#whatmakesacademicwritinghuman — Public Fediverse posts

Who else is doing research on artificial intelligence and academic writing that is policy and ethics-oriented?

Please boost, if you can, as I am hoping to reach #interdisciplinary voices & approaches to this, especially from the so-called #GlobalSouth, namely communities that don't seem to be getting much of a look-in right now on this 'western' concocted concern.

This arrived, and am reading it all - anyone else read(ing) it? #CriticalRealism #WhatMakesAcademicWritingHuman(e) #AcWri #ArtificialIntelligence #AI

Hello Iris, have you read the book? What makes you think I have given the answer? Only asking because I think I have given the answer, but I'm not sure how others are reading what I wrote.

My new research is building on #WhatMakesWritingAcademic to ask #WhatMakesAcademicWritingHuman(e)

And thank you very much for engaging - I follow you here and on T. because you are part of the voices that need to be heard on AI, as well as all of these:

... and on my account of #WhatMakesWritingAcademic, a 'commitment to the truth' is essential.

It is one of the #SAPs (Social Academic Practices) that are a necessary condition for writing to be academic (p. 74):

I've just finished reading these 2 texts in parallel, as I grapple with #WhatMakesAcademicWritingHuman:

"I’m not going to converse with people who won’t posit my humanity as an axiom in the conversation" (https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/ai-artificial-intelligence-chatbots-emily-m-bender.html)

and

"unless we can be clear about the human [...], discussions of the ‘post’ cannot meaningfully be brought to a close"

ntm for research on #AcWri:

"the [AI] training process is highly dependent on prior labelling performed by a human operator. This is problematic because it crystallises the operator’s cultural biases (e.g. racism and sexism) as well as her possible mistakes".

What other biases are being built in to #StoryMachines for #AcademicWriting?
