Indigenous AI must be regionally rooted, tied to local laws and protocols, designed with diverse standards and programming logic, and created with future cultural interrelationships in mind. #IndigenousAI #AIethics #decolonizingai oldwaysnew.com/news/2021/10/2…
As I recently told @FortuneMagazine
As artificial intelligence advances, the ability to differentiate between human- and AI-generated content online is becoming a necessity. This is where proof of personhood comes in. worldcoin.org/blog/worldcoin…
Writing my thesis on Speculations on AI and one of the scenarios I had thought about last month is how there might be people using AI as an aggregated representation of particular demographics as part of user research :))) I really thought this would take a few years, damnn
Now class, can anyone tell me why this might be a bad idea?
Is Smiley Shoggoth the "carbon footprint" of AI risk discourse? Billionaire-backed mindrot platformed across billionaire-owned media that feels designed to delay action on, and deflect/distract from the historical, ongoing, and future colonial structures and harms of #AI. Hmm 🤔

Agents of Doom: Who is creating the apocalypse and why
There are a handful of actors who are the most likely to cause a global catastrophe, but their power goes unchecked, says Luke Kemp.
Generative AI systems are trained upon vast datasets of centuries of human creative and intellectual work. They should thus belong to the commons, to all humanity, rather than to a handful of powerful for-profit corporations.
Here's a recap of some recent ChatGPT events that, even if you don't care about the moral dimensions, should give investors concern about pumping funds into a new technology that may soon be facing serious legal actions:
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

This passage describes structures (core/periphery) and functions (disempowerement) of colonization, but appears in an article passionately arguing against the idea of bringing decolonization with us into how we think about AI. I stare at it and don't know where to begin.

Ever found the discourse around "intelligence" in "A(G)I" squicky or heard folks pointing out the connection w/eugenics & wondered what that was about? History of it all can be found in this excellent talk by @timnitGebru (w/ co-author @xriskology) youtube.com/watch?v=P7XT4T…

Add the huge amount of energy necessary to train these #AI models and water to cool its data centers and the raw materials for all the machines and cables involved etc… AI technologies are not sustainable

A conversation with Michael Running Wolf, a computer scientist and software engineer, AI ethicist, and founder of Indigenous in AI.
The dude who literally has never had any training in "AI" whether it is projects to show for or anything else is telling YOU what you know or don't know about LLMs? And that's the guy who gets to write an op-ed on @TIME advocating for literal air strikes on data centers...
