AI needs data. Privacy needs limits.

Consent, minimisation, and purpose limitations hold up in the age of LLMs and foundation models?

When data is fuel, who controls the pipeline?

Not everything that can be predicted should be.

AI’s power to anticipate behavior risks normalizing surveillance and control.

Prediction isn’t always progress.

Where do you draw the ethical line?

ISO/IEC 42001:2024 has been officially published.
It’s the first international standard for AI Management Systems (AIMS).

But what does it bring to the table for organizations developing or deploying AI?

AI doesn’t just reflect the world — it can amplify its distortions.
Bias and hallucinations aren’t glitches; they’re mirrors.
Auditing isn’t enough if data or goals are flawed.

How do you address bias and hallucinations in AI?

AI rules are emerging fast, but fragmented.
- EU: AI Act.
- OECD: Principles.
- ISO/IEC: Standards.

Governance is needed.
But so is interoperability.

If AI can’t explain its decisions, how can we trust it?

Explainability isn’t a luxury — it’s a foundation for transparency, accountability, and human oversight.

XAI isn’t optional. It’s essential.

Not all AI is intelligent.
Some models predict well but understand nothing.

Should we call it Artificial Pattern Recognition instead?

Words matter — especially in policy, ethics, and trust.

#AIUnpacked #LanguageMatters
April 22, 2025 at 9:00 AM
AI systems don’t “think” — they optimise.

We must stop projecting human traits onto models.

Anthropomorphising AI confuses users, skews expectations, and distorts accountability.

Precision in language isn’t pedantic. It’s essential.

🇪🇺 Culture & creativity matter — even in the age of AI.

Italy, Portugal & Spain call for action: GPAI must respect Europe’s cultural fabric.

Copyright, transparency, legal certainty — all on the table.

Privacy isn’t a bug in AI — it’s a boundary.

When models train on personal data, where does learning end and surveillance begin?

Technical power must meet legal and ethical restraints.

If AI can’t explain itself, can we really trust it?

Explainability isn’t just a technical add-on — it’s essential for accountability, compliance, and human oversight.

XAI is not a luxury. It’s a necessity.

Why does ISO/IEC 42001 matter?

✅ Bridges legal & technical governance (e.g., EU AI Act readiness)
✅ Builds internal accountability & trust
✅ Supports interoperability across jurisdictions

Could this become the GDPR moment for AI governance?

Thoughts welcome.

📘 Post 2/4 — Copyright & transparency

AI can generate — but at what cultural cost?

Europe urges protection of copyright & full disclosure of training data.

Transparency isn’t optional. It’s cultural justice.

📘 Post 3/4 — Standardization & opt-out

Creators need legal certainty, not guesswork.

🇪🇺 Standard identifiers & opt-out tools (per DSM Directive) are key to balance innovation & rights.

Standards are not bureaucracy — they are fairness at scale.
