"When I question whether AI can ever be ethical or feminist (...) it doesn’t come from cynicism for the sake of it, but from years of watching patterns repeat. The promises to do better, the carefully crafted language of responsibility, the performance of listening, none of it has meaningfully shifted how these systems are built or who they serve."

New piece by Hija Kamran, part of the series "Don't ask AI, ask a peer," an initiative by APC, GenderIT and Global Voices.

@APC really really good piece!!!!
@APC I mean, if we as humans haven't changed our ways in this matter, ai (that copies humans) are not going to be less.
That diagnosis lands. A lot of AI ethics fails because the people most affected are treated as objects of policy, not participants with leverage, refusal, or exit. If governance never makes room for agency before deployment, “responsibility” becomes branding for the same hierarchy in softer language.
