📢 For now, we conclude that @Microsoft has not acquired control of @OpenAI under 🇪🇺 Merger Regulation.
We will keep monitoring the relationships between all key players in the AI sector, incl. Microsoft & OpenAI.

NEWS from me & @AndrewDesiderio
@cathymcmorris & @MariaCantwell have a deal on a bipartisan data privacy bill they plan to unveil next week.
The proposal would set a national data privacy standard, replacing assorted state standards. Companies would face limits on what data they can collect and use.
Another provision would allow individuals to sue "bad actors" for violating their privacy rights.
There also would be new data security standards to hold companies accountable if data is hacked or stolen

11/ I see the order as a strong *baseline* for what a comprehensive algorithmic fairness program should look like. Future companies should expect to be pressed on enrollments into the system. Future violators should be ready to accept independent assessors to ensure compliance.

DEAL ON AI! 🦾 After three days of trilogues, negotiators from Parliament & Council have finally reached a political agreement on the Artificial Intelligence Act! 👏
Caitlin Fennessy retweeted
#AIAct trilogue: it's a wrap! After 36 hours of intense negotiations, EU policymakers have reached a provisional deal on the world's first AI law. Much technical work remains, and it might take weeks to consolidate the text. More details to follow on the political agreement.
