π§ Conversation at Childhood
The World Childhood Foundation has been working against the sexual exploitation of children for 25 years. In the Stella Polaris project, they drive AI-related initiatives that can support the fight against sexual abuse of children.
Recently, they held a summit in Stockholm to showcase their achievements. Among other things, an AI tool from Paliscope was presented that helps the police map what is said on forums. Otherwise, they try to keep track of this overwhelming amount of information in Excel documents... yikes!
It's nauseating to see examples of what people write. The kind of stuff that stays with you for a long time.
So, I was glad to contribute (YouTube link, the conversation is in English) with an optimistic perspective in the panel discussion I had with representatives from Handelsbanken, ABB, and Telia.
π Summer schedule
During July, things will slow down a bit. No Premium Supporter articles will be published. News will be published every other day and the summary will come every other week.
Have a nice summer!

π The Angry Optimist's summer reading tips
It was a product that was supposed to transform cities as much as the car did, praised by Steve Jobs, and fought over by investors eager to invest, created by a technical genius. A product so revolutionary that it only appears once per generation. That and other book tips for lazy summer days.

NASA's new space telescope will search for habitable exoplanets. The telescope will be able to detect both biological and technological signs of life. It may also potentially search for city lights on the night side of habitable exoplanets.
π³οΈ Human rights have improved in all world regions over the past hundred years
Human rights have improved in all regions over the past hundred years. Europe and Oceania have the highest levels of human rights protection. Africa and Asia have lower levels but have made significant progress.
π Elonroad delivers electric switches to the energy society
The key to a low and fixed price for green electricity is the sharing of energy. This requires batteries and other energy storage solutions - and an electric switch. Elonroad will become the supplier for such a switch. Another piece is added to the energy society.
