Dutch universities rely on #BigTech for core processes, but at what cost? As the US shifts towards an anti-science climate, the risks of dependence on #Microsoft, #Google & #Amazon grow. It's time to build alternatives and reclaim digital sovereignty.

Wat gebeurt er als een van de politiek machtigste mannen ter wereld de controle krijgt over een van de meest invloedrijke technologieΓ«n op aarde, vraagt AlgoSoc scientific director @natalihelberger.bsky.social zich af in de brief, die op 13 februari verscheen in het NRC.

In the Dutch childcare benefit scandal, innocent people were wrongly accused and unable to defend themselves. AlgoSoc researcher Iris van Domselaar responds. Would the scandal have happened without AI? Did the rule of law fail victims? And has the problem been solved?
