If you ever wonder why Disability Pride is so important, it's because there are people who see my body & my life as their worst-case scenario. And it always amazes me just how comfortable people can be in telling me so. 2/3

You may be wondering: why are some of the very people who develop and deploy artificial intelligence sounding the alarm about it's existential threat? Consider two reasons--

The who's who of AI influencers: "AI Scientists" and "Notable Figures". Where do the engineers who build these systems go? 🤔

I replicated this (my screenshot below). Really great example of gender bias, for those of you who need a canonical example to make the point.

Okay, @60Minutes is saying that Google's Bard model "spoke in a foreign language it was never trained to know." I looked into what this can mean, and it appears to be a lie. Here's the evidence, curious what others found. 🧵

My daughter, who's had a degree in computer science for 25 years, posted this about ChatGPT on Facebook. It's the best description I've seen.

Italy banned ChatGPT b/c it is unclear what OpenAI does with all the data it collects - that you enter! No one knows. The EU regulator believes you should have the right to know what happens to your data & the right to later remove it, if you want to. You cannot, with ChatGPT.

David Galbraith@daveg

France and Germany now looking to join Italy in banning ChatGPT rather than focusing on how to build their own AI industry. This is what terminal cultural decline looks like. Not with a bang but a bureaucracy.

@WhatTheADHD I don't have an answer for this really... I managed to do Monday morning yoga for about a month once and it was amazing while it lasted. But mostly wondering... Have you done a thread like this about bedtime routines too?

What's something you do every morning before starting a work day? Why do you do it? I'm trying to put a categorized list together for a build-your-own morning routine guide.

Back of my Polling Card for local elections. For 1st time, photo ID is required. Card gives many options for elderly or those with disability. None, NONE, for younger or student voters. The policy is simply biased against younger voters, designed to suppress their vote.

I didn't sign "the letter". Current AI poses lots of risks, but describing these systems as "ever more powerful digital minds" that no one can control is likely to make the problem even worse. What's needed: more transparency and better public discourse.

@sama PSA: the current version of chatGPT is literally making up non-existent clinical trials and research studies just to please you ... twitter.com/insideNiMA/sta…

Just had a very sad first* encounter with ChatGPT ... While researching novel treatments for Syringomyelia I realized ChatGPT is literally making up non-existent super promising but realistic sounding research studies and clinical trials!!! None of it was real </3 all made up

When you use autistic children, and the need for 'accommodations', to argue against trans-inclusive policies or learning about anti-racism, you are exposing the fact that you believe that autistic children are cis and white by default. And you're fucking wrong.

Pro tip when writing image descriptions for folks: You're not writing a professional newspaper caption of a stock photo. Just let blind and low vision users know what they might wanna see! For example:
