The Tech Justice Lab invites you to attend a workshop and talk by Dr. Alex Hanna. Dr. Hanna is the Director of Research at the Distributed AI Research Institute, a former AI ethics expert for Google, and a Purdue Aluma. n the workshop and talk, we'll get to engage with Dr. Hanna about her new book, The AI Con (coauthored with Dr. Emily M. Bender), which offers a sharp, witty, and wide-ranging take-down of AI hype across its many forms. Together, we can expose AI hype for what it is: a mask for Big Tech’s drive for profit, with little concern for who it affects.

Quote from a newsletter I receive: "The opposite of the fight, flight, and freeze reaction process is communicate, connect, and create." I have no idea if it's backed by research, but I need @christenrexing.bsky.social to use her extrovert magic to force me into more connections!

5/5 There are ways to have online CSAM removed! Most people, like me until yesterday, think it's impossible to get content removed. It's not a 100% guarantee, but websites are legally required to remove CSAM after being notified. NCMEC (www.missingkids.org/gethelpnow/c...) can help!

4/5 Don't judge them! You may think that they were naïve or stupid to share explicit materials, but they probably already feel REALLY bad about it. Your response can make a huge difference. Don't know what you say? Use these strategies: www.jmir.org/2024/1/e42049/

3/5 Make sure your kids know that they can talk to you about difficult situations. If your kids are afraid to talk to you when they make mistakes, they're going to hide things from you, which will just make the situation worse.

2/5 Online exploitation can happen to anyone. Emerging technology means that people can create convincing fake explicit materials. So, even if your kid would never share nudes, they could still be targeted.

1/5 I spent yesterday working on an online CSAM prevention program with Childhelp Inc and Meta (look for it to launch in February!). Kids are our main audience, but we also talked about what adults need to know. Our preliminary thoughts are below:

How did it feel? I'm always so proud of myself on days that I limit my email time to its designated blocks!

When I'm super disciplined about my schedule, I can make it work. I set three weekly goals with three related daily goals, then hold time on my calendar for those tasks. As part of that system, I hold at least 30 minutes in the morning and afternoon to answer emails.

I've spent most of the day thinking about how AI will continue to influence how we do high-quality, ethical research. It's one of the first AI-focused workshops I've attended where the speakers actually understand AI! A recording will be available: research.msu.edu/recr-event/p...
