Governing The Future · Fadi Farra · Mar 07, 2026
Smart power reframes influence: states and non‑state actors now marry coercion and attraction into a legitimacy‑based strategic model, using diplomacy, development and digital technologies — especially AI — to shape global economic and political orders. This shifts economic levers (trade, investment, standards, industrial policy) and raises coordination, market-structure and distributional risks for global AI ecosystems.

Smart Power and the Transformation of Contemporary International Relations: Connecting Coercion and Persuasion in Global Politics · Johnson Kayode Ayeni, Agaba Halidu · Mar 07, 2026
Federated advertising architectures can preserve much of targeted personalization while cutting centralized data custody risks, but doing so requires cryptographic aggregation, calibrated differential privacy, algorithmic fixes for non‑IID and delayed feedback, and explicit cross‑party governance; without these measures, performance, fairness and security trade‑offs remain substantial.

Privacy-Aware AI Advertising Systems: A Federated Learning Framework for Cross-Platform Personalization · Ethan Caldwell, Sofia Bennett · Mar 07, 2026
Treating privacy as a commodity produces distinctive harms that prices can’t fix: markets for personal data enable exploitation, erode autonomy and concentrate platform power, so policymakers should restrict or redesign data markets rather than simply 'fill' a missing market.

Data and privacy: Putting markets in (their) place · Reetika Khera · Mar 07, 2026
A traceable, compliance-ready curriculum framework promises better alignment between qualifications and labor-market needs and richer datasets for measurement and AI tooling; its benefits, however, come with high upfront costs, continuous audit burdens, and risks of concentrating advantages among well-resourced providers.

Curriculum engineering: organisation, orientation, and management volume 8 · tshingombe tshitadi, tshingombe tshitadi · Mar 07, 2026
Fragmented vocational certification and administrative backlogs in South Africa are obstructing artisans’ career progression to engineering roles; migrating records to cloud repositories and adding automated compliance checks could restore credential continuity and unlock data for AI-driven matching and upskilling—but rural infrastructure gaps and governance risks could limit benefits.

THETA: A Textual Hybrid Embedding-based Topic Analysis Framework and AI Scientist Agent for Scalable Computational Social Science · Zhenke Duan, Xin Li · Mar 06, 2026
Introducing AI into design workflows is not just a productivity upgrade but a reconfiguration of responsibility and power: UX designers weigh efficiency against skill, autonomy and trust, and outcomes hinge on team norms and organizational governance. Adoption therefore redistributes who benefits and who bears accountability, with implications for incentives, human capital and firm policy.

The Values of Value in AI Adoption: Rethinking Efficiency in UX Designers' Workplaces · Inha Cha, Catherine Wieczorek, Richmond Y. Wong · Mar 06, 2026
A lightweight 'FutureBoosting' pipeline that uses a frozen time‑series foundation model to generate forecasted features and feeds them into an interpretable regressor cuts electricity price forecasting MAE by more than 30% across multiple markets. The approach is plug‑and‑play, computationally modest, and retains model interpretability, making it attractive for market participants seeking better bids and risk management.

Regression Models Meet Foundation Models: A Hybrid-AI Approach to Practical Electricity Price Forecasting · Yunzhong Qiu, Binzhu Li, Hao Wei, Shenglin Weng, Chen Wang, Zhongyi Pei, Mingshe... · Mar 06, 2026
Task-level approaches reveal that low-skilled tasks face the largest displacement risk while high-skilled work is more likely to be augmented, but much of the literature rests on static, pre-2020 mappings and limited causal evidence that rapid LLM advances have already outpaced.

Recent Methodologies on AI and Labour - a Desk Review · Elena Papagiannaki, Joana Geisler · Mar 06, 2026
AI tools speed routine coding and prototyping at Netlight but create errors, context gaps and integration costs that increase the value of human supervision and orchestration. Firms that build effective orchestration and tooling layers — and hire for system-design and coordination skills — are likely to capture disproportionate productivity gains.

Rethinking How IT Professionals Build IT Products with Artificial Intelligence · Florian J. Meier, Florian Gatzlaff, Sven Laumer · Mar 06, 2026
Data‑driven HRM strengthens workforce resilience and operational performance by improving talent matching, forecasting turnover, and enabling real‑time monitoring; however, privacy, algorithmic bias and capability gaps limit adoption and leave causal long‑term impacts on employment and wages unresolved.

Data-Driven Strategies in Human Resource Management: The Role of Information Science in Workforce Resilience – A Systematic Review · Stephen Taduvana, Thubelihle Moyo, Rhinos Kombedzai · Mar 06, 2026
Children bear outsized risks from antimicrobial resistance, climate change and emerging zoonoses because immaturity, behaviour and ecosystem dependence concentrate exposure; yet One Health surveillance and policy remain fragmented and adult‑centric. Building integrated, child‑labelled datasets and equity‑aware AI/economic models—with targeted governance reforms—will improve forecasting and resource allocation, particularly in low‑ and middle‑income countries.

Safeguarding future generations: a One Health perspective on children, climate change, and infectious threats · Marco Masetti, Francesca Lato, Martina Menoni, Susanna Esposito · Mar 06, 2026
China pursues centralized, state‑led data governance to mobilize large, sovereign data projects; the United States relies on decentralized, rights‑based institutions emphasizing transparency and accountability. Rather than strict opposites, openness and security are treated as layered, adaptable governance processes with distinct implications for data access, innovation and competition.

Artificial intelligence, greening of occupational structure and total factor energy efficiency · Tianren Li, Yao Hu, Jiachao Peng, Fushun Zhang · Mar 06, 2026
AI has transformed ad personalization from a prediction problem into platform infrastructure: who controls data, identity, and governance—not just model accuracy—now determines rents, welfare impacts and market structure. Durable, welfare-aligned personalization will require interpretable models, privacy-by-design, causal impact measurement and new audit/regulatory regimes.
