@rk_process9 #ChatGPT has sparked a global belief in #AI and its capabilities to replace humans. However, affluent individuals and businesses seek exclusive access to customized AI models rather than using the tools or #platforms that are publicly available.
2/n
With exclusivity, large businesses would be able to train these #AI models using years of their collected #data. This is understandable, as these individuals and businesses have reached #success by thinking and acting differently from their competitors.

Here is how #platforms die: first, they are good to their users; then they abuse their users to make things better for their business customers; finally, they abuse those business customers to claw back all the value for themselves. Then, they die. 1/

I call this #enshittification, and it is a seemingly inevitable consequence arising from the combination of the ease of changing how a platform allocates value, combined with the nature of a "two sided market." 3/

In #JPM2023 news, $NSTG NanoString presented on January 11, 2023. Started in single-cell gene expression, now expanding into #SpatialBiology. They see a $3B+$3B market opportunity both on the NGS-based and the Imaging-based tech respectively.
The GeoMx is the NGS-based spatial biology solution, akin to the 10X Genomics Visium (and Visium HD in the future), with 25+ instruments in the pipe. CosMx is the imaging-based equivalent (Xenium in 10x portfolio), with about 80 instruments already in the pipe.
Lots of slides to describe CosMx, which is the newest and fastest growing instrument for $NSTG NanoString. High Plex, up to 1000-plex RNA assay, but also does Protein, FFPE Compatible, Tunable Throughput, Complete Informatics (AtoMx). Now 180 cummulative orders.

'Every year should be the year of youth. Their figures double the normal unemployment in Europe, and in some member states the situation is worse. And then they often lack proper working conditions, harming their living conditions'

'#Traineeships are great as a transition to the labour market. But multiplication of traineeships are not a substitute for proper employment. And traineeships are a learning opportunity, not a tool for cheap labour'

'Many young people are working in the #GigEconomy. It might be a good way to get a job but in many cases especially on #platforms, they have no social protection, they are underpaid. They must have proper and decent working conditions and pay'

📢#MiCA is complete!

The landmark #crypto regulation sets out uniform 🇪🇺 requirements for offerors of #cryptoassets and service providers (#CASPs) to apply for authorisation in the Single Market.

Even though a better agreement was close last week, 🇫🇷 vetoed it during the 🇪🇺 MS intervention period & raised concerns on USD-denominated #stablecoins used as a "means of #exchange", suggesting a return to their restriction when used for #settlement purposes ❗️

2/22
The compromise was to at least clarify that USD-#stablecoins used for spot #trading would NOT be captured.

The final text was approval by #COREPER yesterday and @EP_Economics will do it on 10/10. Final adoption by Ministers and the Parliament’s Plenary will be end of Oct.

Finally, the #GoldacreReview is published! (During Parliamentary Easter holidays, mid-ping-pong on the #HealthAndCareBill...)

It's 221 pages - each PDF page is a double page spread - so this could be a lo-o-o-ong [Thread].

Here goes...
First point to note, in the Terms of Reference (p5), is that this is about "access to #NHSdata by #researchers, #commissioners, and #innovators" - i.e. #Planning and #CommercialReUse - so it is directly relevant to the operation of millions of people's #NationalDataOptOuts... Terms of reference for the review  1. How do we facilitate a
"185 wide-ranging recommendations for us to explore", says @sajidjavid (p6). Gulp! Time for some coffee...

"systems that ensure #underrepresented groups are well represented" may (partly) refer to this "landmark review", which got off to a slow start:

If you haven’t read @USTreasury report on money laundering in #art world, do so this weekend. #NFTs in clear sight - and not just digital art! First (?) step to #FinCEN rules requiring #KYC and much more under the #BSA. @CoinDesk summary flawless. But read the rest. 1/7
@USTreasury report puts #NFTs in full view of policymakers. Not just #artNFTs. We predicted this focus a year ago as well as focus on issue of “innocent” #artist receiving “dirty money” royalties on resale - which is flagged in this report. 2/7
@USTreasury says some NFT platforms may already be subject to FinCEN rules “depending on the characteristics of the NFTs that they offer.” Not limited to, and not excluding #artNFTs. Immediate compliance obligations - no if and when @SEC finishes its exchange rules. 3/7

📣🚨 New article🚨📣

Do digital #ecosystems render traditional market definition (TMD) obsolete? In our new @EU_ScienceHub empirical WP (bit.ly/3DefTti) we argue that this approach is not obsolete, but needs to be complemented with alternative ones. Here is why 👇🧵
First of all, 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗲𝗰𝗼𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺𝘀? “A set of actors with varying degrees of multilateral, 𝘯𝘰𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘤 complementarities that are not fully hierarchically controlled" (@jacobides, @CarmeloCennamo, & @AnnabelleGawer, 2018, emphasis added). Image
⚠ Vocabulary caveats. In the paper:

a) "nongeneric complementarities in consumption'' = "demand-side linkages"

b) ''traditional market definition'' = ''substitutability approach''

This is EVP Margrethe @Vestager speech "Democratic values in a digitalised world" @HumboldtUni 25.10.21. It explains rationales, set up basis for what I think will be a successful #EuropeanDigitalLaw! A speech that will continue to resonate for us #Thread ec.europa.eu/commission/com…
Late 1990: large platforms “emerged and started organizing the internet for what would soon become millions of users around the world.” For 1st time "the platforms acted as global “match-makers” B2C. With “ever-growing match-making” platforms have power, & control. 1/1

Hmm. I don't think anyone is claiming @Facebook is *solely* responsible for #antivax #misinformation, but it cannot be disputed the #platforms have been major contributors.

#Facebook can't have it both ways; to refuse to #apologise or accept any #responsibility, but then to...
...imply that what it is doing is helping 'solve the problem' (even if it is!) simply underlines @Facebook's chronic lack of #accountability & #SelfAwareness.

"Look how good we are for clearing up some of the sewage we pump out" is more an insult than any sort of justification.
Excellent #counterpoint [Thread] with plenty of references, on the wider growth of #misinformation networks in the #antivax space:

So if one-fifth of @Facebook's employees work on #AR/#VR, have all of them done a stint as a content #moderator? And given its toxic business model why doesn't #Facebook have at least as many *employees* (not contractors) working on #ContentModeration as it does AR?
Also, whether you believe #data '#TheNewOil' or that a better analogy is #ToxicWaste, for #BigTech / the #platforms the result's the same.

Using ML/DL/AI/AR/VR to extract value involves energy-intensive processing and doesn't factor in other externalities like cultural damage...
