Questions for Oct 23 – AI readings
Q 1 – How do we gather and assimilate the vast diversity of ‘voices’ to determine fairness in the AI algorithm? I am interested in the practical tools that are required or need to be developed to facilitate a globally balanced AI system. How we arrive at a bias-free algorithmic decision by developing an AI system that considers intersectionality across personal, communal and at the institutional level? “Decolonoizing AI”
Q 2 - (In reference to Microsoft’s Japanese schoolgirl AI has fallen into a deep, creepy depression.) Is this ‘character’ capable of programming her feelings? How can you program emotions? I’m thinking human intervention is inevitable in a live blog!
Q 3 – Replikate: Can this App, which acts as a mirror, shatter the illusion we have of ourselves? How will it impact the user’s own sense of identity?
Q 4 – Will advances in AI eventually eliminate the use of human subjects in scientific research?
Q 5 – “Anon” – The fear today is privacy and surveillance.
What about the threat of becoming anonymous/ our identities/ histories getting erased/ replaced/ mutilated?
