    Previously that agreement encouraged researchers to contribute technical work that could help identify & fix discriminatory model behavior related to gender/race/age/wealth inequality.  Such biases can directly affect end users,harm minorities, econ disadvantaged groups  —  www.w…

    We are witnessing a new trend in AI:  —  Safety, fairness, misinformation & responsibility are removed  —  Safety is being deliberately deprioritized because those who hold the monopoly on AI view it as an obstacle to their dominance.  We cannot fail to challenge this!  —  www.wi…

    “Human flourishing” has long been on my list of bullshit terms wrt AI - some memed Aristotle and it became the bullshit term of AI ethics - but now it's a right wing dog whistle.  —  Keep an eye on how the AISI will be weaponized as the Trump/Musk AI Act is written.  1/  —  www.w…

    “'The Trump administration has removed safety, fairness, misinformation, and responsibility as things it values for AI, which I think speaks for itself,' says one researcher at an organization working with the AI Safety Institute, who asked not to be named for fear of reprisal.”

    Keeping this in mind next time I see a “Making AI More Ethical” workshop on campus.  [embedded post]

    Stripping ‘AI safety’ from requirements while demanding economic competitiveness is like suggesting we can sell more cars by removing seatbelts.  Hallucinating AIs don't create value—they create lies.  Real competitiveness requires responsible accuracy, not ideological blindspots…

    I guess that confirms there's an overlap in the Venn diagram of “people mad their ERP chat bot told them to stop being bigoted” and “people now running previously serious, professional federal agencies.”  [embedded post]
