"How would that risk [of ‘AI'] have changed if we’d listened to [Timnit] Gebru? What if we had heard the voices of the women like her who’ve been waving the flag about AI and machine learning?”

Full disclosure: I was a huge supporter of all of them until I learned here that I was misguided by my privilege and my tech heroes. I now can't stand to listen to 80k podcast for more than a few minutes. I think that *ALL* of the #TESCREAL philosophies are unintentionally causing great harm to society and humanity. Reading about #TimnitGebru and #MelanieMitchell really drove it home for me.

#UnintentionalEvil #ArogantAltruism

Researching #KnowledgeGraphs as a tool for fact checking of #LLMs , I learned of #TimnitGebru's brilliant work in exposing the "do evil" values at BigTech. And the new concept (for me) of #TESCREAL. From Wikipedia:
"
#Gebru has used the acronym TESCREAL (Transhumanism, Extropianism, Singularitarianism, Cosmism, Rationalism, Effective Altruism, and Longtermism) to describe a set of overlapping belief systems ... right-leaning influence in the tech industry.[64][65]

"The Ethiopian-born computer scientist lost her job after pointing out the inequalities built into AI. But after decades working with technology companies, she knows all too much about discrimination"

“We read the paper that forced #TimnitGebru out of Google.”

@timnitGebru Excellent thread by the brilliant #TimnitGebru on the dangers of #chatgpt #bard and other #AI #Chatbots including potential innovations into further invasion into our privacy

📺 Sunday Night #60Minutes-watching America (median age > 65) got a primer on *one of the major problems with #GenerativeAI large language models, #ChatGPT in particular.

#LeslieStahl talked to #TimnitGebru, the "forced out" Google employee who ID'd problems with language models programmed with mountains of random data/images from the internet.

On the bird site, @nicolaspapernot posted a nice summary of @timnitGebru #SaTML thought-provoking keynote "Eugenics and the Promise of Utopia through Artificial General Intelligence". Video will become available online at conference web site.

My main take away: targeting (promising) AGI is inherently dangerous -- we should focus on "well-scoped systems" instead.

To review: ChatGPT is “autocorrect on steroids”, to quote AI researcher #GaryMarcus, or a “stochastic parrot”, to quote #EmilyBender, #TimnitGebru, #AngelinaMcMillan-Major, and #MargaretMitchell. It can mimic the form of a text, but does not understand the function of the text.

Interview with #TimnitGebru on #AI #regulation starting on the point:

“What can we do right now to make AI more fair?” — “The baseline is labor protection and whistleblower protection and anti-discrimination laws.”

The first time I encountered #TimnitGebru's work was through her paper, Datasheets for Datasets, which has become an important reference for many researchers.
https://arxiv.org/abs/1803.09010

She's been recently forced out of Google’s ethical AI team:
