Can't say I am surprised. Unfortunately, bulding a better world for everyone isn't a priority for #bigtech or the #tech industry. https://t.co/IFgB2rQdfz If men can't change their toxic and entitled behavior, I don't need another tech billionaire facilitating these actions.

"Period prediction is only the beginning of the company’s interest in menstruation and fertility. 'It’s an underinvested area in wearables'". Bloody hell... ht @hypervisible. #FemTech #AIhealth #privacy #surveillance

A #metaverse "offers a path toward total consolidation, where one entity sells you entertainment, social connection, trousers, antifreeze, and everything in between"; like "a megascale Amazon" or "the black hole of consumption". Enough already😱ht @Edsall

Only 5-15 % of #AI applications are expected to be in the domain of higher risk. That number is probably too small to stop European #innovation. People only look at the cost of #regulation not at the benefit/public good. @meerihaataja @j2bryson #EUAIAct

"what happens to #data during conflicts or governmental collapse needs to be given more attention" especially in "war-torn areas where information can be used to create a lot of havoc.” History repeating (WW2)? Listen to @CarissaVeliz & @azeem's talk below
History shows that collecting too much #data & not having measures to quickly delete that data can have fatal consequences. We're currently making both mistakes, on a much larger scale than ever before. Great talk betw @carissaveliz and @azeem. https://t.co/srtqfHbWjS

#nowreading "AI & Society" Looks to be a really interesting counter-argument to the "relational turn" in #AIEthics #robotrights. So much so that it could be titled "The Properties Approach Strikes Back" @MCoeckelbergh @JoshGellers @grok_ @JohnDanaher

Scary example of 'black box' #AI, here in the context of x-rays, which reveals more about patients (i.e. the social construct of race) than doctors should know. And no one knows why. (caveat: study is currently only a preprint) #AIethics #explainability
