It has the potential to revolutionise Europe's AI future but in the midst of all the political drama from the past weeks, you probably didn't hear about it. Announced in Von der Leyen's political guidelines for the next Commission, officially it's called the European AI Research Council, but the Commission President referred to it as the CERN for AI. CERN, of course, being one of the world's largest centres for scientific research. But what is this CERN for AI? To understand the significance of this announcement, host Catarina Vila Nova sat down with Aaron Maniam, Senior Fellow for Advanced AI at the International Center for Future Generations. Aaron also teaches at the Blavatnik School of Government at the University of Oxford and chairs the World Economic Forum's Global Future Council on the Future of Technology Policy and the OECD's Expert Group on AI Futures. For Maniam, this CERN-like structure for AI may well represent a “watershed” moment for Europe. It is a chance for the EU to get ahead of the curve in the tech race and Maniam argues that a CERN-like structure – combining the private and public sector – is the winning formula.

In May 2024, the Expert Group on Future Skills Needs (EGFSN) published its report on Skills for International Financial Services - An Assessment of Future Skills Requirements in High Potential Sub-sectors of Ireland's International Financial Services Sector to 2027. This report identifies the availability of training and education relevant to the financial services industry. It assesses where gaps might arise in terms of new skills and numbers of skilled individuals up to 2027. It also sets out a number of recommendations to ensure that the potential training and skills needs identified can be addressed effectively. Who better to chat to about this report than Martina Kelly, who chaired expert Steering Group that directed the production and publication of the report. Martina is Director Funds at the IOB (Institute of Bankers) and acts as an independent director to several Irish regulated financial services providers. We discuss the background to the report, its aims and findings. We also discuss the recommendations produced and the plans for ensuring that they are implemented. Plenty to discuss then – enjoy!

This and all episodes at: https://aiandyou.net/ . We are talking about international governance of AI again today, a field that is just growing and growing as governments across the globe grapple with the seemingly intractable idea of regulating something they don't understand. Helping them understand that is Markus Anderljung, Director of Policy and Research at the Centre for the Governance of AI in the UK. He aims to produce rigorous recommendations for governments and AI companies, researching frontier AI regulation, responsible cutting-edge development, national security implications of AI, and compute governance. He is an Adjunct Fellow at the Center for a New American Security, and a member of the OECD AI Policy Observatory's Expert Group on AI Futures. He was previously seconded to the UK Cabinet Office as a Senior Policy Specialist. I know “governance” sounds really dry and a million miles away from the drama of existential threats, and jobs going away, and loss of privacy on a global scale; but governance is exactly the mechanism by which we can hope to do something about all of those things. Whenever you say, or you hear someone say, “Someone ought to do something about that,” governance is what answers that call. In the conclusion, we talk about verification processes, ingenious schemes to verify hardware platforms, the frontier AI safety commitments, and who should set safety standards for the industry. All this plus our usual look at today's AI headlines. Transcript and URLs referenced at HumanCusp Blog.

Whenever you say, or you hear someone say, “Someone ought to do something about that,” governance is what answers that call. We talk about just what the Centre is, what it does and how it does it, and definitions of artificial general intelligence insofar as they affect governance – just what is the difference between training a system with 1025 and 1026 flops, for instance? And also in this part Markus will talk about how monitoring and verification might specifically work. All this plus our usual look at today's AI headlines.

In today's episode of the podcast, we are joined by psychiatrist and neuropharmacologist Dr. Ken Gillman who is the founder and convener of the International MAOI (monoamine oxidase inhibitor) Expert Group and widely recognized as a world expert in serotonin toxicity.    Serotonin toxicity (syndrome) is a rare as well as potentially lethal form of toxicity that results from excess serotonin within neuronal synapses. There are numerous poorly written/controlled case reports that have perpetuated misinformation about drugs that can cause serotonin toxicity. While the word “syndrome” is often used, toxicity is a more accurate description given that toxicity represents a spectrum of severity rather than a defined set of symptoms. In today's podcast, we will discuss the pathophysiology, causes, clinical presentation, criteria, controversies, and medical management of serotonin toxicity.  Full blog here.

Perhaps for the final time in 2022 your intrepid hosts reconvene ENERGY CRISIS CORNER. Why you might ask? Only: the spectacular recall of the Federal Parliament to pass legislation on a price cap for wholesale gas for the next year, $3bn in bill relief for vulnerable Australians to be jointly paid by the Commonwealth and the states, price caps on coal to be enacted by the states AND somewhere in there a significant commitment to fund energy efficiency and electrification for households and businesses, $TBA. So y'know. #fairbitonThis week we discuss one of the bagillion reports launched at COP27, this one from the UN High-Level Expert Group on the Net Zero Commitments of Non-State Entities, ‘Integrity Matters: Net Zero Commitments by Businesses, Financial Institutions, Cities and Regions'. AKA the Greenwashing Report! Frankie's One More Thing is the recent announcement from Treasurer Jim Chalmers that the Government will develop a comprehensive sustainable finance strategy, including mandatory climate risk reporting, a sustainable finance taxonomy and a crackdown on corporate greenwashing. It's allllll coming together folks. Tennant's One More Thing is a hot-off-the-press update from European Trilogues in which an agreement was reached on a host of measures, but of most interest to our resident CBAM enthusiast, was the green light on implementation for the European CBAM which will come into force in 2026 after a 3-year transition. Enough time for other jurisdictions to implement their own CBAMs? OUI! says Tennant.Luke's One More Thing is a cracking podcast for the politically inclined, etymology curious subset of Summeruperers (ALL OF YOU RIGHT?). Origin Story sees hosts Ian Dunt and Dorian Lynskey dive into the histories behind words and concepts that are commonly misunderstood and get thrown around willy nilly. McCarthyism? Woke? Centrism? This pod has got you covered. HOLIDAY SPECIAL: Summerupperers, to a collective ‘meh' from your intrepid hosts at the result of our poll, we will indeed dutifully go and watch Don't Look Up and bring you what could potentially be the last remaining hot spicy vindaloo takes on this analysed-up-the-wazooo climate movie. Frankie is happy it's not Naked Gun 2.5 (also wasn't an option) and Tennant is about as happy as the gas industry is right now (did you catch his openly self interested and partisan campaign for Soylent Green on Twitter?). The Good News? Don't Look Up is streaming now (and likely until the End Times) on Netflix, so you can watch along at home! Go on!And that's all from us this week Summerupperers! We shall see you next time and until then, please keep tweeting your thoughts to us at @LukeMenzel, @TennantReed and @FrankieMuskovic and if you would like to weave some golden threads through our back catalogue, give us your feelpinions or suggest papers to read we are always here for that - hit us up at mailbag@letmesumup.net.

Ms. Maghame has served as senior IP counsel at Hewlett-Packard and Compaq Computer Corporation and has been a member of distinguished IP law firms Brobeck, Phleger & Harrison, and Perkins Coie, specializing in IP litigation, licensing, and counseling. She is a graduate of Georgetown University Law Centre and is admitted to practice in California and Washington State, as well as before the USPTO. In 2018, Ms. Maghame was appointed to the European Commission's Expert Group on Licensing and Valuation of Standard Essential Patents. She has been included in the 1AM 300 World's Leading IP Strategists for multiple years and is a frequent speaker on patent licensing and policy matters. Ms. Maghame was vice president of wireless programs and corporate development at Via Licensing Corporation, where she developed and managed strategic multi-party licensing programs in wireless and cellular technologies. Before joining Via in 2017, Ms. Maghame served as senior counsel in Apple's IP and licensing group, focusing on patent licensing strategy and standards, and represented Apple in global standards-related organizations. Before Apple, she was acting as general counsel and vice president for M&A, patent policy, and government relations at Tessera Technologies. In this high-profile policy role, she helped to found the Innovation Alliance, an organization representing patent holders' interests before Congress. She has testified before the Senate Committee on the Judiciary and the Federal Trade Commission regarding patent matters. Today Taraneh runs her own business: Maghame IP Consulting PLLC, a firm that provides strategic counseling and expert services focused on IP issues related to the development, use, and licensing of standards. In the podcast, Taraneh elaborates on her experience working with SEPs for over two decades. While 20 years ago a few big telecom players owned SEPs and cross-licensed these, today SEP licensing has dramatically changed. This is because of the wide use of standardized technologies such as LTE or 5G and that there is much more at stake now. While the past years show that many SEP licensing deals were successfully closed at the same time patent litigation was dominated by SEP/FRAND disputes. Worldwide disputes may work for large smartphone manufacturers and huge SEP owners, Taraneh believes however that when SEPs are licensed for IoT use cases licensing must be much more efficient. The royalty rates will likely be much lower. Long disputes are not worth the investment for both sides of the table. Even more, it maybe is worth overthinking not only the license on the OEM level because, in the end, it may create more revenue to license many components or modules for a lower rate than the other way around. Also, Taraneh believes that the formation of Licensing Negotiation Groups (LNGs) should at least be considered, given there are no anti-trust issues. Taraneh helps companies in new industry verticals that use connectivity standards or plan to use connectivity standards in their products. Taraneh believes that regulators should allow the markets to self-regulate but at the same time believes that policymakers should provide more guidance for solutions and especially increase transparency to decrease legal uncertainty in industries where SEP licensing is yet to be established. This is for the good of both the implementers and the SEP holders. During her days at Via Licensing, she experienced great collaborations and constructive solutions when patent holders and implementers are open and transparent in working together.This year the Department of Justice, USPTO, and NIST withdraw the 2019 SEP policy statement (June 2022). Taraneh is excited to see if we will see anything from the US regulators. While there are rumors for a draft bill that proposes a federal SEP royalty court with global impact, Taraneh believes that because this bill is currently unsponsored and was proposed by

În 2020, 18% din companiile din Moldova erau predispuse să contracteze credite, notează un raport al AmCham. Astfel, practic fiecare a cincea companie analiza oportunitatea de creditare drept instrument investițional și/sau instrument de reducere a impactului pandemiei. Totuși, antreprenorii continuă să rămână destul de sceptici atunci când este vorba de contractarea unui credit și preferă să investească în business din resurse proprii. Pentru a face lumină în ceea ce ține de creditarea afacerilor, AGORA a discutat cu directorul program „Mediu de afaceri și IMM” al Expert Group, Stas Madan, despre metodele de finanțare a unei întreprinderi, care este procedura de contractare a unui credit și ce ar trebuie să întreprindă instituțiile statului pentru a facilita finanțarea antreprenorilor.

The design trailblazer behind a popular creative thinking programme being run in Irish schools says her team is this month about to embark on a gargantuan recruitment drive for mentors, seeking a whopping 800 professionals from across all sectors to help roll out The Big Idea to 4,000 students next year. Kim Mackenzie-Doyle from Carlow says creative thinking is a much-needed skill required by society and industry but has not been taught in Irish schools until now. The designer founded the multi-award-winning, free, creative-thinking programme for 15 to 16-year-olds in 2020 to bridge the gap between industry and education. “Creativity is a much-needed skill required by society and industry, yet it's not taught in our schools. And when I say creativity, I don't mean art. I mean using creative thinking to solve the biggest problems that face society,” says Kim. More than 2,000 students were supported by 400 Big Idea mentors this year. The mentor list reads as a who's-who of the innovation scene in Ireland with tech gurus, designers, creative directors, financial advisors, entrepreneurs, engineers, scientists, architects, educators, graphic designers, legal experts, marketing and brand specialists and more taking part. Mentors volunteered from innovative companies such as Stripe, Ikea, Bord Gáis Energy, UCC, MSD, Aerogen, Primark, Microsoft, Accenture and Deloitte to name a few. Kim says creativity is undervalued and misunderstood in Ireland. “When people think about creativity, they think about the arts. Being an artist is quite different to being creative. Artists make art of their choice from their inspiration. Creativity is everywhere and is fundamental to progress, in industry, society and education,” she says. She says that creativity thrives in collaborative settings which is why a diverse range of mentors steps up the learning for the students. “The more diversity the better. People with different experiences and backgrounds add so much richness to creative collaboration, proving that two or more heads are better than one.” Teaching the creative process Kim, who designed the world's best-selling computer mouse – the Logitech MX305 – while she was working at Design Partners, says the creative process is a step-by-step approach, which is why it can be taught. However, she fears that Ireland needs to put more time into creative education. “On a national scale, not investing in creativity will dampen Ireland's innovative spark. That's why we need programmes like The Big Idea so we can be proactive, focus on the issues that need solutions and teach and engage creative and critical thinking to come up with big ideas to solve national and global issues – now and in the future.” The winning Big Idea 2022 came from a student team at St Leo's College in Carlow with their app which uses QR codes to give recycling instructions with an integrated recycling reward scheme. “The other Big Ideas this year were incredible such as flatpack wind turbines, sustainable housing domes, an LGBTQ+ social media platform, a youth centre designed by teens for teens to promote positive mental health and a disease tracker app. While all of the projects and ideas were fantastic, we are also interested in the creative process that the students follow for the programme. How they arrived at their idea is just as important as the idea itself. But of course, we would love to see the students develop their ideas,” says Kim. Kim is also a member of the Design Skills Implementation Group as part of the Expert Group on Future Skills Needs. She is representing education in a multi-sector approach to address the national shortage of digital, product and strategic design professionals. The group recently published ‘Together for Design – Year in Review 2021-2022', a report which focuses on the design skills required by Irish enterprises from 2020 to 2025. The Big Idea encourages more into creative thinking, design professions The Big Idea was highlighted as one of...

Hear from Eila Kreivi, Chief Sustainable Finance Advisor at the European Investment Bank, as we take a closer look at the EU Taxonomy, including what it is and isn't, how it developed, and what it means for the future of sustainable finance. A key challenge with tackling climate change is how to channel the vast amount of private sector investment towards activities that are ‘green' or transitioning to green.  Taxonomies are potentially useful, setting out definitions and thresholds for activities to count as green. But although taxonomies have the potential to improve market clarity and reduce ‘greenwash', they are resource intensive to construct and are open to misuse. The EU Taxonomy for Sustainable Finance is one of the most ambitious green taxonomies in the world, and has been the subject of much debate (and confusion) since its ratification in 2020. That's why in today's episode, we'll set the record straight on what the EU taxonomy does, what it doesn't do, and how what it means for financial professionals, including: The history of the Taxonomy and its high-level objectives, How the Taxonomy's implementation is shaped by both science and politics, How the Taxonomy may evolve in the future.   Links from today's discussion: European Investment Bank (EIB) homepage: https://www.eib.org/en/index.htm International Capital Markets Association (ICMA) homepage: https://www.icmagroup.org European Commission – The High-Level Expert Group on Sustainable Finance's reports: https://ec.europa.eu/info/publications/sustainable-finance-high-level-expert-group_en ‘Do no significant harm' - Technical Guidance by the EU Commission - https://ec.europa.eu/info/sites/default/files/2021_02_18_epc_do_not_significant_harm_-technical_guidance_by_the_commission.pdf Mark Campanale on the Climate Risk podcast (discusses the EU Taxonomy at 00:16:08) - https://www.garp.org/podcast/net-zero-supply-side-issue-cr-220303 European Banking Authority on bank reporting standards for environmentally sustainable activities - https://www.eba.europa.eu/eba-advises-commission-kpis-transparency-institutions%E2%80%99-environmentally-sustainable-activities European Commission – Platform on Sustainable Finance: https://ec.europa.eu/info/business-economy-euro/banking-and-finance/sustainable-finance/overview-sustainable-finance/platform-sustainable-finance_en European Commission – International Platform on Sustainable Finance: https://ec.europa.eu/info/business-economy-euro/banking-and-finance/sustainable-finance/international-platform-sustainable-finance_en Speaker Bio Eila Kreivi, Chief Sustainable Finance Advisor, European Investment Bank (EIB) Eila took up her current position at the EIB in February 2022.

The recent commitment by 175 UN nations to end plastic pollution waste is being hailed as an historic moment and a huge global step in the right direction. Earlier this month, Heads of State, Ministers for the environment and other representatives, including New Zealand, endorsed a resolution at the UN Environment Assembly in Kenya. The aim is to draft a legally-binding treaty by 2024 - to stop the proliferation of plastic. But what does this mean in practice, and what is achievable from this large global commitment?.

By Evan Barnard The concept of climate security is decades-old, but a new sense of urgency and a renewed interest in the concept have developed over recent years, not least due to the efforts of CSR's Center for Climate and Security. Climate change initially became a formal security focus for the U.S. after the dissolution of the Soviet Union, when military efforts began diverting from the nuclear arms race and standoff. Now, the field is rapidly developing and receiving greater attention. The inclusion of a climate security session at the recent U.S.-hosted Leaders Summit on Climate suggests that world leaders are considering climate change a security risk in major diplomatic contexts. The Leaders Summit on Climate was just one of this year's numerous high-level meetings emphasizing climate security, including the Munich Security Conference, a UN Security Council high-level debate on climate and security, and the widely-anticipated COP26 conference in November. Today, we are sharing the first in a series of three podcasts reflecting on the upcoming 2021 World Climate and Security Report from the Expert Group of the International Military Council on Climate and Security, which builds upon the group's 2020 World Climate and Security Report, which was released at that year's Munich Security Conference. The report provides an update on the status of global and regional climate security factors, and details what climate experts predict will be the most important aspects of climate security. Before the Leaders Summit on Climate, I discussed climate security priorities for the military and climate diplomacy with the Honorable Sherri Goodman. Ms. Goodman is a senior strategist and advisory board member at the Center for Climate and Security, chair of the board at the Council on Strategic Risks, secretary general of the International Military Council on Climate and Security, and senior fellow at the Wilson Center. At the inception of the field of climate security, she served as the first deputy undersecretary of defense for environmental security from 1993 to 2001. The discussion included why the Department of Defense must cement a reputation as an environmental and clean energy leader and how the military is already taking steps toward resilience. Ms. Goodman believes the security sector will have an important role in the global effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and adapt to climate change. The military industrial complex has an enormous carbon footprint, so the military should lead by example in emissions reduction and clean energy adoption. Militaries can make much greater progress toward these goals by working cooperatively. Most importantly, innovation will enable the military to develop and implement clean energy and other technologies, further leading by example and building a climate domain awareness. Given the social, economic, political, and national security implications of accelerating climate change, the time to take action and mitigate and adapt for climate resilience is now. Ms. Goodman suggests an integrated, societal approach like the “Three Ds:” development, diplomacy, and defense. Solutions must be locally-based, because there is no one-size-fits-all solution to conflicts with climate as a factor. In a 2007 CNA Military Advisory Report, Ms. Goodman coined the term “threat multiplier.” The term was used multiple times, including by Special Envoy for Climate John Kerry, during the Leaders Summit on Climate in terms of security risks. The term describes how climate change aggravates existing threats around the world. Modern examples include the melting Arctic Ocean, where a smaller, thinner icecap is translating to both economic and national security opportunities for Arctic nations like the U.S. and Russia as well as interested traders like China. These Arctic economic and military opportunities are sculpting a new geostrategic and geopolitical arena.

Stefan and Michael interview Henrik Österblom. Henrik is the Science Director of the Stockholm Resilience Center and a Professor at the University of Stockholm in Sweden. He has a PhD in Marine Ecology from the Department of Systems Ecology at Stockholm University, and a Master's Degree in Behavioural Ecology from the Department of Zoology at Uppsala University. He is interested in marine ecosystems and ways to improve ocean stewardship. Starting as a seabird ecologist, with a particular interest in social interactions between alcids, he has worked on understanding how the Baltic Sea is managed, how international collaboration emerged to address non-compliance in Southern Ocean fisheries, and how transnational corporations shape the present and future ocean. Ongoing work is focusing on the role of science in society and the cultural evolution of global prosocial behavior. He has worked at the Swedish Museum of Natural History, and as Special Advisor to the Swedish Government in the Secretariat for the Environmental Advisory Council. Österblom has facilitated the Keystone Dialogues, a global co-production project including major private actors in global seafood, which has resulted in the establishment of the Seafood Business for Ocean Stewardship (SeaBOS) initiative, aimed to transform global seafood towards more sustainable practices. This project is funded by the Walton Family Foundation, the David and Lucile Packard Foundation, and the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation. He is also principal investigator of project New solutions to marine problems, aimed at accelerating marine ecosystem knowledge through the use of autonomous drones and artificial intelligence and funded by the Marianne and Marcus Wallenberg Foundation. Österblom is a member of the Expert Group for the High Level Panel for a Sustainable Ocean Economy and member of the IMBER Human Dimensions Working Group. He serves on the international advisory board of the South American Institute for Resilience and Sustainability Studies (SARAS²), as board member of Race for the Baltic, and as chairman of the SeaBOS Fundraising foundation.
