What a brilliant session with @emilymbender in conversation with @Kobotic at #RMIT tonight.

Key takeaways:
- #BenderRule - name the language you're working in
- #AI is not one technology - it's many in a trenchcoat. Be specific.
- Who benefits from the changes wrought by AI and who bears the harms and externalities?
- AI is hype - learn enough to cut through it, ask difficult questions
- "Pile of racist linear algebra"
- Read everything by @karenhao
- Read #TheAICon by Emily and @alex
- Read @CriticalAI

@KathyReid @emilymbender @Kobotic @karenhao @alex @CriticalAI You were there too! I am.looking forward to reading the booka
@KathyReid @emilymbender @Kobotic @karenhao @alex @CriticalAI I would have posted a photo from the other side of the room but I left my phone at home. But I did get to give Emily a zine! ('Quotes I really wanted to use in my PhD about generative text but didn't.')
thanks for the “heads up” for this event @KathyReid the talk gives some underpinning for the #AI / #whitecollar news reporting on the subject that I’ve been assembling since ‘December ‘22 < https://ioc.exchange/tags/WhiteCollar>
