This article on how AI defines “beautiful” women takes what feels obvious and makes it matter. It is surprising and hard to read and made me feel and wonder. It is proof of why we need, will always need, human journalists who know their craft. https://t.co/1g6R88zTW1
@awichowski great talk today at #datauniverse. Was reminded of Thomas R Dye and ‘Who’s running America?’ Was not entirely surprised that this extended to the early tech founder generation. Fascinating.
No election is free or fair without access to information & public participation.
We need transparent policies & practices, anchored in human rights to build back trust & uphold democracy.
🎧@ColumbiaSIPA adjunct @awichowski joined @NorwayCGSanFran and Cecilie Hersleth on the 'Tech Diplomacy' Podcast to discuss the growing impact of Big Tech on geopolitics, and her book 'The Information Trade' which outlined her concept of 'Net-States'.

Logged on for first time in ages, thinking maybe I'm done with twitter -- and then saw this. Thank you Sir Park Bench Singer! Thank you Humans of the Park! Thank you BonJovi!
A man was sitting alone, on a bench in a park, singing Bon Jovi's Living on a Prayer by himself.
By the end, the entire park joined along to sing with him.

I met the extraordinary Marijka @MHoczko when I was a surly-as-hell 15 yr old, thinking there’s no way my soon-to-be stepmom could impress me. But it’s Marijka! She radiates warmth & kindness & love, I was instantly entranced-and forever grateful she’s my family #UkrainiansWeLove
