This is interesting, not primarily because of what it says but because of who signed—and who didn’t.
For my first post, I’m sharing a letter @NVIDIA signed on why open models matter.
AI will transform every industry, power every company, and be built by every country.
Open models strengthen safety and cybersecurity, accelerate innovation and diffusion, and enable sovereignty.
The world needs both frontier closed models and frontier open models.

Avoid @UPS_CH like the plague. They were supposed to deliver a package a week ago and sent an email that the address was wrong. Every day since then I have told them via email and on the phone that it’s correct—only to get an email the next day stating that the address is wrong.

Me:
I try to look at data and trends rather than headlines, because headlines can give you a misleading picture of the state of the world. Something goes wrong every day — that’s guaranteed — and if you just look at something goes wrong and say, oh, things are getting worse, you might be forgetting all the things that went wrong in the past.
Andrew Marr:
And what we call the news is a long litany of all the things that are getting worse or going wrong.
Me:
Well, yes, it’s much easier for something bad to happen suddenly than for something good to happen. Good things either creep up on you a few percentage points a year, and sometimes can compound.
So the fact that, for example, extreme poverty in the world has been declining and a billion people have escaped extreme poverty over the last 30 years — but not on Thursday — so it was never an event from the news. One of the biggest events in human history is something that most people have never even heard of.

“Global digital collaboration can’t be owned. It must be co-created.”
Daniel Goldscheider @goldscheider (OpenWallet Foundation) shared how the UN-backed Global Digital Compact aims to unite governments, industries, and communities—not to dictate standards, but to let diverse voices shape them.
“It’s not one leads, others follow. It’s everyone at the same table.”

Great line up thanks Daniel et al @OpenWalletFdn
Thank you Doreen @ITUSecGen and Federal Councillor Beat Jans for opening the OpenWallet High Level Panel Meeting today. It was a packed event with 20 speakers and a full House (of Switzerland)
The people set to benefit the most from digital wallets and credentials are those with the least tech experience.
That’s why digital wallets and credentials must be globally interoperable, secure, trustworthy and inclusive for everyone.

You shouldn't "identify" with your beliefs. When you do that, challenges to your beliefs are wrongfully viewed as personal attacks. All beliefs should be held tentatively, and always open to revision.
It’s great to see the PM of a country with over 1.4bn people caring about global standards.
