California nurses are protesting Kaiser's embrace of unreliable AI systems. I've spoken to nurses who have complained about them: They're prone to making incorrect diagnoses and often dangerously expedite patient care. @CalNurses are pushing back today: nationalnursesunited.org/press/cna-dema…
The "technology is inevitable" line of thinking is neither as wise nor open-minded as people like this tend to think it is when the issue has never been with "a technology" but its exploitative implementation.

“AI” is too sloppy a term to refer to current commercial generative systems. How about Synthetic Homogenizing Information Technology? Catchy acronym, too. Easy to remember. 👀😁
Why does the new Artificial Intelligence Safety and Security Board have so many members with clear vested interests in rapid, unregulated AI adoption, and so few who have AI expertise without those vested interests?

@SecMayorkas With my utmost respect the board is made almost entirely of vested interests who are looking after their own interests over the interests of Americans. This board is not adequate for the task. Please consider adding more experts and leaders of affected industries and less CEOs 🙏

Whatever one thinks about standardized testing for admissions, surely their purpose is not to make a profit for private equity companies, yes?
"The fact that data workers are integrated into industrial structures designed to keep them uninformed and subject to surveillance, retaliation, and wage theft does not mean that they do not have ethical concerns about their work and the AI applications it supports."

Wanted to share this amazing essay from artist Dave Palumbo. Who btw is an incredible artist so he definitely knows what he’s talking about! So well written, and I agree so much with this. Worth a read: muddycolors.com/2024/04/the-a-…
The Society of Authors collected survey data from 800 of its members and found that 26% of illustrators and 36% of translators had already lost work due to generative AI. This tracks completely with anecdotal data from my own reporting. Not good. www2.societyofauthors.org/2024/04/11/soa…
Because it's #EarthDay (and tbh Earth Week/Month/Year/Decade/Century/Always), I'm resharing the Against AI and Its Environmental Harms Library. It's a collective, open resource for gathering work about AI and its environmental impacts. Find the library at: pad.riseup.net/p/Against_AI_a…
How many of our social institutions will GenAI overwhelm before we began to hold the developers responsible? They may as well be spewing toxic chemicals into the water.

@SashaMTL Omg I’ve been collecting a sub genre of gen AI art because it weirds me out every time - barbershop A frames.
These licensing deals between publishers and AI companies really, truly depress me—have we learned so little since the last deals w Facebook and Google? Getting a few scraps in exchange for letting tech co's cannibalize and profit from journalists' work? ft.com/content/333287…
It’s good to see generative AI companies moving towards licensing the training data they use. But it’s important that they license all their data, not just content from the big players who are most likely to sue them if they don’t.

@KatieConradKS @LovenLoverLover @ednewtonrex @Puidii1 Perhaps a more solid argument is that this compressed data can't be removed from a model (same problem with CSAM baked into blockchain). But I think you'd need to be able to show decompression was possible and that it was therefore 'stored' (as opposed to metadata).
@KatieConradKS @LovenLoverLover @ednewtonrex @Puidii1 Search engines do incorporate (just 50% of google searches leave their walled garden). Social media moderation is subject to all the same criticisms you mentioned re low paid workers and PTSD. Issue with training data is the same - that it is the internet, warts and all.
@KatieConradKS @LovenLoverLover @ednewtonrex @Puidii1 Revenue was much better for me as an independent artist when people paid for downloads rather than expected to get all music for free in their streaming subscription. Today is definitely worse and talk of live revenue is a distraction.
