The document discusses reasons why relying solely on market forces through "googlification" is not sufficient to provide access to legal information and law. It notes that information about markets is imperfect, not all government data is equally valuable, the value of government data changes unexpectedly, and the need for authority distorts the market. The document advocates that while making legal information available is necessary, it is not sufficient without also making law accessible, and that privacy is an important consideration.

Discusses how open data helps change the incentives from big, slow failures to small, fast failures, from which we can learn
Open Data Manchester's 'Data For Communities' presentation, given on 11 Oct 2019 for the Children's University. Demystifies data, explains what it is, what data is collected about us and our communities, and how we can use it for good.
Every Industrial revolution has seen the progression from people dominated design, build and production to a higher degrees of automation that has gone hand-in-hand with shortening timescales enabled by ever-more powerful technologies. However, at a fundamental level the process has remained the same, but it is now edging toward a continuum of evolution as opposed to a series of discrete jumps that often trigger company reorganizations. In concert, there is a realization abroad that it is no longer about the biggest, the strongest, the best, or the fittest, it is now all about the survival of the most adaptable.
By and large it is relatively easy to predict when and where tech change will occur and the likely outcomes, in terms of existing and future products and services, but how people, customers, companies and societies will react is an unsolved puzzle. On another plane, competition and threats may well occur outside the sector, from a direction managers are not looking, by entirely new mechanisms, and at a most critical time. These are all challenges indeed!
How to adapt to, and cope with these collective challenges is the focus of this presentation which is illustrated and supported by past and present industrial cases along with the experiences and methodologies of those who have driven/weathered this storm as well as those who failed. Many of the illustrations are automated and there are exemplar movies and segue inserts throughout.

How Machine Learning is Changing the Landscape of Search, Discovery and Engagement
Today’s consumers have more choices than ever and are less brand loyal than at any point in history. We’ll examine pivotal inflection points driven by consumers that influence search and data discovery. These directly affect what search engines rank and show in results, so you need to know what you can control and influence. Data about your business, products, and services remains one key area under-explored by most businesses, and digital knowledge management is proving to have a deep impact on consumer engagement, revenue, and business success.
SPLC 2019 Summit: Human Rights in Procurement: Modern Slavery & Human Traffic...SPLCouncil
Slides from Melanie Bower, Director of Compliance Management, Sumerra; Stacey Forman, Sustainable Procurement Coordinator, City of Portland, Oregon; Nora Neibergall, Senior Vice President and Corporate Secretary, Institute for Supply Management; Robert Stumberg, Professor of Law; Director, Harrison Institute for Public Law, Georgetown Law; presented at the Sustainable Purchasing Leadership Council’s 2019 Summit in Portland, OR.
No doubt Aldous Huxley and George Orwell would be pleased to see cameras and surveillance devices everywhere, just as they predicted, but they would then be amazed to find that we buy and install them and become upset if no one is watching! So the Dystopian futures they both predicted and feared are not here yet, but they might just be in the pipeline, and being built a device at a time by us!
Only 70 years ago close observation and surveillance was difficult and very expensive. Today, it is so very cheap, efficient, and everywhere: in our pockets; on our wrists; in our homes, offices, cars, trains, planes; in the streets and on the highways and major roads.
To some degree every country has embraced all the possibilities presented by the technology to make their societies safer and more progressive as organisms, but now here comes AI. Automatic voice, face, finger, eye, action, movement and habit recognition writ large along with all our messages, entertainment, work and recreation patterns monitored 24x7, so inference engines can check if we are good, bad, dangerous, safe, under threat and so on!
Some countries are now employing such technology to judge, sentence, and commit people for criminal acts and ant-social behaviours etc. At this point we have to proceed with care in the recognition that data errors ‘happen’ and human biases can be built in at the birth of such AI systems. Nothing is ever perfect - not people, and certainly not our machines, and we have to progressively drive out bias snd error…

Inclusive tech, (how) is that possible?Marion Mulder
Volgens The Institute For the Future gaan we een tijdperk tegemoet van Human-Machine Partnership, een tijd waar in mens en AI steeds meer gaan samenwerken. Ook zien ze, naast traditionele organisaties, een alternatief opkomen waarin we in communities gaan werken powered by algoritmes.
AI maar ook VR/AR gaan dus een steeds belangrijkere rol spelen. Daarom ben ik mij actief aan het oriënteren op o.a. AI ethics en GenderFreeTech en ben ik actief lid van Women In Voice en Women in AI met als doel een beter beeld te krijgen hoe we kunnen zorgen dat de technologie de we nu creëren en onze toekomst mede bepaalden een wereld creëren die inclusief en goed is voor iedereen. Ik neem jullie vandaag mee in mijn journey en learnings.

googlification is appealing. it plays to the idea the government is always clueless and hackers never are. there is an appealing air of liberation about it. it plays nicely alongside rights based arguments. it’s basically what Robinson, Felten et al argue in their gov’t and the invisible hand paper last year.
things are not that bad. government can do data well, and some parts of it do.
government release of bulk data is necessary. it isn’t sufficient. private enterprise will not make up the difference.
