My @copim colleague @simonxix has a new contribution in the LSE Impact blog, and raises some excellent points: "Our knowledge sector is built on a foundation of software that is unreliable, not liked by users or staff, bloated with untested “AI” features, and which fails to protect us from increasing numbers of cyberattacks." https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/impactofsocialsciences/2025/12/02/dont-rely-on-government-to-save-the-british-library/

  • @copim @simonxix Simon's conclusion is on point - imagine the possibilities: "Using the same principles [as those guiding our work in the Copim community] of community ownership and investment in people rather than commercial providers, the UK knowledge sector could collaborate on community-owned open source technical infrastructures." ❤️ #openinfrastructures
