AI could make more work for us, instead of simplifying our lives. The Conversation just published an article communicating the results of our research on the impact of AI on scientific work. #work#ai#science https://t.co/aJewdbvC9A with @RJMeckin@AndyBalmer@philipshapira
In case you missed it, here’s my #sociology conversation with #ChatGPT https://t.co/CMQhzwdG79
I talk to ChatGPT about #AIethics, affect & reflexivity. It’s a playful exploration of why ChatGPT talks to us in the way it does.
How can generative language models be used for text mining in science & innovation policy analysis? We explore this question, reflecting on the results, using the case of public value expressions in AI patent documents, see this arXiv preprint https://t.co/lKeWT9QKD9
"Your first draft isn’t an unoriginal idea expressed clearly; it’s an original idea expressed poorly, and it is accompanied by your amorphous dissatisfaction (...) and that’s one of the things lacking when you start with text generated by an A.I" https://t.co/xT9xei5TjT
@timnitGebru@chrmanning “AI medical advisors for people who can’t afford care”: @sama suggests that care, provided you’re able to pay for it, is best delivered by humans; and confesses that those relying on AI will, as a matter of fact, NOT receive care, but some kind of AI advice. Amazing.
What and How can we learn from #NonhumanAnimals in the #MedicalHumanities? 📢The website for our recently launched network (NAMHN) funded by @wellcometrust@NNMHRmed is now live!👀Visit us at https://t.co/5Lwqzz9Ydk to know how to get involved 🐸
@kieronflanagan Saw this earlier this week! Not surprised… I haven’t yet seen a study that tries to understand how machine learning creates low-skilled jobs. The focus on skills seems to be biased towards high-skilled workers (or how low-skilled workers get replaced by robots), don’t you think?
Really pleased that the paper I wrote ‘Simmel & Shakespeare on lying and love’ with @michaelwdurrant has been nominated for @CulSoc Sage Prize for Innovation and Excellence! https://t.co/PZzDsOkuoY. Hurrah 🤥😍 @UoMSchools@uomhums@OfficialUoM@UoMPolicy@methodsMcr@uomsoss
Lab stuff, robots and cleaning up spills. What more could you want? One of my favourite times in the lab was discussing with the science bods the images of Red Dwarf’s Holly they had in the lab, and what that taught us about automation. @barb_rib@RJMeckin
Really pleased to see our @SciAsCulture paper with @do_paulo and
@leofn3 from @labhdufba published: “Demarcating Patriotic Science on Digital Platforms: #COVID19, #Chloroquine and the Institutionalisation of Ignorance in Brazil”. Check it out: https://t.co/oEdikRfGFV
How can Science, Technology & Innovation Studies (STIS) contribute towards our understanding of the current #covid#pandemic and future possibilities? We are hosting a workshop on 18 Jun to explore these questions, with some great speakers #STS#scipolicy https://t.co/VdemxDg2qP
@heravalue I am very sorry for your loss Leanne. This is devastating news. I will always remember Paul as a very kind and exceptionally bright colleague. He will be missed. My thoughts are with you and your family.
