A friend of mine wrote this important peace spelling out for the slow why algorithmic fairness and existing biases an extremely underappreciated risk, due to the horrendous effects it can have on societies ability to coordinate and solve global crises. @timnitGebru and other have been trying to push awareness for AI fairness and similar issues for years, but since you can't use it as an excuse to do more frontier models and targets existing inequalities, I guess it's less interesting to EAs and funders than the AI snakeoil OpenAI,MIRI and others keep pushing. Maybe reframing it #aifairness as #xrisk they can finally also get a few millions in funding

Very interesting to hear different voices in tech that are not only US/West Europe centric!

I hope Karya's team keep the balance as they grow in the business world!

I have the feeling that after decades, we'll see some people renouncing exploitation/harm that happened in the name of "AI" after years of benefiting from it.

We'll see reflections like what we see now in museums about slavery, colonization, stolen art, etc. But it will be too late!

So the companies' arguments about exploiting annotators might be the law wages in the country of annotators.

Anyone heard about any for-profit orgs that have a fair way for compensating annotators?

Any suggestions for a good AI ethics/fairness summer (or fall) school in Europe? or similar events that are not hijacked by the "AI Safety" crowd?

#aiethics #aifairness

I'd like to move to research after years in the industry. I've done a bit of research during my master studies years ago, but it seems to me that a PhD is usually a prerequisite.

Any suggestions for job opportunities or fellowships?

Areas of interest: ML system design and evaluation, Algorithmic Fairness, and other.

My boss is a cis male medical doctor. We are doing some #fairness related #datascience #machinelearning that has to do with #gender and #healthcare, and we have very different views on, for example, patient exclusion criteria. As a #trans person I find this both amusing and frustrating.
