I can't believe @healthgovau is still saying "The dataset does not contain the personal information of patients."
We have shown many of the patients' records can be easily and confidently identified from a few points of medical or childbirth info.

Hey folks,
We've decided to cancel our March meetup with @IxDAMelbourne.
Please look after yourselves and each other xx

[IxDA Melbourne @IxDAMelbourne]

We've decided to cancel our next meetup event to ensure the safety of all attendees, speakers, organisers and our venue partners. Thanks for your understanding, and we will let you know about our next event, which we'll schedule when it's safe to do so. ✌️

Oh wow 🤩 what a lovely morning surprise to see Ethics Litmus Tests get a mention in the (always excellent) Dense Discovery newsletter 💌

@yolandasamy For sure! When the venue has the capability and speakers permit we always try to record or stream :)

[Responsible AI Australia @responsible_ai]

For our Nov Meetup we'll be doing something a little different...
We'll be discussing AI Ethics Fails in an attempt to understand where we've gone wrong in the past and how to minimize these issues in the future.

@yolandasamy We'll be 'Chatham House Rules'-ing it for this meetup, so unfortunately no live stream.

"Uber’s system [self-driving car] was not equipped to identify or deal with pedestrians walking outside of a crosswalk."

A driver who said they only look for pedestrians at crosswalks would surely be classed incompetent, and lose their licence, right?

This is a wonderful paper that should be read by every ML researcher concerned with explainability. I dont know how it escape my attention. I would shorten it more, skip the "according to so and so.." and present ML folks with a computer-minded taxonomy of explanation #Bookofwhy

[Laura Summers @summerscope]

Looking forward to catching up with @plasmov & Dan Morganti in studio for @byteintoit tonight. Particularly excited to talk to NSA whistleblower @Thomas_Drake1 about cybercon, censorship, and the state of free speech in Australia.
