Flags the challenge of creating socially responsible Algorithms @baxterkb: Algos & AI rely on the data they're ‘fed’. If the data is inaccurate, incomplete, unrepresentative, regardless of how “good” the AI, outcomes can perpetuate & expand inequities #RightsTechAu twitter.com/baxterkb/statu…

Yesterday's #RightsTechAu conference provided a tasting plate of the challenges of our data-rich digital futures. Today at @AusHumanRights workshops we will begin a deep dive into ways we can raise ethical AI. Excited to be part of these important conversations.

Argh. As if to illustrate the point that our digital, data worlds rely on energy, I'm about to run our of power on my laptop. So I shall lose my twitter voice because I didn't bring my power source :-) to #RightsTechAu twitter.com/uts_mdsi/statu…

Thanks @feraldata at #RightsTechAu for bringing up the challenge of dependencies and desires for data-rich, energy-hungry systems and implications for our future. There is a growing community exploring sustainable AI twitter.com/KirstyKitto/st…

yes. Great way forward. In #utsmdsi we ensure students experience what it's like to be represented in data & outcomes of machine-informed analysis. Remaining alert to ways data represents human experience sensitises coders & analysts to the power of their judgments #RightsTechAU twitter.com/LexisNexisAUS/…

@solomonbrett: putting coders in a room with the people the code will ultimately impact can increase the human rights by design approach #rightsTechAU

Panel 2 #RightsTechAu sees a conversation about innovation now looking at inequities of the digital divide. If our future is digital & data informed (a question in itself) and we wish to empower citizens with choice, we need to better educate people to truly empower them

what I'm hearing in this second #RightsTechAU panel is that in a civil society we should be putting effort into building informed, data literate citizens -- informed "data publics". Citizens, rather than consumers

Building on @baxterkb observation in her earlier #RightsTechAu talk -- imagine what would happen if all the talent currently focussed on AI innovation that feeds consumerism were focussed on critical issues like child protection and domestic family violence. twitter.com/AusHumanRights…

I think algorithy will become a new favourite of mine. Let's use it in a sentence: "On reflection, the autonomous car's latest decision seemed particularly algorithy" Lite relief in the midst of serious talk about innovating in the interest of human value at #RightsTechAu twitter.com/karisyd/status…
Kai Riemer@karisyd

My two favourite word creations from the real-time #AI speech transcription system on the #rightstechau main screen so far 1) enkrimtion and 2) algorithy

excellent point raised by @TobyWalsh #RightsTechAu about need for more ethical review of tech practices. Worth remembering as Hannah Wallach flags in her wonderful Medium article: big data is really granular social data @hannawallach/big-data-machine-learning-and-the-social-sciences-927a8e20460d" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@hannawallach/…

Perhaps the lesson from this morning's #RightsTechAu panel is that we humans should think twice about outsourcing all our decisions to machines. Let's become better partners with AI options. Let's make sure humans are learning as our machines our learning so we can "build better"

bias isn't always visible. Some of most biased judgments can be made when we think we're not being biased. Multiple voices (& machine/human partnerships?) would however have to be be better than a single voice/perspective. It's why we triangulate in social science. #RightsTechAu twitter.com/kylielewis/sta…

Ultimately technology is just a tool. Humans set the course. Humans create the biases that they then pass on to their technological creations. #RightsTechAu
