The traditional approach to statistical disclosure control (SDC) for privacy protection is utility-first. Since the 1970s, national statistical institutes have been using anonymization methods with heuristic parameter choice and suitable utility preservation properties to protect data before release. Their goal is to publish analytically useful data that cannot be linked to specific respondents or leak confidential information on them.
In the late 1990s, the computer science community took another angle and proposed privacy-first data protection. In this approach a privacy model specifying an ex ante privacy condition is enforced using one or several SDC methods, such as noise addition, generalization, or microaggregation. The parameters of the SDC methods depend on the privacy model parameters, and too strict a choice of the latter may result in poor utility. The first widely accepted privacy model was k-anonymity, whereas differential privacy (DP) is the model that currently attracts the most attention.

Do you drink coffee? Ask your gut

One particular gut microbe is quite the coffee fiend. Lawsonibacter asaccharolyticus was up to eight times more abundant in coffee drinkers than in non-drinkers. In a culture dish, the bacteria grew faster when fed coffee of any kind — brewed or instant, caffeinated or decaffeinated — than when fed no coffee.

September 10, 2023Thoughts on Google and chatGPT
August 20, 2023Google’s current search presentation might seem to be very high-tech and current and not something that is going to become obsolete. Still, I would argue that it is going to change soon, particularly in the way it monetizes search through sponsored advertising.
For the past two decades, Google has dominated the online search industry and has figured out how to make a lot of money by connecting this with online advertising. Its presentation is basically a list of items, sometimes with interspersed ads in relation to a search query.
ChatGPT has the great potential to change this overall look because it directly provides an answer in the framework of a prose conversation without the possibility of a list or having sponsored results interspersed. The sponsored results are one of the main ways that Google gets revenue, so this is potentially worrisome to the company. It’s hard to see how Google could get sponsored revenue by directly interspersing sponsored comments into a ChatGPT type of dialogue without significantly distorting the results. ChatGPT also greatly disrupts the legions of people who have carefully set up their websites to optimize search engine performance.
Moreover, increasingly, even within Google search results, one doesn’t see a list presented but rather an immediate answer. For instance, if you pose a direct question or an arithmetic problem to Google, you get the answer and are not led to look down a list of search results. People are going to want this to avoid wasting time or having to look any farther on the page than necessary. In this sense, ChatGPT is the extreme scenario when you are given the direct answer in the form of dialogue.
Google is acutely aware of the possible disruption of ChatGPT to its revenue model. This can be seen in numerous news stories about its current panic, including issuing a company-wide “code red” and orienting the organization around generative AI.
