We just had a chance to interview Carissa Véliz, author of Privacy is Power and associate professor at the Institute for Ethics in AI at the University of Oxford.
We talked about how predictive AI will make a 'meritocracy' impossible, how lifelike chat bots are designed to deceive you, and the importance of privacy in the digital age. Catch the episode on our YouTube channel or your favorite podcast app now!
Carissa Véliz is an associate professor at the Institute for Ethics in AI at the University of Oxford, a renowned author and speaker, a board member of the Proton Foundation, and a member of UNESCO's Women 4 Ethical AI.
Her new book Prophecy comes out April 21st and is now available for pre-order.
Prophecy is about how extensive use of predictive analytics is undermining our abilities to defy the odds, making systems unaccountable, and increasing risk in business and society while creating a false sense of security.

I was talking with a friend about dating apps, privacy, security and safety.
They are using Feeld, which lets you tag specific kinks -- and which changed their TOS about 2 years ago (IIRC) to specify that they sell user data. (In a massive betrayal of the trust and safety of their user base.)
My friend's response was that they aren't ashamed of who they are and if an app wants to sell their data, no big deal.
My position was that in a time of rising fascism, it's really worth thinking about how in the 1930's, IBM set up the systems to tag and sort people by "undesirable" qualities. In Germany.
I fear for people with all my heart.
For the reading comprehension impaired, let me be clear: I'm not telling anyone not to live their life. I'm saying be smart, raise your game on privacy and security, and keep yourself and your people as safe as you can in a brutal world.
@Em0nM4stodon wrote a great article on data privacy and dating apps (with a focus on queer apps but also relevant to any dating apps).
Read it, share it with your people, and act on it.

New Privacy Guides article 🌈👁️🗨️
by me:When talking about data privacy and LGBTQ+ experiences, it's inevitable to also discuss queer dating apps.
Many factors contribute in making queer people more likely to seek love and friendship online.
Unfortunately, dating apps are horrible for data privacy, and it's even worse for queer dating apps.
