I love the idea of history informing AI audits – it's something @sandhaus.bsky.social @azjacobs.bsky.social @emoss.bsky.social @monasloane.bsky.social drew on for our work on motion capture & was so important for surfacing the assumptions encoded in modern-day tech! 🔗: dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/...

Thrilled that our NASEM report on "Human and Organizational Factors in AI Risk Management" is out now! Thank you to our committee and participants and to the wonderful Ben Shneiderman for co-chairing with me! More here: nap.nationalacademies.org/catalog/2904...

#Recruiting is hotbed for #AI. But some forms of AI-driven automation clash with professional practices, increasing inefficiencies and the potential for new forms of bias. A lesson for AI and the 'future of #work'. My thoughts in @acm.org Communications: cacm.acm.org/opinion/bool...

Excellent reporting by Simar Bajaj on #AI in the operating theater. This is exactly the kind of nuanced reporting we need to figure out where and how AI can have positive impact. Note the idea that we "black boxed" the OR, surgeries used to be quasi-public. www.technologyreview.com/2024/06/07/1...

This is happening TODAY! Join us! ipk.nyu.edu/events/co-op...

🚀 What is hallucination in AI systems? @annaseogyeongchoi.bsky.social and I recently explored this topic in depth, and our article has just been published in The Conversation! 🎉 theconversation.com/what-are-ai-...

This article was inspired by our paper “Careless Whisper: hallucinations: Speech-to-Text Hallucination Harms” dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/... led by @allisonkoe.bsky.social together with @monasloane.bsky.social and Hilke Schellmann!

✨🎙️ PUBLICATION ALERT ✨🎙️ Out with Nature Machine Intelligence today @natmachintell.bsky.social: "Materiality and Risk in the Age of pervasive #AI #Sensors", with the great Susan Kennedy, VJ Reddi, Brian Plancher, Pete Warden, Emanuel Moss & Matthew Stewart. Read the paper here: tinyurl.com/3skyvep7

The week is off to a good start when your longtime undergraduate mentee and lab member lets you know that they got into #Harvard @harvard.edu for their grad work. Proud #professor moment! 🥹 🎊

Social scientists have been saying this: context matters, always. And as #AI becomes infrastructural to social life, this will become increasingly obvious to technologists, too. Perhaps we could listen to "non-technical" knowledges earlier. www.technologyreview.com/2025/03/11/1...

✨ Humbled and excited to host Jasemine E. McNealy and Danielle Keats Citron @daniellecitron.bsky.social for Co-Opting #AI: #Privacy this month! Join us on 3/26, 4pm ET, free sign-up here: ipk.nyu.edu/events/co-op...

"Menuhin’s intuition finally returned to him when he accepted the limits of his own reason." A wonderful article saying, w/o saying it, that there are limits to #AI automation, because there are limits to the usefulness of "reason". aeon.co/essays/for-a... See also @allisonpugh.bsky.social's work.

#Leadership means taking risks seriously so that #innovation can be effective for all. That is particularly true for AI #sensors. Susan Kennedy, Emanuel Moss, Brian Plancher, Vijay Reddi, Pete Warden and I made that clear in our comment on the US #AI Action Plan: www.linkedin.com/posts/mona-s...

As well-funded tech giants bet on AI's disruptive potential and future dominance, the need to create a more level playing field becomes increasingly urgent. Read more from @monasloane.bsky.social and Ekkehard Ernst on the equitable distribution of AI's benefits:

Thrilled that our piece on #AI and #fair distribution is out today!

Very much looking forward to keynoting at the "Artificial Societies: Confronting Social Engineering after the Techlash" Symposium this Friday, alongside the incredible @noortjem.bsky.social! More information here: warwick.ac.uk/fac/cross_fa...
