What is AI, and why is it harmful? What is AI, and why is it harmful?

This talk serves to demystify and redefine AI in radical ways, as well as highlight how it can harm. We will touch on historical examples — and we will explore critical lenses, which can help us be thoughtful and careful in understanding what AI is and can do. Finally, some ways forwards will be discussed such that we can move towards a better present.

I sometimes post some depressing takes on interaction with #academics here. Well, here's a bit more of a funny example.

#LLM use from a PhD, Dr. James Utley.

The fella took my friend's python code (which was generated with LLM, yeah I know) and re-LLM'd it to a terrible rust port. Which I think is fine, but the guy stripped out any attribution or DOI reference. The design, command, function and the name of the program was kept the same.

@albertcardona #Scientists could get better discovered, if they used hashtags or activate being visible in Mastodon's search (which is opt-in). Too many are invisible without doing it.
I subscribed to important hashtags and get these posts automatically in my TL, so I can discover specialists, if only they use them.

💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 📝📊 The #SAT was first administered to 8,000 students in June 1926, born from #WorldWarI #military I.Q. tests designed by #Princeton psychologist and eugenicist Carl Brigham.

Now taken by two million #students annually, fewer than 10% of U.S. #colleges require it for fall 2026 admissions, a shift accelerated by the #Covid #pandemic and long standing debates about what the test actually measures. The article traces the test’s #evolution from a tool that helped break into the old boys’ network of elite colleges to an #exam whose scores strongly correlate with family #income.

#Tsinghua #University recently hosted a significant #dialogue on #investment #development between #China and #Latin #American and #Caribbean (#LAC) countries. The event aimed at strengthening #economic ties and fostering #collaborative #opportunities, brought together #industry #leaders, #policymakers, and #academics to discuss investment #strategies and economic development. https://cnbusinessforum.com/tsinghua-university-hosts-key-dialogue-on-china-lac-economic-development/

It's wonderful to see the #academic community developing here. The great migration happened during #UPWeek in November, so we'd love to highlight some of our fellow presses in the @aupresses community to help everyone get to know more about #AcademicPublishing in #2023. To start, learn what's #NextUP at SUNY Press: https://sunypress.edu/Blog/2022/Who-is-NextUP-at-SUNY-Press
