AI systems present an opportunity to reflect society's biases. “However, realizing this potential requires careful attention to both technical and social considerations,” says HAI Faculty Affiliate @sanmikoyejo.bsky.social in his latest op-ed via @theguardian.com: www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

We have an opportunity to build systems that don’t just replicate our current inequities. Will we take them?

I've recently put together a "Fairness FAQ": tinyurl.com/fairness-faq. If you work in non-fairness ML and you've heard about fairness, perhaps you've wondered things like what the best definitions of fairness are, and whether we can train algorithms that optimize for it.

#NewPaper We designed an "algorithmic microscope" & called it the Vendiscope. It is a new companion in the discovery process for scientists across fields and a powerful tool for diagnosing datasets and models for AI researchers. #AlgorithmicMicroscopy

I'm going to slowly repost my math notes from the other site🐦 here🦋; it's the only thing I posted over there that I think may have some long-term value & worth not deleting.

These started out as notes for myself, but people seem to appreciate them. 😅

I'll keep track of all of them in this thread.
