I am expanding my data team at @lighthousereports.com. We are considering candidates located anywhere in the world. The position is remote. If you are a data journalist who is passionate about global investigative journalism, check it out: jobs.workable.com/view/ru2gQrx...

I’ve spent a lot of time investigating shitty AI cynically used to pursue vulnerable people in welfare systems. When I talk about this work, I invariably get asked: is it possible to make these systems fair?

Our investigation epitomizes the storytelling possibilities when passionate journalists from resource-strapped newsrooms and regional data geeks join forces. We hope the story leads an overhaul of NGP but also sparks wider scrutiny of sustainable forestry programs across the region and the world.

Part 3 of the @lhreports.bsky.social investigation in collaboration with @elpais.com @unbiasthenews.bsky.social and @financialtimes.com , now with partners from @france3fr.bsky.social and @publico.es is out!

Amazing work by @gabrielgeiger.bsky.social on the latest @lhreports.bsky.social suspicion machines investigation. This is a crazy tale of AI ethics washing: The welfare agency had been told that it's tool was crappy. It responded by making up a ludicrous fairness definition.
