    Understanding the behavior of users online is important for researchers, policymakers, and private companies alike. But observing online behavior and conducting experiments is difficult without direct access to the user base and software of technology companies. We introduce Webmunk, an open-source tool designed to make conducting online studies much easier. The user-facing side of Webmunk is a browser extension that can track consumer browsing behavior and experimentally modify consumers experiences as they browse the Internet. It can be installed just like any other browser extension, such as ad blockers. Through this extension, researchers can collect a host of consumer data, from URLs to web page HTML elements, clicks, and scroll positions. The extension can also modify information and change the look of a web page, allowing for researchers to implement interventions that vary across study participants. A key advantage of this approach is that interventions occur while participants are engaging in real world activities such as shopping, browsing the news, using social media, or searching for information. We demonstrate the power of Webmunk by discussing two studies in progress

    Drawing insights from the field of innovation economics, we discuss the likely competitive environment shaping generative AI advances. Central to our analysis are the concepts of appropriability--whether firms in the industry are able to control the knowledge generated by their innovations--and complementary assets--whether effective entry requires access to specialized infrastructure and capabilities to which incumbent firms can ration access. While the rapid improvements in AI foundation models promise transformative impacts across broad sectors of the economy, we argue that tight control over complementary assets will likely result in a concentrated market structure, as in past episodes of technological upheaval. We suggest the likely paths through which incumbent firms may restrict entry, confining newcomers to subordinate roles and stifling broad sectoral innovation. We conclude with speculations regarding how this oligopolistic future might be averted. Policy interventions aimed at fractionalizing or facilitating shared access to complementary assets might help preserve competition and incentives for extending the generative AI frontier. Ironically, the best hopes for a vibrant open source AI ecosystem might rest on the presence of a "rogue" technology giant, who might choose openness and engagement with smaller firms as a strategic weapon wielded against other incumbents

    Die zunehmenden geopolitischen Spannungen, vor allem durch den Konflikt zwischen Russland und der Ukraine, stellen Deutschland und seine Unternehmen vor eine komplexe Bedrohungslage, die mit erhöhten Risiken aufgrund von Sabotageaktivitäten und Wirtschaftsspionage einhergeht. Vor diesem Hintergrund stehen deutsche Unternehmen vor erheblichen Herausforderungen, die eine proaktive und wachsame Herangehensweise erfordern, um die damit verbundenen Risiken zu mindern. Trotz der vielfältigen Herausforderungen bietet die heutige vernetzte digitale Landschaft Unternehmen auch technologische Möglichkeiten, ihre Abwehrmechanismen zu stärken und sich proaktiv vor potenziellen Bedrohungen zu schützen. Durch die Nutzung von Methoden und Technologien zur Datenerfassung aus mobilen Anwendungen (ADINT) können Unternehmen effektive Maßnahmen ergreifen, um ihre Sicherheit zu verbessern und sensible Daten zu schützen. Increasing geopolitical tensions, particularly due to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, present Germany and its companies with a complex threat situation that is accompanied by increased risks from sabotage activities and industrial espionage. Against this backdrop, German companies face significant challenges requiring a proactive and vigilant approach to minimize the associated risks. Despite the many challenges, today's interconnected digital landscape also offers companies technological opportunities to strengthen their defenses and proactively protect themselves from potential threats. By utilizing methods and technologies to collect data from mobile applications (ADINT), companies can take effective measures to improve their security and protect sensitive data.
