Thanks for sharing this! Interesting to see what people are looking for when they discover the rave scene.

I suppose to wrap up my whole message in one closing statement : people who deny systematic inequality are braindead and for whatever reason, they were on my mind while reading this article.

In my mind, this is the whole purpose of regulation. A strong governing body can put in restrictions to ensure people follow the relevant standards. Environmental protection agencies, for example, help ensure that people who understand waste are involved in corporate production processes. Regulation around AI implementation and transparency could enforce that people think about these or that it at the very least goes through a proper review process. Think international review boards for academic studies, but applied to the implementation or design of AI.

I’ll be curious what they find out about removing these biases, how do we even define a racist-less model? We have nothing to compare it to

AI ethics is a field which very much exists- there are plenty of ways to measure and define how racist or biased a model is. The comparison groups are typically other demographics.... such as in this article, where they compare AAE to standard English.

While it may be obvious to you, most people don't have the data literacy to understand this, let alone use this information to decide where it can/should be implemented and how to counteract the baked in bias. Unfortunately, as is mentioned in the article, people believe the problem is going away when it is not.

Been sick for 13 days, went in to urgent care yesterday because it had progressed to a sore throat in the last few days and turns out it's strep. Glad I'm on antibiotics and hoping to feel better soon.

Just because there's no ethical consumption under capitalism doesn't mean that we have zero control over what we consume. It's perfectly fine to hold a viewpoint of trying to minimize harm where you can and when you're aware of it. Where you draw your lines doesn't have to be perfect either (after all, we're human).

My understanding of the word comes from how I've seen it used in American culture. I'm not enough of an etymologist or a sociologist to accurately claim where the term itself was first created or how prevalent its various uses are and will gladly defer to others with more expertise. Thank you for sharing the wiki article for those who are unaware of genders outside the binary in different cultures 💜

To be fair, they also do the same with... well everyone. They like a strict hierarchy with straight white married christian cis men at the top.

Just want to acknowledge the the writing and title choice in the article itself are annoyingly smug, but the data analysis itself I found interesting.
