Maybe “move fast, break stuff” is a terrible way to actually accomplish anything.

devastated to learn that the process of trial & error does in fact include error

And as background for this, some of the findings from @brianckeegan.com's and my NSF funded work on Twitter-Mastodon migration with @mattnicholson.bsky.social @blakeley.bsky.social & @jojuliz.bsky.social are described here: medium.com/cuinfoscienc...

My collaborators (@brianckeegan.com @mattnicholson.bsky.social @blakeley.bsky.social @jojuliz.bsky.social) & I as part of a broader project replicated the Twitter ethics survey on Mastodon and found that over there this kind of opt-in consent for research was desirable (e.g. at the instance level).

Last week I gave a talk titled "When Data Is People: Ethics, Privacy and Ownership in Research & AI Uses of Public Data" that tied together this research ethics work with generative AI training data and also copyright. Here's one of the final slides.

Questions to ask when collecting data

What are the norms and expectations of the people represented by this data?
How could individuals and/or communities be harmed by this use and/or the dissemination of the data?
Who benefits from the use?
Are the people benefiting the same ones who face potential harms?
What could you do to mitigate the potential for harm and/or increase the likelihood of benefits?
Can you answer these questions well enough to suggest that you are the right person to conduct this research or do this work?

allowing AI usage in your classrooms is in fact a climate issue.
