🇪🇺 Policy Thoughts in the EU AI Act Implementation 🇪🇺
There is a lot to like in the first draft of the EU GPAI Code of Practice, especially as regards transparency requirements. The Systemic Risks part, on the other hand, is concerning for both smaller developers and for external stakeholders.
I wrote more on this topic ahead of the next draft. TLDR: more attention to immediate large-scale risks and to collaborative solutions supported by evidence can help everyone - as long as developers disclose sufficient information about their design choices and deployment contexts.
👷🏽♀️📚🔨 Announcing the Foundation Model Development Cheatsheet!
My first 🤗Post🤗 ever to announce the release of a fantastic collaborative resource to support model developers across the full development stack: The FM Development Cheatsheet available here: https://fmcheatsheet.org/
The cheatsheet is a growing database of the many crucial resources coming from open research and development efforts to support the responsible development of models. This new resource highlights essential yet often underutilized tools in order to make it as easy as possible for developers to adopt best practices, covering among other aspects: 🧑🏼🤝🧑🏼 data selection, curation, and governance; 📖 accurate and limitations-aware documentation; ⚡ energy efficiency throughout the training phase; 📊 thorough capability assessments and risk evaluations; 🌏 environmentally and socially conscious deployment strategies.
We strongly encourage developers working on creating and improving models to make full use of the tools listed here, and to help keep the resource up to date by adding the resources that you yourself have developed or found useful in your own practice 🤗
