@hannah_redler Glad you liked it - I thought it was one of the better discussions I'd heard recently on the topic. Exploring what bias means with AI was well done and as you say, the possibly recursive challenges in overseeing AI pose both challenges and questions.

@hannah_redler Also an interesting recent podcast on ethics and AI with Peter Railton on Philosophy Bites https://t.co/zirFRs1Rw6

Co-founder @davesolo for @aperturemag "In order to help expand the audience of the photobook, criticism must empower a wider community to pick up a book, see and understand what the makers were trying to do, decide whether they agree with the choices" https://t.co/iqnkJYqHUp
