bücherladen: https://gunzenhausen.buchhandlung.de/unfuckyourdata▬▬▬▬▬▬ Hier findest Du Unf*ck Your Data: ▬▬▬▬Zum Podcast auf Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6Ow7ySMbgnir27etMYkpxT?si=dc0fd2b3c6454bfaZum Podcast auf iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/de/podcast/unf-ck-your-data/id1673832019Zum Podcast auf Deezer: https://deezer.page.link/FnT5kRSjf2k54iib6Zum Podcast auf Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@unfckyourdata▬▬▬▬▬▬ Merch: ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬https://unfckyourdata-shop.de/▬▬▬▬▬▬ Kontakt: ▬▬▬▬E-Mail: christian@uyd-podcast.com▬▬▬▬▬▬ Timestamps: ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬00:00 Einführung in den EU AI Act und seine Bedeutung12:03 Regulierung von KI-Systemen: Risiken und Schutzmaßnahmen24:03 Compliance und...

Today, we are speaking with Liz Dennett, the CEO and Founder of Endolith. Endolith recently spun out of Cemvita to form its own independent company. (Ep #200 with Moji from Cemvita)By 2050, we will need more copper than in the history of mankind due to the electrification of industry and developing countries. If we don't solve this, it could lead to geopolitical conflicts. Their tech uses microbes to eat crushed rocks and poop out copper (I did say explain it to me like I'm 5). They add this to existing mining operations to increase output by ~10%. This helps us get closer to solving copper demand.In today's conversation, we cover**Copper in electrification**Her journey to CEO of Endolith**Why copper could be the thing wars are fought over**The innovation behind microbial mining**The balance between generating hype and focusing on scientific advancementsEnjoy! ---

Larysa placed the start of her journey in the country she was born in, the Soviet Union, with her discovery of those books filled with 0s and 1s that she could not understand. Fast forward a few years, and she is hooked by Maths and Computer Science and doesn't want to do anything else. After her Master's degree in Odessa, she moved to Germany and studied again. From then on, we talked about how she pursued a Ph.D., pivoted on the problem she was tackling, and discovered a new field ML-Ops. We discussed the state of ML-Ops, how it is placed in the "Data" and ML problem chain, and how one should go at it.Here are the links from the showhttps://www.twitter.com/visengerhttps://ml-ops.org/https://ml-ops.org/content/phase-zerohttps://ml-ops.org/content/end-to-end-ml-workflowhttps://github.com/visenger/awesome-mlopshttps://women-in-data-ai.tech/https://mlops.community/https://www.linkedin.com/in/larysavisenger/https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/530415.The_Art_of_Doing_Science_and_EngineeringCreditsCover Legends by HoliznaCC0 is licensed CC0 1.0 Universal License.Your host is Timothée (Tim) Bourguignon; more about him at timbourguignon.fr.Gift the podcast a rating on one of the significant platforms https://devjourney.info/subscribePracticing Connection: Working together to help families and communities thrive.Jessica Beckendorf and Bob Bertsch host this exploration of personal and collective...Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the show1.

Our listeners want to know more about Grayshift, our mission, and the knowledgeable people who work here creating powerful digital forensics tools. Our guest today is Bernie Lampe, Vice President of Research at Grayshift, and we're talking about all things Android. GrayKey has developed as a standout, game-changing leader in iOS access and extraction, but many people don't realize that Grayshift also supports Android devices. So this episode is dedicated to talking about the Android capabilities related to GrayKey. [01:53] Profile of this episode's guest: Bernie Lampe, Vice President of Research - Grayshift Has experience in both government and the private sector Joined the Air Force in 1999 He has presented at conferences and universities, and his research has been published. For the last several years, he has been working with government organizations on various projects, including remote sensing and vulnerability research [10:54] When did Grayshift first release support for Android devices? Bernie was hired in May 2020, and in January 2021, Grayshift released the S20 Android is meant to be more flexible than iOS. While iOS has a lineage version number, Android spider webs Since the S20, Grayshift has focused on Samsung because the company is the biggest provider of vendor Android phones Grayshift has also made its way into the Moto space [17:16] How to find good vulnerability researchers A good vulnerability researcher has to have reverse engineering skills. Code auditing experience is essential. Many people have the right things on their resumes, but they don't necessarily have a practitioner's level of working knowledge. The best people at this job are creative thinkers. [24:29] Attack surfaces have become more complicated over time A researcher has to invest a lot of time and effort into understanding a particular narrow problem set that is complicated. While there is some crossover between Android and iOS, understanding each well requires individual focus. Encryption schemes are constantly changing, and the work people did years ago is less relevant now. Someone must be deeply invested in understanding what's going on with one particular attack surface to devise techniques that no one else would know. [35:23] Some of the biggest vulnerabilities in Android Vendors have added various security and ad hoc security mechanisms that have been poorly implemented and have become sources of vulnerabilities themselves. Android has a lag time between finding a bug and perfectly patching it because of infighting between different companies or the company itself. One of the biggest problems with computer science in general in the software industry is that there are no standards. [41:07] Strategies for learning new devices The first step is finding the firmware and understanding the different pieces. The next step is researching by trying to find any open-source documentation, looking at the data, and looking at other online information about how people have approached this technology. One of the biggest challenges is knowing where to spend time in research. If a lot of information is available online, that route might not be a fertile attack surface because it has been vetted. If you can ask a question that no one has asked before, then typically, asking the right question leads to an answer quickly. [50:21] How long does it take to research and develop a solution for Grayshift to add a phone to its support matrix? The timeframe can vary from months to years. While bugs are constantly found, the bugs aren't necessarily usable. Grayshift's exploit engineering team has done an amazing job of building automated systems to port-forward bugs. If some phones are similar, they might have bugs that are portable. Support for those phones might be almost immediate. Because of fragmentation, each phone is configured differently, so they won't have the same bugs and won't be supported as quickly. The time between finding a vulnerability and actually finding an exploit can be long, but Grayshift is trying to speed that up by encapsulating fragmentation. [01:11:15] Advice for someone wanting to start a career in software vulnerability research Not everyone has the temperament for research. People need to be prepared to fail and learn from failing. Someone is always on the other side trying to pull the bricks out of the bridge you're trying to build, and then you have to start all over again. Learning how to learn is critical.

“In today's world, even a non-Stagnated version, the flying car is not a replacement for the car; it is a replacement for the airplane. A reasonably well-designed convertible could fit right in to today's airspace system; it would fit right into our road system as well. Without the Stagnation there might well be a 50,000 airplane per year market, and enough licensed pilots to buy them. Remember, average family income would be well into six figures. In 1950, about one quarter of one percent of Americans were licensed pilots; that percentage today amounts to over three quarters of a million, which is market aplenty, for a start.” Welcome back to another episode of Made You Think! In this episode, we discuss Where Is My Flying Car? by J. Storrs Hall who calls out the stagnation of productivity since the 1970s and gives us a glimpse of what our future could be if we strive for it. We cover a wide range of topics including: Why growth has slowed since the 1970s What's possible with nuclear energy and nanotech? The zero sum way of thinking How our tolerance for risk has changed over time The progression of aviation from the early 1900s to now And much more.

(4:35) The explanation behind the spy balloons and other UFOs. (9:52) Nat, Neil, and Adil talk about some book recommendations they've received and books they'd recommend to others. (11:56) One takeaway from the book is that we don't tend to work on things that feel impossible. Much of what we've accomplished is what feels safe and what we know we'll see success in. (17:42) The book we're discussing today is Where Is My Flying Car? The book talks about the stagnation of the physical world because we didn't invest as much as we could have in nuclear energy, nanotech, and aviation. (22:14) Some of the different technologies that have been idealized feel fictional and out of reach. However, we're much further than we know in understanding the technical part of it and these ideas may not be all that unattainable. (26:44) Early on, the book emphasizes the flying car, then goes to explain that you can't get the flying car without better energy policies and nanotech. (30:05) The cost efficiency of nuclear fuel. (32:03) The Henry Adams curve. How do we make the shift from creating more energy to using the energy more efficiently? The amount of energy your civilization harnesses is indicative of your wealth and quality of living. (35:39) The ‘zero sum' way of thinking and how it impacts moral behavior. If you don't have economic growth, you can't sustain democracy in the long run. (38:09) What would good regulation look like? How the atomic bomb changed the progress and power of countries. (44:45) Climate change and the argument of CO2 as an enemy. If CO2 did increase, it would be beneficial to plants but harmful to humans. (46:55) Aviation from the 30's and 40's and the stagnation over the past few decades in air travel. While we made progress after the first aircraft was made and through WW1 and WW2, the progress since is seemingly slow. (52:23) The distinction between leading edge vs. depth and the importance of computing progress in space travel. (58:29) Before the era of computing, many things were controlled by pumps and levers. Our risk tolerance is much different than it once was. (1:04:40) We have different ideas of what risk is now. We still have the instinct to make progress in society, but it has been redirected towards other things. (1:11:16) The 5 levels of transportation and how your wealth determines your level. There are millions of people who can't afford shoes, yet people in higher socioeconomic classes can afford cars. Both are vehicles for transportation. (1:16:42) What will good tech look like in 50 years? We've progressed in telecommunication with audio, video, tv, podcasts, instant messaging, etc. A lot of science fiction is pessimistic about humanity. (1:22:48) Nanotech and the capabilities you can achieve with it. (1:30:58) Have you ever read a book and wished it was longer or shorter? (1:42:02) That concludes this episode!

Panelists Georg Link | Nicole Huesman | Sean Goggins Guests Tim Lehnen | Matthew Tift Sponsor SustainOSS (https://sustainoss.org/) Show Notes Today, we are lucky to have two representatives from the Drupal community. Our two guests are Tim Lehnen, CTO of the Drupal Association, and Matthew Tift, Lead Engineer at Lullabot, who has been involved in the Drupal Project since 2010. They are here today to talk about who contributes to open source and how do we understand this in the Drupal Community. We also learn the meaning behind Tim and Matthew's catchphrases, “Build a better picture of how open source gets built” and “Building a better understanding of corporate citizenship in open source.” Download this episode now to find out much more! Don't forget to subscribe for free to this podcast and share this podcast with your friends and colleagues. [00:02:13] Tim and Matthew introduce themselves and tell us what they do and how they got into the Drupal community. [00:06:18] Tim and Matthew talk about what the Drupal community is doing to really be this community that it is today. [00:13:14] Nicole wonders how Tim and Matthew go about putting a pulse on who's contributing from a non-code perspective, and if there are ways that they surface these contributors either through reports or other ways. They talk about the mechanics of what they do. [00:18:43] Tim talks about one of the key considerations of the initial design is wanting to avoid giving people too much paperwork, and Tim tells us the two catchphrases they came up. [00:20:15] Matt talks about an analysis that he did with Dries Buytaert called, “Who sponsors Drupal development?” [00:25:16] Tim talks about two points that were brought up by Matt and Nicole earlier about the value of understanding who gets paid to the work and the different roles and historically unnoticed roles in open source. [00:28:24] We learn more about what we can do with the data when we capture it really well. Tim talks about the cool data they gathered and what they did with it, and the experiment they are trying out at the Drupal Association. [00:38:43] Georg asks Tim how the issue tracker is being used and how has that collaboration shaping up there. [00:49:16] Nicole asks if Tim and Matthew if they report out on the diversity of the Drupal community and if they've seen upticks or changes. [00:52:24] Find out where you can follow Tim and Matthew and their work online. They also share advice for communities that want to adopt a system and resources or any starting points. Quotes [00:17:25] “It's organizing these different events, it's writing a blog, it's all of these different things that we do to, it's the so what who cares, it's the translating the lines of code into, you know at heart I'm a storyteller, so it's really translating these lines of code into why is that important to our broader world.” [00:19:48] “Building a better picture of how open source gets built” and “Building a better understanding of corporate citizenship in open source,” were two of our sort of like catch phrases.” [00:31:57] “So if your organization sponsors a lot of people's time you get to come up right on top of the list, you get more business and leads, you're rewarded for sponsoring your developers to work on the project, and that encourages you to do it more.” [00:38:08] “Nobody in our community wants people to feel bad, so we're trying to tweak this. We're trying to work on our algorithms, our marketplace page as a committee that could probably talk about that studying this.” [00:42:12] “So, we have our contribution recognition committee which has access to what the true weights are. We don't publish the exact numbers of those variables because gaming the system is something you have to look out for and manage and review periodically.” [00:44:48] “And I think for me, there is still the sense that you can use these data in different kinds of ways and one of them is to sort of rank people. And I think in another way, one of the more interesting views is to kind of understand the diversity of the community, to try and understand what sort of initiatives are important to organizations, and what initiatives are important to say, volunteers.” Adds (Picks) of the week [00:53:51] Georg's pick is the Nebraska Passport Program.

Episode sponsored by Tidelift: https://tidelift.com/ (tidelift.com) I don’t know about you, but the notion of time is really intriguing to me: it’s a purely artificial notion; we humans invented it — as an experiment, I asked my cat what time it was one day; needless to say it wasn’t very conclusive… And yet, the notion of time is so central to our lives — our work, leisures and projects depend on it. So much so that time series predictions represent a big part of the statistics and machine learning world. And to talk about all that, who better than a time master, namely Sean Taylor? Sean is a co-creator of the Prophet time series package, available in R and Python. He’s a social scientist and statistician specialized in methods for solving causal inference and business decision problems. Sean is particularly interested in building tools for practitioners working on real-world problems, and likes to hang out with people from many fields — computer scientists, economists, political scientists, statisticians, machine learning researchers, business school scholars — although I guess he does that remotely these days… Currently head of the Rideshare Labs team at Lyft, Sean was a research scientist and manager on Facebook’s Core Data Science Team and did a PhD in information systems at NYU’s Stern School of Business. He did his undergraduate at the University of Pennsylvania, studying economics, finance, and information systems. Last but not least, he grew up in Philadelphia, so, of course, he’s a huge Eagles fan! For my non US listeners, we’re talking about the football team here, not the bird! We also talked about two of my favorite topics — science communication and epistemology — so I had a lot of fun talking with Sean, and I hope you’ll deem this episode a good investment of your time

I'm always careful about what goes inside my brain. That includes books or any source of inputs because that changes how I think and influence how I see the world. Then there's a deeper layer, doing the same things as everyone else. If you do, you end up thinking like everyone else. To me, that's scary because I want to have different ideas and unusual thoughts. The way to do that is by ignoring what everyone suggests and asking yourself what you really want to learn about and what you really want to do. Here are 3 of my favorite Obscure Books! - The Art of Doing Science and Engineering by Richard Hamming (https://amzn.to/3lvB4in) - 7 Brief Lessons on Physics by Carlo Rovelli (https://amzn.to/38F1dYt) - Tao Te Ching (https://amzn.to/3nzi3wn) ................................................................

Gianluca and Jared speak about absurdism, existentialism, and an antidote to becoming bored with the world. They then think out loud about direction versus random walks as well as their visions for the long term future of humanity and how to even think about these kinds of massive questions. They also touch on attention and what it would mean to use it well, all things considered, some of the basics of Transhumanism, and what single thing each of us would wish for to give humanity its best chance at thriving! ---------- Shownotes: Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy - Absurdism: https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/camus/ Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy - Existentialism: https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/existentialism/ Some great videos from The School of Life about Existentialism: ‘Philosophy - Sartre': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bQsZxDQgzU and ‘Existentialism and Dating': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AcniOW0wc5k Kurt Vonnegut books: ‘Slaughterhouse Five': https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4981.Slaughterhouse_Five and ‘Breakfast of Champions': https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4980.Breakfast_of_Champions Bonus: Jared's favourite article introducing a key concept related to Transhumanism: https://waitbutwhy.com/2016/03/cryonics.html 80 000 Hours on why we should value the long term future: https://80000hours.org/articles/future-generations/ as well as a podcast episode (from the 80 000 Hours podcast) on a similar topic: https://80000hours.org/podcast/episodes/why-the-long-run-future-matters-more-than-anything-else-and-what-we-should-do-about-it/ and a strong argument for thinking about existential risk: https://80000hours.org/articles/extinction-risk/ Book ‘The Art of Doing Science and Engineering': https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/530415.The_Art_of_Doing_Science_and_Engineering ‘The Last Question', a short story by Isaac Asimov: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4808763-the-last-question P.S. a great reading can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojEq-tTjcc0 ‘Do Spoilers Change a Person's Enjoyment of a Television Show?' https://digital.usfsp.edu/masterstheses/166/ and ‘Story Spoilers Don't Spoil Stories' https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/0956797611417007?journalCode=pssa - two studies suggesting maybe spoilers aren't as bad as we think? (that being said, don't try me - Jared) Jared's current favourite explanation of the Buddhist concept of ‘emptiness' comes from this book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/32895535-why-buddhism-is-true A great, short video explaining some aspects of the Fermi Paradox: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sNhhvQGsMEc (part 1), https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1fQkVqno-uI (part 2) and a bonus on the Great Filter hypothesis: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UjtOGPJ0URM
We open up with some extended housekeeping which will excite any Global Zionist Conspiracy theorist. We explain our long hiatus, technical problems, and adventures with the Iranian Revolutionary Guard; we digress about the crash of 2008, Icelandic bankers, and German poo; and we speculate about doing episodes on profanity, on law, and on rabbis. We also celebrate Tzvi’s new job at Proggio! Then, remarking on how we’re the anti-religious religious guys, we smoothly transition into our main topic (brought to you by Holy Madness community member Yonadav!): BURNING QUESTIONS. … a topic which makes Meir-Simchah insecure and defensive because the fire of his burning questions has faded. Instead he has hypotheses. Tzvi then discusses growing up in black hat Brooklyn and how teenagers who asked theological questions were considered troubled… which was true, but not for the reasons their rabbis and parents thought. Questions burn, Tzvi suggests, when they hang your sense of self in the balances; and in contrast with Meir-Simchah, when Tzvi found he was no longer burned by his questions, he felt like he’d gotten somewhere in life. (Did he?) We then stumble over a proof that the Torah was authored by God. Turns out Meir-Simchah’s burning questions in high school were the cutting-edge of the post-modernism against which the “Intellectual Dark Web” has mobilized (we mention metaphor-meister Eric Weinstein, Jordan Peterson, and Bari Weiss). Tzvi remarks that both Social Justice Warriors and the Intellectual Dark Web religify politics converting what could be essentially pragmatic or philosophic matters into burning questions where the self hangs in the balance. Masculinity pops up. These strange appetizers flow into a meaty dialectic. What’s with the weird opposition of Culture vs. Technology, Philosophers vs. Technologists, Ends vs. Means, The Meaning of Life vs. cancer drugs… Not to mention, the Spirituality of Doing Science vs. AI Takeover Dystopias, and Arnold Schwarzenegger vs. Tzvi’s impersonation of Mr. Universe. Then suddenly Meir-Simchah appears to be a closet Marxist! Tzvi reviews Neil Postman’s Technopoly: The Surrender of Culture to Technology, and quotes a section in which Postman reviews—and mocks—a New York Times article by Daniel Goleman. This leads into a discussion of how, lately, some public intellectuals try to convert moral questions into technological questions, whether the Talmud does that (it doesn’t), the Naturalistic Fallacy (cf. the Is-Ought Problem), and gay pigeons in Hume's Guillotine (no gay pigeons were harmed in the production of this episode… cisgender pigeons however are Nazis according to Antifa). What’s the difference between Maimonides’ scientific meditations and the Total Perspective Vortex in Douglas Adam’s Hitchhiker’s Guide? Knowing how the world is created for you. If you enjoy the show, there are many ways you can support the show. Please check our previous episodes and subscribe via this site, iTunes, whichever podcast app you like best, etc. Please spread the Holy Madness to your family, friends, and community members! And if you're up for some discussion, join us on our Facebook page "Holy Madness - The Show" and Facebook discussion group "Holy Madness - The Discussion Group". If you would like to contribute some of the money you have for tzadaka or charity, as the saying runs, "no flour, no Torah; no Torah, no flour," please pitch in on our PATREON at www.patreon.com/holymadness. And, finally, as we were saying about live shows... Tzvi and Meir-Simchah do travel down from their mountain periodically, so if you have a synagogue, church, campus, and/or coffee shop in your area where you would like to host us, please get in touch!
