"When you're using chatbots as a source of information, you're not even taking the step of assessing 'Where does this information come from?'," says Dr Gebru
Dr Gebru mentions their paper:

'AI' doesn't have it's own agency, don't be deluding into thinking it has, says Dr. Gebru

"AI is a marketing term, it gets to mean what people want it to mean", says Dr Gebru
How might chatbots reinforce stereotypical narratives about Palestine?

And others dance before it as an ancient friend.
