Is Colorado ready?
ANALYSIS: As AI Meets Privacy, States’ Answers Raise Questions
While artificial intelligence may stir debates about the future, it’s already a part of many attorneys’ current practice. And in 2023, companies doing business in four states—California, Virginia, Colorado, and Connecticut—will need to comply with consumer privacy laws governing AI-powered data processing. The regulatory answers proposed by these states on how to leverage AI in compliance with privacy laws are already spurring questions that will likely linger long after the laws take effect.
… The following graphic compares AI-related requirements from the GDPR and California’s, Virginia’s, Colorado’s, and Connecticut’s privacy laws.
To the extent that the hackers are state sponsored, has Australia just started a cyber war? Or are all but ‘criminals’ off limits?

Australia to 'stand up and punch back' against cyber crims
Australia's government has declared the nation is planning to go on the offensive against international cyber crooks following recent high-profile attacks on local health insurer Medibank and telco Optus.
The aggressive posture was expressed in the announcement of a "Joint standing operation" that will see the Australian Federal Police and the Australian Signals Directorate (Australia's GCHQ/NSA analog) run a team with a mission "to investigate, target and disrupt cyber-criminal syndicates with a priority on ransomware threat groups."
Minister for Home Affairs and Cyber Security Clare O'Neil said the operation will "scour the world, hunt down the criminal syndicates and gangs who are targeting Australia in cyber-attacks, and disrupt their efforts."
Not a ‘Terminator,’ just an annoying insect.

Microdrones: the AI assassins set to become weapons of mass destruction
Drones are in the news again, but not as we have come to know them. Last month Britain announced it was sending 850 Black Hornet “microdrones” to Kyiv for use in close-quarters combat.
The idea was (before the spectacular Russian collapse in recent weeks) that they would lend Ukrainian troops a crucial edge in the vicious urban fighting that was expected as they sought to liberate their towns and cities.
These machines are a far cry from the large unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) associated with the war on terror, the ubiquitous Predator and Reaper drones that delivered death from the upper skies with almost god-like insouciance.
Black Hornets are actually more like a child’s toy. Measuring just over six inches and weighing a little less than a plum, they will literally peer round corners and sneak through windows.
… At £10,000 a pop, but bound to get cheaper, it offers what soldiers since before Thermopylae have craved: situational awareness and the ability to “see over the hill” – without having to send some poor blighter to the top of it.
Ethics in the pre-Machine Learning world. (No doubt used to train the ML)
