O ministro Flávio Dino, do Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF), cobrou mais informações da Advocacia-Geral da União para avaliar o pedido de liberação de emendas da Saúde. Mais cedo, o ministro negou outro pedido feito pelo Senado. A decisão colocou o Senado Federal, pela primeira vez, como potencial alvo das investigações na destinação destes recursos. O diretor da CNN em Brasília, Daniel Rittner, e Beatriz Rey, cientista política e pesquisadora da Universidade de São Paulo e da Fundação Popvox, comentam o assunto.
In this episode, Kevin speaks with with the influential tech thinker Tim O'Reilly, founder and CEO of O'Reilly Media and popularizer of terms such as open source and Web 2.0. O'Reilly, who co-leads the AI Disclosures Project at the Social Science Research Council, offers an insightful and historically-informed take on AI governance. Tim and Kevin first explore the evolution of AI, tracing its roots from early computing innovations like ENIAC to its current transformative role Tim notes the centralization of AI development, the critical role of data access, and the costs of creating advanced models. The conversation then delves into AI ethics and safety, covering issues like fairness, transparency, bias, and the need for robust regulatory frameworks. They also examine the potential for distributed AI systems, cooperative models, and industry-specific applications that leverage specialized datasets. Finally, Tim and Kevin highlight the opportunities and risks inherent in AI's rapid growth, urging collaboration, accountability, and innovative thinking to shape a sustainable and equitable future for the technology. Tim O'Reilly is the founder, CEO, and Chairman of O'Reilly Media, which delivers online learning, publishes books, and runs conferences about cutting-edge technology, and has a history of convening conversations that reshape the computer industry. Tim is also a partner at early stage venture firm O'Reilly AlphaTech Ventures (OATV), and on the boards of Code for America, PeerJ, Civis Analytics, and PopVox.

O índice de reeleição de prefeitos ficou em cerca de 80% nesta eleição. E o cabo eleitoral mais determinante foram as emendas parlamentares. Dentro do universo dos 178 municípios que receberam o maior volume de recursos de emendas PIX desde 2020 – um grupo que está sendo analisado com lupa pela Controladoria Geral da União – 93% dos prefeitos que tentaram se reeleger venceram nas urnas. Um dos casos mais emblemáticos é o de Macapá (AP), que somou R$ 129 milhões em recursos e viu Dr. Furlan (MDB) ser reeleito com 85% dos votos, o maior índice entre capitais do país. Para explicar como essa distribuição de verbas do orçamento federal impactou o pleito municipal, Natuza Nery conversa com Dimitrius Dantas, repórter do jornal O Globo que se debruçou sobre esses dados. Participa deste episódio também a cientista política Beatriz Rey, pesquisadora da Universidade de Lisboa e da Fundação Popvox, que analisa ainda o novo texto apresentado no Congresso para tentar regulamentar o festival de emendas.
Desde 2019, um dispositivo facilitou – e muito – a transferência de recursos do Orçamento federal para prefeituras e governos estaduais. Com as emendas individuais de transferência especial, deputados e senadores decidem para onde vão os recursos sem precisar justificar ou informar o destino do dinheiro: a transferência é tão simples que recebeu o apelido de “emenda pix”. No início do mês, o ministro do Supremo Flávio Dino suspendeu o pagamento dessas emendas, que já passaram de R$ 4 bilhões apenas neste ano; uma decisão que ainda irá passar pelo plenário virtual do STF, mas que já fomenta reações no Congresso. Para explicar o impacto dos bilhões gastos em emendas parlamentares para o Orçamento da União e apontar os problemas de transparência na liberação desses recursos, Natuza Nery entrevista a cientista política Beatriz Rey, que faz pós-doutorado na USP e é pesquisadora da Universidade de Lisboa e da Fundação Popvox.

As the pandemic drags on, House leadership is pushing a rules change to allow members to vote in-person on behalf of members not there. But some say that plan doesn’t go far enough and have pushed to hold votes, hearings and markups through online video platforms. To test the idea, former members of Congress and good-government groups tried mock hearings. For more Federal News Network’s Jory Heckman spoke with Marci Harris, the CEO and co-founder of PopVox. But first you’ll hear from the policy director at Demand Progress, Daniel Schuman.

Using Congress.gov and Popvox.com, The FAIRtax Guys look at some of the distractions Congress has which prevents it from working on REAL tax reform. An examination of some of the frivolous proposed legislation shows why Congress seems to avoid the FAIRtax in favor of naming Post Offices and trying to get the President's tax returns.
Marci Harris joins The Great Battlefield podcast to discuss civic tech and how POPVOX is providing tech tools for Congress to see who supports or opposes upcoming bills.
The FAIRtax Guys give thanks to the many, many people who support and promote the FAIRtax across the nation. This includes volunteers, politicians, website creators, interviewees and a number of business owners.

What's the Future? The “Oracle of Silicon Valley” shares his contrarian thoughts about technology, capitalism, and preparing for the big shifts on the horizon. This week we're talking with futurist and author of the book “WTF: What's the Future?” Tim O'Reilly. Although he's not a manufacturer himself, his insightful perspectives are useful for anyone who wants to be prepared for a future driven by technology trends. You might not have heard Tim's name before, but you probably know his work. He popularized terms like open source and Web 2.0. As an early evangelist for the maker movement, he and his firm O'Reilly Media started Make Magazine and Maker Faire. And he's been an early champion of the Internet of Things. Going way back, he wrote about the world wide web before most of us ever heard about it, back in 1994. I was curious, given Tim's superpowers in identifying trends, where he thinks technology is going today and how it will impact the future of work and business. We talk about his thoughts on the role of capitalism and Silicon Valley. He also shares ideas from his book and many others (links below). I ask Tim how to predict the future, and he tells me that's the wrong question. But, he gives us excellent tips for identifying trends and some really provocative ideas about our role as entrepreneurs in developing a just and abundant world for everyone. He's a deep thinker, and it's no surprise he's been called The Oracle of Silicon Valley. This conversation was recorded live at Cross Campus in Downtown LA, as part of the LiveTalks: Business series. Books mentioned: WTF: What's the Future – Tim O'Reilly Tao Te Ching – Lao Tzu Who Gets What and Why – Alvin Ross Why Nations Fail – Daron Acemoglu & James Robinson Murder in the Cathedral – TS Eliot Quotes: “The future is here, just not evenly distributed” – William Gibson “Social Responsibility of a business is to Increase its Profits” – Milton Friedman Learn more: http://oreillymedia.com @timoreilly Tim O'Reilly has a history of convening conversations that reshape the computer industry. If you've heard the term “open source software” or “web 2.0” or “the Maker movement” or “government as a platform” or “the WTF economy,” he's had a hand in framing each of those big ideas. He is the founder, CEO, and Chairman of O'Reilly Media, and a partner at early stage venture firm O'Reilly AlphaTech Ventures (OATV). He is also on the boards of Maker Media (which was spun out from O'Reilly Media in 2012), Code for America, PeerJ, Civis Analytics, and PopVox. His book, WTF: What's the Future and Why It's Up to Us, was released by Harper Collins in October 2017. For more information, check out the show notes at http://makeitinla.org/timoreilly.
Future Squared with Steve Glaveski - Helping You Navigate a Brave New World
Tim O’Reilly popularised the terms Open Source and Web 2.0 He is the founder and CEO of O’Reilly Media which delivers online learning, publishes books, runs conferences, urges companies to create more value than they capture, and tries to change the world by spreading and amplifying the knowledge of innovators.Tim has a history of convening conversations that reshape the computer industry. In 1998, he organized the meeting where the term “open source software” was agreed on, and helped the business world understand its importance. In 2004, with the Web 2.0 Summit, he defined how “Web 2.0” represented not only the resurgence of the web after the dot com bust, but a new model for the computer industry, based on big data, collective intelligence, and the internet as a platform. In 2009, with his “Gov 2.0 Summit,” he framed a conversation about the modernization of government technology that has shaped policy and spawned initiatives at the Federal, State, and local level, and around the world. He has now turned his attention to implications of AI, the on-demand economy, and other technologies that are transforming the nature of work and the future shape of the business world. This is the subject of his new book WTF: What’s the Future and Why It’s Up to Us.In addition to his role at O’Reilly Media, Tim is a partner at early stage venture firm O’Reilly AlphaTech Ventures (OATV) and on the boards of Maker Media, Code for America, PeerJ, Civis Analytics, and PopVox. Expect to learn a hell of a lot in today’s conversation and prepare to listen to it multiple times to capture as much value from it as you can. Three key things you will learn: Tim’s views on net neutrality What companies absolutely need to be doing to best prepare for the new economy; and What Tim’s views are on whether the fourth industrial revolution will leave most of us unemployed or not Expect to learn that, and more, in this conversation, with the one and only Tim O’Reilly. Topics Discussed: The Book: What’s the Future and Why It’s Up To Us Whether companies like Amazon and Facebook are capturing more value than they’re creating and are they becoming dangerously monopolistic Why traditional maps of the world such as financial statements and short-term shareholder value need to be revisited What Tim thinks about the FCC winding back net neutrality What businesses need to think about to map out their business model for the next economy Will technology take our jobs?

What do self-driving cars, on-demand services, AI, and income inequality have in common? They are telling us, loud and clear, that we’re in for massive changes in work, business, and the economy. We are heading pell-mell towards a world being shaped by technology in ways that we don’t understand and have many reasons to fear. Just about everyone’s asking WTF? (“What the F*?”) but also, more charitably “What’s the future?”. Where is technology taking us? Is it going to fill us with astonishment or dismay? And most importantly, what is our role in deciding that future? How do we make choices today that will result in a world we want to live in? What is the future when more and more work can be done by intelligent machines instead of people, or only done by people in partnership with those machines? What happens to workers, and what happens to the companies that depend on their purchasing power? What’s the future of business when technology-enabled networks and marketplaces are better at deploying talent than traditional companies? What’s the future of education when on-demand learning outperforms traditional universities in keeping skills up to date? We are at a very dangerous moment in history. The concentration of wealth and power in the hands of a global elite is eroding the power and sovereignty of nation-states at the same time as globe-spanning technology platforms are enabling algorithmic control of firms, institutions, and societies, shaping what billions of people see and understand and how the economic pie is divided. At the same time, income inequality and the pace of technology change are leading to a populist backlash featuring opposition to science, distrust of our governing institutions, and fear of the future, making it ever more difficult to solve the problems we have created. The biggest changes are still ahead. Every industry and every organization will have to transform itself in the next decades, in multiple ways, or fade away. We need to ask ourselves whether the fundamental social safety nets of the developed world will survive the transition, and more importantly, what we will replace them with. We need a focused, high-level conversation about the deep ways in which global computer networks and platforms are transforming how we do business, how we work, and how we live. This talk frames that conversation. Tim O’Reilly is the founder and CEO of O’Reilly Media Inc. He publishes books, runs conferences, invests in early-stage startups, urges companies to create more value than they capture, and tries to change the world by spreading and amplifying the knowledge of innovators. Tim is also a partner at O’Reilly AlphaTech Ventures, an early-stage venture firm, and is on the boards of Code for America, Maker Media, PeerJ, Civis Analytics, and PopVox. Over the years, Tim has built a culture where sustainable innovation is a key tenet of business philosophy. His active engagement with technology communities both drives the company’s product development and informs its marketing. He graduated from Harvard in 1975 with a degree in Classics. He began working as a technical writer, and soon began writing and publishing his own books on technology topics. Since 1978, O’Reilly has been a chronicler and catalyst of leading-edge development, honing in on the most significant technology trends and galvanising their adoption by amplifying “faint signals” from tech innovators. His company is publisher of the iconic “animal books” for software developers, creator of the first commercial website (GNN), organiser of the summit meeting that gave the open source software movement its name, and he was a key figure in the “Web 2.0” renaissance after the original dot-com bubble burst. In 2009, with his “Gov 2.0 Summit,” he framed a conversation about the modernization of government technology that has shaped policy and spawned initiatives at the Federal, State, and local level, and around the world. He has now turned his attention to the implications of AI, the on-demand economy, and other technologies that are transforming the nature of work and the future shape of the business world.

We all have moments where we want to speak up about the laws we see being passed in our nation. West Tennessee native brother and sister Ben and Marci Harris have created a way to make this process easier with their company POPVOX.

The Cybersecurity Information Sharing Act of 2015 or CISA is expected to pass in the house tomorrow, October 27, 2015. The legislation claims to help with cybersecurity, but critics say otherwise. The bill is a reincarnation of SOPA and CISPA, which were previous failed attempts to pass similar legislation. CISA puts the department of homeland security in charge of massive data collection powers and provides legal immunity to corporations who share user data with the government. The law also allows DHS to share any data it captures through private sector sharing with any federal agency and even contractors.
