What do AI models model anyway? Check out this guest blog from Sarah Immel from the Designing Responsible NLP CDT! Image courtesy of @betterimagesofai.bsky.social www.our-ai-collective.info/news-and-blo...
A red-toned illustration shows a man's head surrounded by swirling AI icons, with small, mischievous witch-like figures flying around him. The man's expression appears disoriented and fatigued, symbolizing the mental overload caused by the overwhelming flood of AI tools and news. The witches represent the chaotic, cackling nature of rapid AI developments, adding to the sense of dizziness and confusion.

A bit late to give a shout out on here but check out this brilliant blog from @markwong.bsky.social about how we need to address AI and its role in racism. Given the recent horrific scenes across the UK of racist attacks and rhetoric, it's a timely post! www.our-ai-collective.info/news-and-blo...

Why we need to talk about AI and racism, now — Our AI Collective
Blog post from Dr Mark Wong. People are being regularly and increasingly other-ed, excluded, and discriminated against by AI because of their skin colour and race. This should not be normal.

Growing Up Online: What the government consultation got wrong — Our AI Collective — Our AI Collective
A response to the government's "Growing up Online" consultation. It is fundamentally flawed because it exaggerates the role of digital platforms in children's lives by asking the wrong questions.
