The Race to Archive Social Posts That May Prove Russian War Crimes
Painstaking new techniques for archiving social media posts could provide crucial evidence in future prosecutions.
IN EARLY APRIL, as Ukraine started to regain control of Bucha and other small towns northwest of Kyiv, appalling imagery began to spread on Telegram and other social networks. Photos and videos showed bodies in the streets and anguished survivors describing loved ones, civilians, killed by Russian soldiers. In Chernivtsi, in western Ukraine, attorney Denys Rabomizo carefully built an archive of the gruesome evidence. His aim: to preserve social media posts that could help prove Russian war crimes.
My ethics, of course.

Whose ethics should be programmed into the robots of tomorrow?
Will all robots think like Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg?
One way to instill ethics in AI is to have everyone vote on what robots should do in particular situations. But are values and morals really about what the majority want?
When we make moral decisions, we each weigh up principles and certain values. It's unlikely that we can recreate that in AI.

Myth Debunked: Ethics cannot be taught
Ethical understanding, reasoning or decision-making is not something that is predetermined. This is influenced by culture, values and personal experiences. Whenever someone is confronted with a difficult decision, it opens up an opportunity to develop empathy and understanding, which in turn informs their ethical reasoning. Several decisions have an ethical dimension and recognising such components would yield in better reasoning skills and decision-making through practice and observation.
Perspective. A subtle and unnecessary distinction?

This isn’t a recession – it’s a ‘war-cession,’ top strategist says. Here’s why it’s different
The global economy is likely entering a “war-cession,” according to veteran investment strategist David Roche, and markets are underestimating its duration.
It comes as markets attempt to navigate a flurry of concurrent economic hurdles, including Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, soaring inflation, rising interest rates and supply disruption from China’s efforts to contain a Covid-19 outbreak.
Speaking to CNBC’s “Squawk Box Europe” on Friday, Roche, president of Independent Strategy, suggested that evidence of atrocities committed against civilians in Ukraine by Russian forces will prevent any possibility of a swift peace negotiation with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
As such, the West’s only option is to seek regime change in Russia, he said, given that Putin cannot be seen domestically to withdraw from Ukraine without a “victory.”
“He is not going to trade withdrawal for any ratcheting down of sanctions, so the sanctions stay in place and I think the implications for Europe are that you will see recession, because the sanctions will actually increase and move towards a total energy blockade,” Roche said.
