🚨GENERATIVE AI & HUMAN RIGHTS: the UN published the paper "Taxonomy of Human Rights Risks Connected to Generative AI," and it's a must-read for everyone in AI. Here's why:

➡️The taxonomy supplements the UN B-Tech Project’s foundational paper on generative AI and examines how generative AI may negatively impact human rights (providing real-world examples for each right).

➡️These are the rights covered:
➵ Freedom from Physical and Psychological Harm
➵ Right to Equality Before the Law and to Protection against Discrimination
➵ Right to Privacy
➵ Right to Own Property
➵ Freedom of Thought, Religion, Conscience and Opinion
➵ Freedom of Expression and Access to Information
➵ Right to Take Part in Public Affairs
➵ Right to Work and to Gain a Living
➵ Rights of the Child
➵ Rights to Culture, Art and Science

➡️For each of these rights, the report covers:
➵ a summary of why the right is at risk from the development or use of generative AI;
➵ a selected list of key international human rights law articles pertaining to the right;
➵ a list of examples in which generative AI may threaten the right.

➡️This is an extremely important paper to anyone concerned with AI's real-world risks and harms. Read the full document below.

Europe has an #AI Act.

More than 2,5 years after the initial proposal, political agreement has been reached. It will still take time before the text is formally finalised & hence before we'll see the (important) nitty gritty, but here is a first overview:https://t.co/JXptGFBVAJ

There's been lots of talk recently about establishing a new global AI body. I'm sceptical. In this article, I outline five geopolitical and institutional reasons for my scepticism and propose an alternative path: strengthening coordination @oiioxford

🎓Stanford CS229: Machine Learning (Spring 2022)

Really cool to see a new iteration of this course. It's a classic ML course from Stanford that has helped tons of students get started with machine learning.

Covers foundational topics such as logistic regression, Naive Bayes, kernels, neural networks, bias-variance, regularization, k-means, expectation maximization, and more.

Hoy, hace 3 años, desarrollé esta idea que poco a poco fue tomando forma. Ahora es un referente no solo nacional sino mundial. Más de 760 autoras mapeadas (y las que faltan), más de 95 mil personas de distintos países y continentes han visitado este mapa.
Mil gracias por su apoyo

I am very proud of this work—mapping the NLP research landscape to social impact areas (eg health, education, climate).

Our hope is to inspire more NLP researchers to work on under-addressed social areas.
