Wikidata:WikiProject Linked Data for Production/Practical Wikidata for Librarians - Wikidata
Practical Wikidata for Librarians arose from a group of librarians and archivists at the Blacklight-LD working meeting at Stanford in September 2019 (notes available). The goal of the group is to gather together, organize, and expand resources for librarians interested in editing Wikidata, and to provide a space to develop shared data models and best practices. The hope is that sharing these resources will prevent duplicative work at different institutions, and provide stepping stones for librarians interested in working with Wikidata but seeking some direction on where to get started.

Climate Action Schools - Take Action Global
Climate Action Schools - Take Action Global
Imagine a world in which young people across seven continents connect virtually and solve one of the world’s most pressing challenges: Climate Change. The Climate Action Schools Program is a paid, year-long project allowing schools, districts, and networks with students ages 5-18 to collaborate at local and global levels on environmental topics. Over the course of the project, classrooms explore the causes and effects of climate change, develop solutions, and take action as a school community.

How to hide PHP Warnings and Notices in WordPress – Ari Stathopoulos
How to hide PHP Warnings and Notices in WordPress – Ari Stathopoulos
From time to time a user comes to me and says “I see some PHP notices and warnings on my page”. Most of the time these are nothing to worry about (though the plugin/theme developer should know about these so that they may fix them in a future release). PHP warnings and notices are nothing to worry about on a production site most of the time. Some of these can even be generated because the developer has to keep compatibility with older versions of WordPress as well as older PHP versions.

This white paper presents the case of using openly licensed photographs for AI facial recognition training datasets. The analysis is part of AI_Commons, our activity that explores how AI training datasets, and works included in those datasets, can be better governed and shared as a commons. The case creates an opportunity to ask fundamental questions about the challenges that open licensing faces today, related to privacy, exploitation of the commons at massive scales of use, or dealing with unexpected and unintended uses of works that are openly licensed. While events that form this case go back almost a decade, these issues are still relevant . The lessons that we can draw from this case are applicable today, and can help to govern AI training datasets, and other elements of the AI technological stack. The case also creates an opportunity to review open licensing frameworks and to make them future-proof.

A Proposal for a Shared Medical School Curricular Ecosystem - PubMed
A Proposal for a Shared Medical School Curricular Ecosystem - PubMed
New digital platforms are transforming learning in higher education and providing high-quality education content at little or no cost. Educators can now reach large, even global audiences. Yet, many medical schools continue to develop and maintain custom but duplicative curricular content despite having limited faculty and financial resources. In addition, medical students are faced with a multitude of potentially unaligned curricula driven by the school, national licensing exams, and the students' own perceived clinical training needs. The authors propose the creation of a common curricular component ecosystem that is developed around consensus-built foundational learning objectives aligned with core competencies that must be acquired by all students graduating medical school. Identifying and developing common curricula with standardized learning outcomes ideally should involve leading medical education, accreditation, and certification bodies in the United States. Curriculum component standards will be necessary to enable curriculum development, sharing, and adoption at scale. A shared medical curriculum ecosystem would free up faculty time to develop high-value teaching activities at individual medical schools. Students would benefit from a consistent education experience that better aligns with national licensure exams. A shared, core curriculum system could begin to bend the cost curve for medical education in the United States and scale internationally to help address the increasing global shortage of health care workers.

Copyright, selfie monkeys, the hand of God - Deep Dive: AI
What are the copyright implications for AI? Can artwork created by a machine register for copyright? These are some of the questions we answer in this episode of Deep Dive: AI, an Open Source Initiative that explores how Artificial Intelligence impacts the world around us. Here to help us unravel the complexities of today’s topic is Pamela Chestek, an Open Source lawyer, Chair of the OSI License Committee, and OSI Board member. n today’s conversation, we learn the basics of copyright law and delve into its complexities regarding open source material. We also talk about the line between human and machine creations, whether machine learning software can be registered for copyright, how companies monetize Open Source software, the concern of copyright infringement for machine learning datasets, and why understanding copyright is essential for businesses. We also learn about some amazing AI technology that is causing a stir in the design world and hear some real-world examples of copyright law in the technology space.

Steps to Success when building a Community of Practice
Steps to Success when building a Community of Practice
This post outlines different types of work that needs to take place when planning, sustaining, and developing a Community of Practice. It is informed by work that WAO have carried out with Participate around the Keep Badges Weird community over the last 10 months. The stages outlined below taken from an evolution of the work around a maturity model for online, networked communities and systems convening for breaking boundaries. We found that a space flight metaphor resonated more deeply than the previous one we were using, and so we have continued with as our work has developed.

Eighteen pitfalls to beware of in AI journalism
Eighteen pitfalls to beware of in AI journalism
Reporting about AI is hard. Companies hype their products and most journalists aren’t sufficiently familiar with the technology. When news articles uncritically repeat PR statements, overuse images of robots, attribute agency to AI tools, or downplay their limitations, they mislead and misinform readers about the potential and limitations of AI.  We noticed that many articles tend to mislead in similar ways, so we analyzed over 50 articles about AI from major publications, from which we compiled 18 recurring pitfalls. We hope that being familiar with these will help you detect hype whenever you see it. We also hope this compilation of pitfalls will help journalists avoid them.

If you've been itching to try OpenAI's image synthesis tool but have been stymied by the lack of an invitation, now's your chance. Today, OpenAI announced that it removed the waitlist for its DALL-E AI image generator service. That means anyone can sign up and use it. Images generated with DALL-E are owned by OpenAI, but the company grants users exclusive rights to "reproduce and display" their generations as long as they comply with the content policy. Content violations will revoke your right to legally use generated images.

Contributor Covenant: A Code of Conduct for Open Source and Other Digital Commons Communities
Contributor Covenant: A Code of Conduct for Open Source and Other Digital Commons Communities
Participating in open source is often a highly collaborative experience. We’re encouraged to create in public view, and we’re incentivized to welcome contributions of all kinds from people around the world. This makes the practice of open source as much social as it is technical. Some open source projects attract enough contributors that a community forms. A healthy open source community centers the shared values and norms of its members. While not all of these values are exactly the same from community to community, there is a set of core values and norms that are essential in a just and equitable software commons. Contributor Covenant is a code of conduct that you can adapt to express both these fundamental shared values, and the special norms and values that distinguish your own community. Adopting Contributor Covenant helps makes your community’s values explicit, and signals your commitment to creating a welcoming and safe environment for everyone.
