I am giving my inaugural lecture as Professor of Technology Law and Policy @laws.ucl.ac.uk on 26 Nov, in-person & online. The topic: 'high dimensional data law' — how data protection is (or is not) coping with text, images and complex 'content' generally. Registration: www.ucl.ac.uk/laws/events/...

I guess it could also just be about typical #antitrust lock in; why pay yet more for other firms' tokens when you get copilot "free" with your office software... But still, some of the sectors addressed by #cyborgWorkers make enough money individuals have their own licenses to better products…

Great #cyborgworkers talk mystified me how Microsoft is convincing managers to get us to do unwaged labour trying to find a use for copilot. IIRC in the 20C there were actually kickbacks from Microsoft to heads of IT that brought Microsoft in. Could that still be going on? #AIEthics #antitrust
