Emily Denton and I are organizing this workshop. Or trying to. Emily has been doing all the work right now and you know what she’s dealing with. We had also signed up to write a book on the subject? Maybe the book will write itself because I haven’t been.

Guess what? @mmitchell_ai’s corp access is now locked. I’m wondering if she’s going to get an email to her personal email accepting her “resignation.” I have not seen a company that has this little shame in a while.

This workshop is inspired by recent concerns on the ethics of what we accept in the AI research field. It's meant to compliment the advocacy of those like @forcriticaltech & practical steps taken by PCs @NeurIPSConf @aclmeeting to get us to do better. https://t.co/EWFg8bjwMg
