🛎 Attention scientific conference organisers:

It is not acceptable in this day and age not to organise your face to face events as hybrid.

I’ll tell you why 🧵

Today's approach to "AI" R&D:

1) Pump out lots and lots and lots of papers.
2) Progress is so fast! Look how many papers there are on arXiv.
3) Sorry, no time to create meaningful evaluation. Gotta keep up with arXiv!
4) See, look at those big numbers. That's SUPERHUMAN!

I was planning on sending a paper to @emnlpmeeting, but apparently it’s illegal for me to go to the UAE so that’s off the table.

So much for a “culture that embraces diversity while emphasizing mutual tolerance and privacy”

📢 tech & ethics folks: I've collected 🧵 of pointers to official statements and discussions on what the big tech has done/should do for 🇺🇦 war. Again, this is not just about 🇺🇦: what we do now sets precedent for the future. Comments, updates & corrections welcome!

@AngloPeranakan Summarizing, @AngloPeranakan pointed out that knowing how to tune a model to get a good score on some data set is not the same thing as knowing how to understand the model, the data, where the data came from, and what effect the model will have when applied in the world.

Liebe Frauen, falls ihr jemals an euch und euren Talenten zweifelt und glaubt, dass ihr einem Job oder einer Aufgabe nicht gewachsen seid: Schaut euch an, wie mittelmäßige Männer dieses Land regieren und untereinander Jobs tauschen als wären es Spielkarten. Ihr könnt alles.

there's no remedy for imposter syndrome like watching 3 white men talk about everything AI/ML, ethics and AGI for 1.5 hours 🙄

Anyone who can't be bothered to understand the phenomena that they claim to be "working on"
