AI for inclusive and resilient agri-food systems: Potential ways forward

The OECD has outlined potential applications of AI in agriculture, examining how the technology could improve food security, supply chain resilience, and sustainability across agri-food systems while also identifying key implementation challenges.

Why this matters: Large-scale AI deployment in agriculture typically involves extensive data collection from farmers, land, and supply chains, raising questions about who controls that data and whether smallholder farmers retain meaningful agency over their own agricultural information.

FTC Gives Final Approval to Order Against Illuminate Settling Allegations It Failed to Secure Students’ Personal Data

The FTC has finalized a settlement with Illuminate Education over a data breach that exposed millions of students' personal information. The order mandates a formal security program, restrictions on how much student data the company may collect and retain, and deletion of data deemed unnecessary.

Why this matters: Students have little say in whether their schools share their data with third-party vendors, making robust regulatory enforcement a primary safeguard. The order's data minimization and deletion requirements acknowledge that limiting collection in the first place reduces exposure when security measures inevitably fall short.

AI Governance Expectations on the Rise for Insurers Amid New Regulatory Activity

Regulatory pressure around AI governance in the insurance sector is intensifying, with new activity signaling that insurers face growing expectations to demonstrate responsible AI use, according to analysis from law firm Hinshaw & Culbertson.

Why this matters: Insurance AI systems routinely process sensitive health, financial, and behavioral data to make consequential decisions about coverage and risk — meaning stronger governance frameworks could offer individuals meaningful protections against opaque, automated determinations affecting their lives.

I asked AI for help with DIY. It told me to build a subfloor on rotting stumps, but also taught me valuable lessons | Myke Bartlett

Nothing does more for your ego than realising you can make a better decision than a bot with all of human knowledge at its digital fingertips I am not, by nature, an early adopter. There comes a point in our lives where change becomes more irritating than exciting and, I suspect, I reached it sooner than most. But when a workplace recently tasked me with exploring practical applications for AI, I spotted an opportunity to cast off my luddite inclinations. It turned out AI was very good at mimicking most of the things I could already do. Irrespective of quality, it could churn out articles, re…

The Italian Supervisory Authority fined a company 120 000 EUR for tracking five employees who drove company cars

Italy's data protection authority fined Pioneer Hi-Bred Italia Sementi s.r.l. €120,000 for unlawfully tracking five employees via GPS systems in company vehicles, finding violations of GDPR principles on lawful processing, transparency, and data subject information obligations.

Why this matters: The case underscores how workplace surveillance can quietly erode employee privacy; workers often have limited visibility into how their movements are monitored, and this ruling reinforces that employer convenience does not override individuals' rights to transparency and lawful data collection.
