San Francisco police seek permission for its robots to use deadly force
Have we learned nothing from Robocop?
"The San Francisco Police Department is currently petitioning the city's Board of Supervisors for permission to deploy robots to kill suspects that law enforcement deems a sufficient threat … The draft policy, which was written by the SFPD itself"
The Whiteness of Mastodon

"I had the chance to discuss Musk’s takeover with Dr. Johnathan Flowers, who studies the philosophy of technology, and to learn more about some of the exclusive norms he’s observed that may create obstacles to communities of color when contemplating the switch to Mastodon, or potentially to their safety in the 'Fediverse.'"
January 16-19, 2023, I'm organising and teaching a #WinterSchool on #AI & #society (and #semiotics) in Olomouc, Czechia! Open and free participation to all students. Apply until Dec 20, 2022. More info ➡️ https://oltk.upol.cz/aktuality/#c68751

Article about #Galactica with mentions of @emilymbender and @garymarcus among others. Feedback had its effect this time with demo being stopped!

@tilo @kbkorb This is hilarious! “Here, across multiple experiments (N = 1,022) we reveal a feedback loop where human-AI interactions alter processes underlying human perceptual, emotion and social judgements that subsequently amplify biases in humans.” -> humans are open systems so they learn well from their #feedback loop... especially when it is delivered - as I suspect - in a manner of #Pavlovian #conditioning

@kordinglab
“human-AI interactions create a feedback loop where small biases emerging from either side increase subsequent human error. First, AI algorithms amplify small biases embedded in the human data they were trained on. Then, when interacting with biased AI algorithms, humans learned to become more biased.”
👀 Seeing too many toots from a friend, and muting them for half an hour till you have the time.
Turning off boosts to see what people are actually saying.
📌 Pinning a hashtag for today to monitor its updates.
🚥 Setting up a filter to skip the posts you don't want right now.
#Mastodon already has so many ways you can customise your #timeline—for now, for the moment, or forever.
Does it really need an #algorithm? 🤖
