On May 30, 2013, the French Data Protection Authority (“CNIL”) launched a public consultation on the digital “right to be forgotten.”. The CNIL recalled that the principle of a digital “right to be forgotten” is established in the Proposed EU Data Protection Regulation and that this new right will have to be exercised in accordance with freedom of expression, freedom of the press and the duty of remembrance.

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.

There is a lot of debate about using storage and cloud storage in particular to archive digital information. I believe a better question is: Are you an IT archive or a business archive? A really good way to answer this question is to ask yourself are you preserving bits or are you preserving business information. If you are doing the former then you are likely to be an IT centric archive - you are looking after files but care little about their contents or usage.

'The post Yahoo! And Tumblr: It’s About Display, Streams & Native at Scale appeared first on John Battelle's Search Blog. The world is atwitter about Tumblr’s big exit to Yahoo!, and from what I can tell it seems this one is going to really happen (ATD is covering it well). There are plenty of smart and appropriate takes on why this move makes sense (see GigaOm ) but I think a lot of it boils down to the trends driving Yahoo’s massive display business.

'Interesting series of posts from Jane McConnell about the perspective of HR on the digital workplace (aka intranets, enterprise social software, etc). The first two posts (with another to come) ask: Is HR the missing player we are waiting for in the digital workplace? Why is HR late for social collaboration? Firstly, despite the low representation in Jane''s survey data I think the findings are reasonably representative of the HR view-point: HR says the Digital Workplace''s primary purpose is t

Geopolitical risk is now at the top of the agenda for CEOs. But tracking it can be difficult. The world is more interconnected than ever, whether in terms of economics and supply chains or technology and communication. Geopolitically, however, it is becoming increasingly fragmented – threatening the operations, financial well-being, and security of globally connected companies.

I've been working with DB2 for z/OS for about 25 years. During most of that time, I've been actively engaged in performance tuning work -- specifically, performance tuning as it pertains to the CPU and elapsed time associated with application access to data in DB2-managed databases. I've learned that the best results, in terms of efficiency and throughput gains, are achieved via a two-pronged approach that I conceptualize as a rising tide and home runs.

The first step in a successful Customer Experience endeavor (or for that matter, any business proposition) is to find out what’s wrong. If you can’t identify it, you can’t fix it! 💡 That’s where the Voice of the Customer (VoC) comes in. Today, far too many brands do VoC simply because that’s what they think they’re supposed to do; that’s what all their competitors do.
