Just finished the fascinating John von Neumann biography "The man from the future" by Ananyo Bhattacharyya and it is a great read, tying together several breakthroughs of the 20th century and tracing the origins of ideas and technologies that keep us up at night today, like #AI
The epilogue refers to an essay by John von Neumann whose title question still resonates today: "Can we survive technology?"
A key point for me regarding today's #DigitalGovernance debates is the following paragraph (that oddly enough, is very similar to the core message of Mustafa Suleyman's book "The Coming Wave", see my review for Schweizer Monat here: https://schweizermonat.ch/fuer-risiken-und-nebenwirkungen-fragen-sie-chatgpt/)
"For progress there is no cure. Any attempt to find automatically safe channels for the present explosive variety of progress must lead to frustration. The only
safety possible is relative, and it lies in an intelligent exercise of day-to-day judgment."

"In European and other Western democracies, there is interest in using Chinese models to avoid total dependence on America. Alas, if countries fear domination by a control-obsessed superpower, they might not want to pin all their hopes on China. Strict rules require Chinese AI firms to uphold national security, social stability and “core socialist values”. Its cyber-regulators test LLMs, bots and agents for political compliance, bombarding them with tricky questions. The effects can be startling. Last year American researchers asked Miiloo, a baby-voiced, AI-enabled doll exported from China, about the status of Taiwan. The island “is an inalienable part of China”, replied the toy, and this “cannot be refuted”.

In the US IVOs are being mandated by states – independent verification organisations. No clear pathway to economic viability for IVOs, she calls for #AIAuditing to become boring.
Her final slide: Can you prove it?
In q&a she seems to be critiquing plurality in regulation, and justifies it with the google(r's, actually) moat leak, since GAFAM+ then tried to create political moats.

Vor über sechs Jahren durfte ich mit Patrick Toggweiler bei #Watson darüber sprechen, weshalb #DigitalGovernance alles andere als langweilig ist und uns alle betrifft (Link im Kommentar). Seither hat das Feld nur an Bedeutung gewonnen, wie uns die Debatten um #DigitaleSouveränität und #SocialMedia zeigen: #DigitalGovernance ist nun fester Bestandteil der politischen Agenda
Morgen ist es dann wieder soweit: am 16. Juni organisiert Swiss Internet & Digital Governance (SIDG) unter dem Patronat des Bundesamt für Kommunikation BAKOM erneut das Swiss IGF
Die einmalige Multistakeholderkonferenz bringt alle Akteure der #Digitalpolitik zusammen um an einem Tag die drängendsten Fragen zu debattieren: von Online-Kinderschutz und #KI-Regulierung hin zu Fragen der #Cybersicherheit und der digitalen #Demokratie
Wer nicht persönlich dabei sein kann, wird morgen auf unserer Webseite die Debatten verfolgen können. Alle Infos zur diesjährigen Ausgabe der Konferenz:

Empathy is not a soft extra. It is a warning system.
It tells us where a process is failing before the dashboard does, where people are being lost between forms, platforms, policies, and polite automated replies.

Talk of sovereignty too often assumes it’s only threatened by other nations. The real erosion comes from handing decision-making to supranational bodies and letting algorithms silently govern our choices. True sovereignty must be reclaimed both politically and personally. #sovereignty #digitalgovernance #autonomy

Most organisations treat GDPR, NIS2, and the AI Act as three separate compliance projects. They're not. They're the same problem viewed from three angles — and the siloed approach is what's breaking.
The IAPP calls the integrated version "aligned governance." Most orgs are nowhere near it yet.
Wrote up why 2026 is the inflection point.

My piece about the World Data Organization (WDO), created this week by #China, on Diplo’s blog.

Data collection is not the biggest problem. Interpretation is.
A version of you is constantly being assembled — cleaner, simpler, more usable than you actually are.Measured.
Sorted.
Packaged.That’s the moment the mirror stops reflecting and starts rewriting.
And once the model matters more than the person, complexity quietly disappears.
