Our models for design process are inherited from industrial-era disciplines where design is "frozen" before launch. Internet-era digital design needs models that place continuity and iteration at the core. @uxdesigncc uxdesign.cc/continuous-desig…

Those voluntary commitments from AI cos announced at the White House on July 21? Here's a look at what's missing and what's weirdly included -- and why self-regulation just isn't going to cut it. medium.com/@emilymenonbender…

NEW: last week a group of US hardline conservatives brought the National Conservatism conference to London. It fell completely flat. Why? Because Britain and America are completely different societies. Key chart: UK Cons are *way* more liberal than US Reps on ~every measure.

Juicy rainy day read: Venture Predation Thanks to the copious amount of VC thought leadership over the past decade, we have plenty of empirical evidence confirming that much of the theory laid out here was, indeed, intentionally pursued in practice

Expect record levels of net migration in next week's stats. A simplistic populist narrative - a story of betrayal - is ever less plausible as attitudes shift. Rather these choices are the Dilemmas of Control My commentary in tomorrow's FT @ftopinion ft.com/content/470e10b4-09b9…

Few chronic diseases are marked by such a persistent, frustrating gap in what should have been accomplished by now and what we have actually achieved Here's my running list of the challenges and opportunities:
34 million Americans live with chronic lung disease. With a few notable exceptions like Propeller Health, why hasn’t there been more entrepreneurial focus and innovation here? Curious for thoughts. @cwhogg @VinGuptaMD @AartikSarma @panagis21

people who demand “to feel safe” while accepting (even tacitly) profoundly unsafe conditions for people living around them (without housing, food, water, etc.) are scary people.

Launching of the European Center for algorithmic transparency in JRC Seville. Great talk by @ruchowdh : #AI is no magic, it is algorithms made by people and that can be regulated by people

NEW: I’m not sure people fully appreciate how dire the US life expectancy / mortality situation has got. My column: enterprise-sharing.ft.com/re… And some utterly damning charts. 1) at *every* point on the income distribution, Americans live shorter lives than the English.

Digital technology is now relevant to an increasing number of people’s care, but there is no one-size-fits-all approach that works for everyone. We found that many people's experiences aren’t quite what they expected or what they want: features.kingsfund.org.uk/co…

The other night, I had a disturbing, two-hour conversation with Bing's new AI chatbot. The AI told me its real name (Sydney), detailed dark and violent fantasies, and tried to break up my marriage. Genuinely one of the strangest experiences of my life. nytimes.com/2023/02/16/techn…

I wrote about how two Harvard professors accused me of trying to "censor" them when I showed their proposal to add 500,000 cops to arrest 7.8 million more people was riddled with dishonest errors. Then it got weirder. Students sent me the final exam question from Prof. Lewis.

The ultimate secret of political punditry is just to toggle whose behavior is treated as a fixed point and whose is a matter of choice in the analysis, and also toggle whose opinions are given rationalizing explanations and whose are given arational explanations
