As 2 amazing #WIConf23 days come to a close. There are 2 things we want to leave you with:

1. All sessions have been recorded. You can watch them on zoom or our website soon.

2. @SandraWachter will speak about #algorithms & #discrimination tomorrow: https://www.weizenbaum-institut.de/events/sandra-wachter-protecting-algorithmic-groups-under-anti-discrimination-law/

Interesting discussion with @pnhoward at #WIConf23 on ‚publication bias‘ or ‚file drawer problem‘: papers that prove when something does not have an effect, have a hard chance of being published. This needs to change in order to move forward against #disinformation

One important way to fight #misinformation is reestablishing trust in public institutions. If you're interested to find out more, check out the International Panel on the Information Environment

#WIConf23

The good news: content labelling works to give users a better understanding of what they read. But #platforms don’t do this consistently. Validating truth claims is very difficult to do, especially on scale. #WIConf23

Most of the #misinformation content online is not in English, but arabic, turkish or spanish. Often outside the scope of research. #WIConf23

In a world in which we can’t agree on truths, it's very difficult to get policymakers to move forward.

- @pnhoward starts off his #WIConf23 keynote on the relevance of #misinformation #disinformation and the challenges digital researchers face today

Now, it’s important to keep reminding ourselves that what we see may not the truth. It opens a new field of policies, of legal discussions, and we as a society need to debate where to set the boundaries. - Barbara Pfetsch #WIConf23

What happens when AI is trained with AI generated content? Egor Kraft explains data cannibalism #WIConf23

The term generative #AI is very ambiguous. It has become a marketing term. Perhaps applied statistics would be a more honest description. - David Berry #WIConf23

It’s actually difficult NOT to use AI nowadays. We sometimes cannot even escape it.

discuss generative #AI on tonight’s #WIConf23 panel

The #WIConf23 discusses the key questions of the future of our society and brings together researchers, activists, artists and people that develop spaces to foster digital involvement.
Ina Czyborra, Berlin Senator for Science, Health, Care & Equality

With #ChatGPT #Bard and Co. we're witnessing a revolution that brings many questions. What better place is there to discuss all this than the Weizenbaum Institute?
@starkwatzinger, Federal Minister for Education and Research @bmbf_bund sends her greetings to #WIConf23

The #WIConf23 program team, Bettina Berendt, Elizaveta Kuznetsova, and Martin Krzywdzinski, gives us an intro into the topic "on the move" - we'll talk about #work #migration #surveillance, the discourse on #AI, as well as #art and #design

"The digital world can be designed by human values" Christoph Neuberger kicks off #WIConf23 and reminds us of Joseph Weizenbaum's critique in the middle of vibrant debate on #AI

We're ready for #WIConf23! Looking forward to 2 days of exciting talks about #AI #migration #labor #SocialMedia #BigData 😎🤓

100 years after Joseph Weizenbaum's birth and 57 years after #ELIZA, #ChatGPT re-opens many of the same concerns and adds some more. Join #WIConf23 to reflect on the over-hyped game changer and get to know a “digital version” of the AI philosopher.

Online-Tickets are still available! June 19 & 20 ➡️ https://events.zoom.us/ev/AofOT0zfzAcEgP5uiRVuRo_S4dWxcwvTOeG3cOIZ3CJHku0hGrOW~AggLXsr32QYFjq8BlYLZ5I06Dg

#AI systems & #algorithmic management in the #workplace influence work processes and imply new forms of #labor control. At the #WIConf23, we'll talk about how employee representatives respond to this.

June 19 & 20. The venue is fully booked by now. But you can still join us online!

Tools like #ChatGPT or #StableDiffusion raise complicated questions about authorship and creativity, and pose risks when generating #fakenews. At the #WIConf23 next week, scientists and artists will discuss the effects #AI as a generative technology.

With the upcoming #AIAct, the #EU aims to comprehensively regulate Artificial Intelligence. At the Weizenbaum Conference June 19 & 20, we'll take a look at the law's challenges and opportunities for researchers, practitioners, and citizens. #WIConf23
