Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. @iajunwa.bsky.social · 25/03/2025Very interesting! Important to note also the exploitative labor practices that go along with AI content moderation practices which are exported abroad: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.... 1101

Reposted by Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D.Dr Abeba Birhane @abeba.blacksky.app · 27/02/2025"AI technology appears to outperform humans. But a closer look reveals that these games are rigged. The competitions do not actually ask machines to perform human tasks; it’s more accurate to say that they ask humans to behave in machine-like ways as they perform lifeless simulacra of human tasks." 224077
Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. @iajunwa.bsky.social · 13/02/2025I was listening on my drive this morning! So many golden nuggets of truth and wisdom!

Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. @iajunwa.bsky.social · 05/02/2025With truly great help from you! Although I have to add that it's more of a colloquium and not a full-blown conference yet. Hopefully with more funding, we can make it a conference in the future! 040
Reposted by Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D.Emory Law Journal @emorylawjournal.bsky.social · 05/02/2025Twas the afternoon before the Thrower Symposium and all through the law school many creatures were scurrying to finalize preparations... As we settled in for a short winter nap (it'll be 70F in Atlanta today), we excitedly thought of "The Regulation of Digital Platforms and Addictive Technologies" 282
Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. @iajunwa.bsky.social · 21/01/2025Happy MLK Day! Spent the day in service and community with others and it felt great. "Let us not be weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all..." 082
Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. @iajunwa.bsky.social · 10/01/2025Thursday was a recognized day of mourning @Emorylaw for President Carter who had a longstanding relationship with the law school including receiving an honorary degree. May he rest in perfect peace. 🙏 060
Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. @iajunwa.bsky.social · 05/01/2025This, too, is a good reason to adopt "A.i." 020
Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. @iajunwa.bsky.social · 05/01/2025I recently saw someone write "A.i" and I want to deploy all scholars to adopt this stylization of the abbreviation for "artificial intelligence."

Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. @iajunwa.bsky.social · 03/01/2025Highly incisive: "More importantly, privacy essentialism often leads to law and policy that ignores important privacy problems and neglects serious privacy harms because they do not readily fit within the narrow boundaries of a particular conception of privacy." 011
Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. @iajunwa.bsky.social · 03/01/2025I suspected this, as a non-expert on net neutrality. Sad to have it confirmed by the brilliant @genevievelakier.bsky.social ! 011

Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. @iajunwa.bsky.social · 16/12/2024I enjoyed speaking with @luizajarovsky.bsky.social and a live audience about how business managers are deploying AI in the workplace and its effect on workers. Watch the video recording of our conversation below! 161
Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. @iajunwa.bsky.social · 13/12/2024This entire thread by @jamellebouie.net is a perfect vindication of admin law scholars. 1112
Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. @iajunwa.bsky.social · 13/12/2024This ruling is wild: "Congress did not pass the Exchange Act for the purpose of maximizing shareholder wealth. It passed the Act to protect investors from fraud, manipulation, speculation, and anticompetitive exchange behavior. Firm performance has little to do with those objectives." Really?! 🤨 041
Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. @iajunwa.bsky.social · 12/12/2024I think this comes dangerous close to nullifying the assumed priors necessary for the CDA Section 230 shield against liability for platforms...cc @daniellecitron.bsky.social 151
Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. @iajunwa.bsky.social · 12/12/2024This isn't restricted to Emory sadly. I encountered this at other doctor offices. In the past, I found that if you push, they will provide you with a clipboard with the paper documents...BUT you still have to sign on the pad. SIGH. 020

Also, they all have to drink from the same gold/brass wine cups...#loveisblind 071
Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. @iajunwa.bsky.social · 12/12/2024The magic date is Feb 29th. 010
Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. @iajunwa.bsky.social · 12/12/2024YES! And the restaurant should have little carts that whip about adding to the anticipation, bamboo basket steamers, and brusque yet efficient waiters. 110
Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. @iajunwa.bsky.social · 12/12/2024Yes! I'm still trying to figure out his end goal tho...he doesn't seem to be a transhumanist acolyte? 110
Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. @iajunwa.bsky.social · 12/12/2024Lovely! The pink tinge on the under bill is especially striking. 010
Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. @iajunwa.bsky.social · 12/12/2024You also have to ask for a flight of dipping sauces. 010

Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. @iajunwa.bsky.social · 10/12/2024This is outstanding news!! I'm excited to see what Elizabeth's capable leadership brings for the Roosevelt Institute! 010
Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. @iajunwa.bsky.social · 09/12/2024Thanks for posting! We do indeed have a great wealth of AI experts at Emory Law. 010
Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. @iajunwa.bsky.social · 09/12/2024Audits take long when the systems are not *designed* to support them. In several papers, I note the issue of ex post vs. ex ante regulations. Ex ante regulations include "fairness by design" features (built in to allow for easy audits for example. See, www.law.georgetown.edu/georgetown-l... 000
Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. @iajunwa.bsky.social · 09/12/2024We can try. Pre-clearance audits don't try to keep up at all since it's a one and done. But seriously, the main check/regulation will have to be design based but with the expectation that even the design requirements will be ever-evolving as the tech progresses. 010
Prof. Ifeoma Ajunwa, J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. @iajunwa.bsky.social · 09/12/2024I agree! That's why my paper argues for auditing design features. 010
