@kentindell @neil Very true.

Still, I wish they were here... selfishly. 😅

I miss Liza Dixon's #autonowashing conversations as well, notably.

@CrackedWindscreen @kentindell The #MachineLearning community needs a major reckoning in many ways (i.e. privacy, bias), but one of the *major* things that is almost never discussed is systems safety as it pertains to direct, physical harm.

For example, it is absolutely absurd that #Karpathy and others at #Tesla could basically use #IEEE #CVPR as a platform for #autonowashing disguised as legitimate ML and #MachineVision work.

No wonder the media stands no chance in grasping the real issues.

I would implore the #media to educate themselves on these subtleties for future articles.

I would also invite everyone to review Liza Dixon's seminal work on #autonowashing - a dangerous over-exaggeration of automated driving system capabilities: https://lizadixon.com/Autonowashing

Liza is on the 🐦 site here: https://twitter.com/lizadixon

Liza has always been steadfast at helping the media and the broader public understand these technologies from a #HumanFactors perspective.

That is it.

Happy #Monday!

@bgluckman Yeah... I mean... even just thinking of the "systems/industrial safety circle" on Twitter that you and I would interact with often (mostly on Tesla-oriented topics)...

Clearly, Musk is just going to de-boost all of that right away, if he has not done so already.

Try to find #autonowashing on Twitter after that.

Twitter was simply not viable for me anymore.

Why even bother was my view also.
