A paper published today in @nature introduces #MachineBehavior: the interdisciplinary study of #AI systems as a new class of actors with unique behavioral patterns and ecology. @scalablecoop expands on framing an emerging field. https://t.co/YxwFMCVEoN

"#AI in its current manifestations is parasitic on human #intelligence. It quite indiscriminately gorges on whatever has been produced by human creators & extracts the patterns to be found there—including some of our most pernicious habits." @danieldennett

As AI technology sees wider deployment, are the social sciences and AI research keeping pace? We explore this question in a new perspective published in @NatMachIntell (featured on the cover!) https://t.co/gsV393xn0u @iyadrahwan @dashunwang @scalablecoop @medialab @KelloggSchool

How does AI bias actually happen? And why is it so hard to fix? Answering my own unanswered questions in my latest for @techreview https://t.co/fmmk4UEOEE

New York will allow life insurers to use social media data to set rates, but here's the catch: Insurers will have to show these practices are "free of bias against racial minorities and other groups protected by law"
Let's see how this unfolds...

AI ethics pro @BaxterKB shares her best practices for building safe and ethical AI with @WSJ: Don’t reinvent the wheel. Think about how ethical can be integrated into existing processes. Don’t make ethics punitive. Pay close attention to training data. https://t.co/i3MzROlHqy

Just in time for @fatconference, a word from @RedTailAI's @lowbrowkate, six months into diving into research and reporting on #AIEthics. https://t.co/4omy8NbtH9 mentions: @rcalo @Rob_Hart17 @medialab @Nick_Obradovich @wpwrs @mcebrianster @iyadrahwan #ACMFAT2019 @ACM_president

In @NewYorker, @caro_ohlivia talks to @iyadrahwan about @scalablecoop's Moral Machine study, and wanders through the ethical wilderness of human values and biases. https://t.co/b6N0xvOsnN

It amazes me when people think numbers & math are somehow impervious to inaccuracy, bias, manipulation. Algorithmic bias is very real & I talk to AI researchers *weekly* about their efforts to solve this problem. Here's also my story about this topic. https://t.co/ud6X5B4tQc
