SUMMARY:Training course - Spatial models in marine science using INLA and inlabru
DESCRIPTION:In this course\, we aim to teach ecologists and stock assessors how to analyse spatial data. Attendees will gain an understanding of the relevant statistical concepts/methods and how to implement them using the INLA/inlabru software. Examples will be based on fitting models to observations to investigate spatial and temporal correlations and possible associations with abiotic factors using real data\, e.g. as extracted from the DATRAS data base. \nICES HQ\, Copenhagen\, Denmark

SUMMARY:Surfacing and Mitigating the “Hidden Risks” of AI Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Summary: Learn more about the novel framework to anticipate and mitigate AI risks arising from human-AI interaction developed by the Cabinet Office Behavioural Science Team. Listen to an overview of the BR-UK AI Resources Repository and learn about the progress developing a Statement on AI by BR-UK. \nCLICK HERE TO REGISTER \n  \nAbstract: Current AI safety discourse disproportionately centres on highly salient technical risks such as algorithm bias and hallucinations. While these concerns merit attention\, they overlook a fundamental truth we’ve learned from other safety-critical fields like aviation and healthcare: catastrophic risks often arise from the way humans interact with technology\, rather than from the technology itself. \nThe Cabinet Office Behavioural Science Team has developed a novel framework to anticipate and mitigate AI risks arising from human-AI interaction. Rather than relying exclusively on technical safeguards and disclaimers\, this methodology expands risk mitigation beyond inherent LLM limitations (e.g.\, bias\, susceptibility to jailbreaking) to mitigate those risks that emerge from well-intentioned AI use. The framework also shows how seemingly innocuous micro-level decisions accumulate to generate systemic macro risks (e.g. labour market discrimination) that would remain invisible through conventional risk assessment lenses until harms had already occurred. \nThe framework has informed the risk-managed deployment of an internal Cabinet Office AI system and carries implications for how AI risk is managed globally. The work demonstrates that effective AI governance requires expertise beyond machine learning specialists. The contemporary AI implementation landscape\, however\, continues to frame challenges predominantly through technological and economic paradigms rather than socio-technical ones. While major AI organisations employ ethicists to “align” AI with human values\, philosophical frameworks alone will be insufficient for identifying and mitigating latent behavioural risks. This oversight risks undermining the very efficiency and impact that AI promises to deliver. \nSpeakers: Holly Marquez\, Senior Behavioural Scientist\, Cabinet Office\, Dr Moira Nicolson\, Behavioural Scientist\, Cabinet Office\, Dr Amy Rodger\, BR-UK Research Fellow\, University of Edinburgh and Dr Maggie Guanyu Yang\, BR-UK Research Fellow\, UCL. \nChair:  Professor Susan Michie\, BR-UK Co-Director

SUMMARY:Doppler Dynamics- Applied ADCP & DVL Training
DESCRIPTION:Nortek is hosting a free to attend event next month in Aberdeen. The event is called Doppler Dynamics- Applied ADCP & DVL Training it will take place on November the 25th  \nWhere– Village Hotel\, Kingswells\, Aberdeen \nTime– 8:30-5pm  \nHow– Sign up here \nThe event will be split into two halves\, with the morning session focused on DVLs and subsea navigation\, and the afternoon session looking at ADCPs and how we measure currents and waves. Both sessions will be supported by external user case stories as they apply our doppler technology to support their operations\, observations and research. \nOur objective for the day is to share the latest technological developments\, how to extract the most from Accoustic doppler sensors (ADCP and DVL) and apply best practices to their operation. We will look at instrument setup\, data processing and new features. Whether you are a new user or doppler expert we are confident you will leave with an increased level of knowledge.  \nAs always at our events there will be plenty of opportunities to network with industry peers and a lunch is provided.
