@AlexCampolo @ASchjoett @DLuitse I'm excited to see how the work has evolved since I last saw you present it in Madrid!

@bumatic and me will discuss how frameworks infrastructure conversational AI and how large language models such as #ChatGPT (and other resources) are rendered applicable for rather mundane chatbots for, f.e., pizza orders (the hello world! of chatbots)

Transparenz. Das ist das, was unsere wirtschaftsstiftungsfinanzierten Kaviar-Aktivist*innen von staatlich angewendeten #KI Systemen abverlangen. Transparenz.bei.asymmetrischen.Machtverhältnissen wirkt.abschreckend. Transparenz setzt Handlungsmöglichkeit des Empfängers voraus

A politician from the UK does a brilliant job grilling an Amazon exec about dystopian algorithms surveilling workers.

Every single member of Congress in the US needs to watch this and take notes.

German Cancel Culture: Du bringst pointierte Texte, die dem deutschen Anti-Dekolonialisierungs- und Anti-Anti-Anti-Anti-Anti-Faschismus-Konsens etwas entgegensetzen - und wirst dann degradiert, weil du den Auftritt eines faschistoiden Autokraten kritisierst @hahauenstein
