#bfh_transform — Public Fediverse posts

The #MeLODy project is a POC to illustrate how structured statistical data can be integrated into a 🤖 chatbot, translating user prompts into SQL/API queries, which then process the data and return the results 📈

Current edition based on ChatGPT Plus, migration to an open source LLM promised. Source, videos, links: https://github.com/statistikstadtzuerich/melody #TRANSFORM25 #BFH_TRANSFORM

Very nice practical example by Benedikt Hitz-Gamper of using Linked Data to address Once-Only needs in knowledge management in communes.

Before we get to the technicalities of how metadata "float" to adapt to the available and statistically relevant context, let's not forget it is international agreements like the #TallinnDeclaration that anchor governments to providing reusable services. #BFH_TRANSFORM

Aiming to take the performance load away from the desktop or local department IT, moving computation into the cloud for real-time data pipelines, centralised governance and authentication. #HelloDATA being presented by Bedag & KAIO at #BFH_TRANSFORM today - we will explore this open source project hands on in a week at #DataHackdaysBE

Much data ≠ Much use.

Despite many successes in establishing #OpenGovernmentData and #DataGovernance practices in all branches and sectors of government, we are still facing three main challenges:

- Lack of central data strategy and strong leadership with vision #DatenStrategieBund
- A low general level of #dataliteracy, with more learning opportunities needed
- Interoperability and #FAIRdata Principles need further investment

Have you asked yourself if data is about:

🎁 Free access vs. transaction-ware?
🪙 Transparency vs. economic development?
🍪 False rationales?
🥤 What does "machine readable" really mean?

Stefan Kaufmann from @wikimediaDE presents a critique of the post-open-data era, reminding us that it is a side product of a healthy digital social contract. Pointing to the continued labors of @timberners_lee and many others in the long and continued struggle for digital autonomy. #BFH_TRANSFORM

At the town hall in Bern, representing #DataHackdaysBE today at the #BFH_TRANSFORM conference. I'm explaining the use of #OpenData for civic activism, and the new #HackIntegration research project on inclusion and teambuilding.

Supporting the BFH team, you can find me today at a stand showcasing past results and 2025 #hackathon challenges for this influential crowd 🐻
