Du hørte kanskje at NTB publiserte en KI-generert melding sist uke. Visste du at KI-sammendraget endret sikkerhetstrussel fra fiendtlige statlige aktører til ekstemvær og aldrende teknologi? Slik ideologisk vridning viser at KI-bias kan være en sikkerhetsrisiko. www.aftenposten.no/meninger/deb...

For 60 years, unclassified US defense and intelligence reports assessed security threats from environmental, #water, and #climate risks. These assessments are now being deleted, censored, and canceled. I document, annotate, and link to them here (first of 3 posts): www.gleick.com/blog/climate...

In two days, the Afghanistan Women’s National Football Team will be absent from the 2026 AFC Women’s Asian Cup Qualifiers draw. This marks the second World Cup-qualifying cycle from which the team has been excluded since 2021. FIFA must recognize, support Afghan women’s team in exile ✊ ⚽

Global: FIFA must recognize, support Afghan women's team in exile

FIFA should act to stop the ongoing discrimination against Afghan women footballers living in exile and facilitate their return to international competition

Tydelig svar fra UiBs rektor og rektorkandidat: UiB skal være tydelige forkjempere for den akademiske friheten ved å støtte UiB-forskere under press, jobbe nasjonalt og internasjonalt for å reverse endringer i USA og bygge beredskap for å sikre fri forskning i Norge og Europa, støtte kollegaer i USA

Et universitet er bare et universitet om det er fritt og uavhengig

Når verdens ledende forskningsnasjon og verdens beste universiteter rammes, angår det forskningen og universiteter globalt. Vi vil være tydelige forkjempere for den akademiske friheten.

Støtt fri forskning ved å skrive ut denne plakaten på et A4-ark, gå utenfor kontoret ditt kl 12 i dag og ta en selfie av deg selv med plakaten - så poster du det på sosiale medier med hashtag #standupforscience2025. Er du i Bergen så kom gjerne på Muséplassen kl 12. Dette er tiden for å si fra!!
