1/ @AOC is completely on point. I used to work on face reco commercially (and having been on the wrong side of working on a biased model), I thought people might find helpful concrete examples of *some* of the ways face AI systems can come to be biased.

I have long admired @timnitGebru for her brilliance, moral courage, clear voice in speaking up for what is right, & influential scholarship. It is truly terrible that Google would do this.

In this thread, I want to share some of Timnit's work I love

28/ p.s. Absolutely none of this thread is meant to represent the opinions of my employer.
p.p.s. I hope to see more legislators, beyond @AOC and @RonWyden, providing such sophisticated treatments of critically overlooked tech policy issues.
