I’m working on an AI policy for my org that allows us to opt out of AI note taking and prohibits AI in our comms/storytelling. here is my list of reasons for the policy, but my board is asking me to cite sources. Can you help me with any good references you would cite for any of these? (Or an edit or restatement where I’ve gotten it wrong or inaccurate?)

*if you want to argue about why I shouldn’t have this policy kindly crawl into a hole in the ground and cover yourself with soil

Whether you are concerned or not about the harm caused by the technologies pushed on us with the current AI Hype, I highly recommend watching this excellent interview by 404 Media's @samleecole with @alex and @emilymbender from the DAIR Institute: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UwBZiuH-1QY

And I say "whether you are concerned or not" because this will affect you one way or another, whether you care about it or not. In fact, it very likely already does.

#Introduction

I've got a lot of things in my bio, but most recently finished a PhD (after a VERY long haul) which began in Media (indie film history) and morphed into Management (organizational change). Work at a uni in program and project management (mostly IT) and am full stack hobbyist dev (mostly Python.)

Best to not expect anything particularly academic or intelligent from me though - you'll get boosts, some artsy stuff, and dumb jokes. Occasionally hair pics.

Good people of the fediverse, what is a good collaborative task-list app for a neurodivergent team (dyslexia, dyscalculia, ADHD, and autism)?

Preferably a free one. Preferably no LLM integration. No Meta products.

I'm looking for full-time work!

I work at the intersection of social and technical systems, and specialize in building up people, programs, partnerships, and organizations around open source.

I have a deep track record in complex community relations, am fluent in the nuts and bolts of many technologies, and have spanned governance, org development, nonprofit and people management, comms, marketing, events, and beyond.

Let's fly!
