  “People's lives are at stake, but not because of some super intelligent system,” Buolamwini says, “but because of an overreliance on technical systems.  I want people to understand that the harms are real, and that they're present.”  —  https://www.rollingstone.com/ ...

  “@safiyanoble, @timnitGebru, @jovialjoy , @ruchowdh , and Gangadharan have been calling for regulation for years, as soon as they saw the harm automated systems have on marginalized communities and people of color. But now that those harms could extend to the broader population,.…

  Would love to see regulators welcome all of these amazing women to the table, in order to understand how to regulate AI. Don't be scared to learn, welcome all of them — they know what they're talking about!

  “There are a few things they all want us to know: AI is not magic. LLMs are not sentient beings, and they won't become sentient. And the problems with these technologies aren't abstractions — they're here now and we need to take them seriously today.”👏🏾 https://www-rollingstone-c…

  Long overdue coverage for the women who warned us about AI. Thank you, @lorenaoneil for the story. Thank you, @timnitGebru, @safiyanoble, @jovialjoy, @mmitchell_ai, @emilymbender, @ruchowdh for all you do.

  Thank you to Lorena for writing this article, highlighting our works and showing that this is a collective effort. I like that you didn't equivocate about the fact that I was fired. The part about Hinton was such a great example of where we are with the doomers 🙄 [image]

  Amazing article. From colorism, misogyny, racism, to exclusion of benefits and job applications, Women have been whistleblowing AI and tech companies for years.

  There are some stories that you know will stay with you for a very long time, and this is one of them. Had the honor of profiling these five women who have been warning about AI risks before you'd ever heard of ChatGPT. My latest for @RollingStone https://www.rollingstone.com/ ..…

  “How would that risk have changed if we'd listened to Gebru? What if we had heard the voices of the women like her who've been waving the flag about AI and machine learning?” Necessary read. How much better off we'd be if people actually listened to BW. https://www.rollingstone.c…

• @leonieclaude @leonieclaude on x

  This story needs to be told again and again: 'As AI has exploded into the public consciousness, the men who created them have cried crisis. (...) How would that risk have changed if we'd listened to women like @timnitGebru?' @lorenaoneil https://www.rollingstone.com/ ...

  Alas, some recognition AI pioneers ⁦@safiyanoble⁩ , ⁦@timnitGebru⁩ , ⁦@jovialjoy⁩ , ⁦@ruchowdh⁩. So many ignored or tried to trample their brilliant research and prescient warnings. It's not too late to listen to them and act. https://www.rollingstone.com/ ...

  I am absolutely floored by this coverage of the amazing women changing the present and future of AI: https://www.rollingstone.com/ ... @timnitGebru, @ruchowdh, @safiyanoble, @jovialjoy... Thank you for being the absolute rockstars that you are, and for the work that you do! ✨
