Building trustworthy AI requires building public trust in how AI is developed. While the majority of AI production/resources are concentrated within a few companies in even fewer countries, alternative spaces are emerging for more people to participate in creating, applying, and governing data and data-generated ML models. New initiatives such as BigScience and BigCode seek to change extractive methods of AI production, replacing secretive web scraping with data stewardship and other data rights-affirming tools, practices, and systems. Through a workshop conducted through Miro, we will walk through the current methods of data procurement for building ML models and discuss opportunities to integrate community preferences into the AI production pipeline. Target participants will include contributors to open source datasets or open source code repositories. The outcome will be a public Miro user flow diagram representing the diversity of perspectives from participants and summarising key takeaways from the discussion.
For months I collected data about the representation of Dalit, Adivasi and OBC students and researchers at various levels of academia in some of the elite universities in India.
The results were stark. That story for @[email protected] in 6 charts.

I'm evangelizing for Mastodon because Twitter is likely toast, but I also want to be very clear that Black and disabled folks have built community infrastructure on Twitter that is real and meaningful.
We all need to be mindful of what Elon is destroying, and who it harms most.
