"Why not shift the perspective to another future—a period of resilient small tech using minimum viable configurations, powered by renewable energy, which does not require theft, exploitation and monopoly regimes over digital means of production? This would mean untraining our selves from an idea of the future dominated by some kind of digital-oligarch pyramid scheme, run on the
labour of hidden microworkers, in which causal effect is replaced by rigged correlations" text by Hito Steyerl:

"As any survivor of human trafficking will tell you, #privacy is safety. They cannot be separated when you are being hunted by the predator you’ve escaped. At odds with this is the fundamental ethos of the tech giants: collect as much #data as possible, manipulate it, trade it, and find a way to profit from it."

For people who might want to find this illuminating thread. Thank you.

It's pretty grim.

@atomicpoet

Every day they just move that bar lower.
Young adults and older children at risk of suicide are very vulnerable.

Previous studies have shown that as soon as they find out they're talking to an AI most people (reasonably) drop out.

As a friend observed, after reading this NYT article,

"If we are dead-set on creating systems that feel or act as if they are sentient, then we should probably actually treat them as if they were, just to be safe. Or else we should not be trying to emulate sentient-seeming behavior."

@dompates No, it's not a moot point, it's the whole point. The web is a valuable tool for learning and making it impossible to find good information would suck.

Clearly you don't remember the pre-google days of searching. Like that but everything seems relevant and plausible.

I think your implied Web of paywalled only content sounds pretty sucky to be honest.

Economies of Virtue: The Circulation of ‘Ethics’ in #AI

Edited by Thao Phan, Jake Goldenfein, Declan Kuch, and Monique Mann

Theory on Demand #46

This anthology is a collective response to the reification of #EthicsOfAI into commodity forms. It explores how industry participation in ‘ethical AI’ research has created a new ‘economy of virtue’—a massive network of actors variously situated across industry, civil society, and universities, producing and circulating #ethics as a service and a product.

AACL-IJCNLP 2022 is over and it was a pleasure to attend
virtually - despite the painfully noticeable time difference.

Our paper "The Lifecycle of "Facts": A Survey of Social Bias in Knowledge Graphs" (co-author Ricardo Usbeck) is now available in the proceedings:

I work in research at the University of Osnabrück in the #EthicsOfAI group. I studied Philosophy and Digital Media at the University of Bremen and worked as software usability tester, international quality manager and digital society expert. My research focuses on digital society, monitoring algorithmic systems and the Ethics in AI.
