Our review of 101 sign language AI papers reveals systemic biases in the current state of the research and misalignment with broader deaf languaging patterns. Some of these biases are now baked-in as standards. Time for Deaf-led research to shape the future of sign language AI.

10 Followers 49 FollowingScholars with a political commitment to the principles of Crip Linguistics: do not do this. This kind of critique is often used to attack black, brown, deaf, disabled marginalized scholars. P.S. AI edited work is excruciating to read.
Yesterday, I received the most uncollegial review of my career. It began by attacking my English (I need an editor and AI) and ended by attacking my ASL (I didn’t understand my participants’ signing). Ironically, it also repeatedly told me that I need to cite Crip Linguistics.

Something I’m not hearing a ton about is that Gallaudet Students, from the historic college for the deaf, are also participating in solidarity encampments in the DMV area.
Thank you to the people who are providing alt text to images and videos being shared over the past few days. It’s hard to do on the ground and in the moment, so I appreciate it. Don’t want your labor and solidarity to be overlooked. 💚
I’ve done a lot of marvelous things on this wretched app, but I think this might be the best. To read all the queer youth in the replies and quotes saying how happy and hopeful for a long, fulfilling life seeing lesbian elders makes them is top tier joy! 🥰🥰🥰🧡❤️🤍🩷💜
Too many queer youth say they don’t see elders to give them hope. Please, for #LesbianVisibilityWeek, I’m calling lesbians age 40 and over. Reply or quote with a pic/vid to show our youth they have generations past, present, and well into the future🧡🩷🤍❤️💜

Some Deaf people really gotta give other Deaf people some grace if they aren’t fluent in ASL. Not everyone had the language access like some of us were privileged enough to have.
this! funny i wrote a transcript last month for a presentation about why “good” ASL is not really… well… good. *mind pinging everywhere with likeminded folks*
I mean, what we think we know about “good” ASL is pretty much based on the rules established by mostly hearing linguists (based on data collected from deaf of deaf of deaf white folks) about 50 years ago.
I’d love to host a discussion for signers- either in IS or ASL. DM me if interested and I’ll set up a discussion group. Topic: academic ableism:/ Margaret price’s Crip Spacetime.
I’m planning to host at least one Zoom book discussion of @PriceMargaret’s Crip Spacetime for disabled academics this summer. If there is demand, I can host up to three. I encourage others who have capacity to host too! Save the Date: Tuesday, July 9, 12-1:30PM Central Time!

Europeans aren't poor. They are illiquid. Much of Europe's wealth is stored in safe streets, nice parks, public transit, "free" healthcare, etc. which, it turns out, are too socially expensive for Americans to maintain. Americans take the money instead. The rest is only natural.
Americans severely underestimate how dirt poor most Europeans are. They go spend their American wages there and are amazed at the “quality of life,” not realizing that they’re taking the equivalent of a trip to Disneyland, and everyone around them is the staff.
