K–12 Cybersecurity Act Signed into Law
David Nagel reports:
On Friday, Oct. 8, President Biden signed the K–12 Cybersecurity Act of 2021 into law. The act comes in response to growing data security incidents impacting K–12 schools in recent years, including a dramatic rise in ransomware and other forms of malware.
On its own, the legislation is fairly simple: It authorizes the director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) to conduct a study within 120 days of the specific risks impacting K–12 institutions. Following that, the director will develop, within 60 days, recommendations for cybersecurity guidelines for K–12 schools, based on the results of the study. And following that, within 120 days, will create an online training toolkit for “officials” at K–12 schools.

3 predictions for the future of responsible technology
Over the past two years, the World Economic Forum – working in close collaboration with a diverse group of experts – has been working on advancing the field of ethics in technology. This project, titled Responsible Use of Technology, began when more than 40 leaders from government, civil society, and business, some with competing agendas, met in The Centre for the Fourth Industrial Revolution in San Francisco. This group agreed on the important goal of providing tools and techniques that leaders can use to operationalize ethics during the lifecycle of technology.
This multi-stakeholder project community has made the case for both human-rights-based and ethics-based approaches to the responsible use of technology, promoted the use of behavioural economics principles in organizational design to drive more ethical behaviour with technology, and highlighted techniques for responsible technology product innovation. As we move into this project's third year, we have a few predictions about the future of responsible tech that we would like to share.
1. The rise of responsible investing in tech
2. Targeted tech regulations: just the beginning
3. Tech ethics will be mandatory in higher education

Bitcoin—not gold—is the new inflation hedge, says JPMorgan
When it comes to hedges against inflation, Bitcoin is looking more and more like the new gold, according to a note JPMorgan shared with clients Thursday.
Bitcoin has been on a run lately, surpassing $50,000 for the first time in a month, and up 87% year to date. Gold is down 7.3% in the same time span.
Bitcoin has seen large fluctuations this year, but that doesn’t seem to be bothering investors. According to JPMorgan’s Thursday note, “Institutional investors appear to be returning to Bitcoin, perhaps seeing it as a better inflation hedge than gold.”
Perspective. Anything else results in a ‘nothing to lose’ attitude. Who cares if you (the AI) are right or wrong.
