Weird, I thought they were trying to reduce needless government stuff.

Reduce link rot and make federal websites more efficient: A reset of happens every presidential changeover; federal government agencies and news orgs and everyone really just should stop linking to it.

Re: "[State CIOs] said data management is a major obstacle" in adopting AI (from ), then maybe AI at #3 and data management at #6 in their 2024 priorities is backwards? @chris_teale.

RT @govex_jhu: How will AI power our future? Check out #GovEx Senior Research Data Manager @technickle and Data Scientist Maeve Mulholland'….

When we are publishing data & metadata for GenAI consumption, since the data is already inherently biased, do we center equity through metadata? Are there patterns / best practices for this?.

Counterpoint to the demands for machine-readable open data: maybe GenAI would use it more effectively if we’d just left it in PDFs?.

“Kai-ohs” is I guess how we’re supposed to acronym Chief Artificial Intelligence Officers (CAIO)? I know it’s not the same spelling but CIAOs (chows) has a certain ring to it.

Internection: a portmanteau invented by my son to mean internet connection. As in “Dad: I can’t play multiplayer. Can you please fix my internection?”.

Am I overreacting when I feel like making a stock image black girl the poster child for "misbehavior" in Florida (to a government & policy audience, no less) is a bad idea?

.@ojwise and his team are asking very smart questions about evolution of open data towards AI-readiness. @CommerceGov are asking the public.for input. -

Question: as a resident of the US, what apps can I not access right now in the Apple App Store because of US regulatory restrictions? (Not looking for those that just aren’t available to me if their audience is elsewhere or they are regulated by their home countries.).

AI can't do it yet, so we want a human to help us shape a community of government leaders using AI responsibly. Join our team!

As a coauthor of one of the AI toolkits discussed in this academic meta-analysis, I found this interesting to read. Thank you @richmondywong @mmadaio et al for your work on it.

The hype cycle is real, y’all.

A sad day for California; @JoyBonaguro leaves some very big boots to fill.

Hot take: most parents of younger kids could probably do a decent job at AI prompt engineering.

Good to see some counterbalance to the very valid concerns about generative AI and hallucination/deliberate misinformation.

Also does the lookout have bathrooms for the pups? Or do they just “go” outside between takes?.

I personally got snarled in the IRS implementation of id me a couple of years ago, and I’m arguably a highly savvy technologist. Does the government outsource passports or drivers licenses? Nope. But it does for official identity in digital spaces.

All of this thread. Not saying gov can do this better, but some things should not be outsourced in the name of cost savings and innovation. It creates a situation where everyone can point the finger of blame away from themselves and not be held accountable.
