As we argue, nothing less than a Directive will be able to provide workers & employers with the clarity needed to ensure wide-spread adoption of genuinely productivity-enhancing technology. Please share widely! x.com/JeremiasPrassl…

Is there another country in the world where the self hate is so deep that the biggest insult a government can come up with is to accuse someone of having the roots of a neighboring region that 50% of your country shares the same exact roots with?

"The report concludes that there is a reasonable basis to believe that members of the Ethiopian National Defense Force (ENDF), Amhara Special Forces, and Eritrean Defense Forces (EDF) committed genocide against Tigrayans." @NewlinesInst @JURISTnews 1/2 jurist.org/features/2024/…

At the height of Tigray War, hostile troops attempted to rape Monalisa Abraha at the time 18 yrs of age. They shot her limbs. She endured amputations, hunger, trauma of sexual violence. Today she sat for her university entrance exams. Well-done Monalisa. Resilient Tigray.

This is utterly illegal, disproportional & constitutes collective punishment. The 🇪🇹govt must fully restore the Internet service and ensure fundamental freedoms in the Amhara region and beyond. Check back the joint call of HRts Orgs here 👉accessnow.org/press-release/… #KeepItOn

A phenomenal project: @DAIRInstitute invited data workers, the often abused & neglected lifeblood of the AI industry, to conduct their own research into their communities & write about it in their own words. This is true participatory AI. Visionary work. data-workers.org

What is good scholarship to read on diaspora communities holding "progressive" views in their new home countries while perpetuating the most fascist views in their countries they immigrated from?
