Wrapping up the day with Dr. Anuradha Welivita🌍
Her talk on Culturally Sensitive Empathetic Conversational Agents highlighted a big challenge, AI empathy doesn’t always translate across cultures
That’s why ensuring FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) data is so important

Prof. Martin Jaggi (@mjaggi.bsky.social ) talked about the Apertus LLM. Apertus is the first major LLM to be compliant with EU AI act 🇪🇺💻
What distinguishes Apertus from others:
- uses public data
- respects AI opt outs
- avoids memorization
- removes PII
- filters toxic and harmful data
