this article is really interesting!

assessing learning in humans is always highly contested. so if ML were actually democratized, and new tools allowed diverse groups of people to design their own ML models and assess what those models learned, what would they find? https://t.co/7c9IGToz1p pic.twitter.com/X4Mc2rlYDA

awesome, thanks for sharing! :)

there's cool related work here too if you haven't seen https://t.co/b7ms3CCYhm i've been playing with this on some K12 AI experiments (eg. https://t.co/HH519VFWJE), would be amazing to see this everywhere like https://t.co/ch8GHNa8os or TFHub! pic.twitter.com/dA86H2c0oR

yes, challenges with consent, ethics & legal implications are far more important. suspicion of child abuse can lead to children being removed from their homes and taken from their families.

i wonder how we as AI educators can help young people engage with those dimensions?

— Kevin Robinson (@krob) April 11, 2019

for folks doing work in #CSforAll or #AIEthics, let's start engaging young people on this now. here's some real CS and AI systems might be impacting your K12 students now, with enormous capacity for harm.

amazing work, thanks for sharing! :) do you know of anyone doing these kinds of interviews with the people impacted by ML systems, in any domain?

in tech i know of https://t.co/mUaA5l7s44 from @schock and https://t.co/MKdDUQJmsN is amazing work, but after ML has done harm...

thanks for sharing!

it's funny how "abstraction" and "encapsulation" and "isolation" as key methods of systems engineering, are also key methods of maintaining relational distance... reminds me of the alternative "bricolage" style of computing in: https://t.co/7lu6hxvwQs pic.twitter.com/JTgPTTg30H

it's awesome to see work from ML research groups who embrace that fairness, interpretability and ethics requires collaborating with the real humans impacted by what they buildhttps://t.co/BQMLDk6juc pic.twitter.com/RiI5Jc4XJf
