New EDPB Guidelines (Jan 2025) introduce "pseudonymisation domains" - defining WHO should be prevented from re-identifying data.
That changes everything for AI training datasets and biometric processing.

๐Ÿค– AI systems make life-altering decisions about us dailyโ€”loans, jobs, healthcareโ€”yet we canโ€™t see how they think. When algorithms judge humans, transparency isnโ€™t luxury, itโ€™s a fundamental right. We need explainable AI that serves humanity, not the reverse.

Your "digital twin" knows you better than you know yourself.Every click, purchase, and heartbeat is tracked. We're creating perfect digital replicas without consent. The question isn't whether this tech is impressive (it is) but whether we're okay being permanently surveilled.

We enter the era of Agentic AIโ€”a shift that challenges legal, ethical, and social foundations.

If AI canโ€™t explain its decisions, how can we trust it?

Explainability isnโ€™t a luxury โ€” itโ€™s a foundation for transparency, accountability, and human oversight.

XAI isnโ€™t optional. Itโ€™s essential.
