#pyconau @vivekkatial.bsky.social A case study on building our first LLM feature – how to balance speed + quality http://youtu.be/N7vV23muhMY

Using research and feedback to build safe and ethical AI. @lpeate.bsky.social and @vivekkatial.bsky.social #yowtls25

@honeycomb.io needed to track and report the human impact of on-call alerts. Together, we co-designed a solution that cut their reporting time by 90% and provided transparent reporting on the impact of alerts. Read here: www.multitudes.com/success-stor...

Proud to share our original research, now available on arXiv! Co-authors, @uvic.ca PhD candidate Alessandra M Paz Milani, @margaretstorey.bsky.social, @vivekkatial.bsky.social, and @lpeate.bsky.social explore how engineering teams take action on data in retros. Read more👇 arxiv.org/abs/2502.03570

OpenAI has to be the most insufferable company in the world. They can steal from the whole world & guzzle all resources. But no one can give them a taste of their own medicine even a little bit. How long till they use this to say give us even more resources & this is why we can't release anything.

We're hosting an important discussion on AI's gender bias challenges! Join @jrosenbaum.com.au for the Multitudes #TechLeaderChat exploring how AI systems oversimplify & misinterpret gender identity. I watched one of her talks at PyCon AU and it was ️‍🔥 ️‍🔥 www.meetup.com/tech-leader-...

In 2018 this study from Stanford showed that while 75% of nonprofits collect data, only 6% use it effectively (ssir.org/articles/ent...)

Dear computer vision researchers, students & practitioners🔇🔇🔇 Remi Denton & I have written what I consider to be a comprehensive paper on the harms of computer vision systems reported to date & how people have proposed addressing them, from different angles. PDF: cdn.sanity.io/files/wc2kmx...

Our community for Tech Leader Chats has hit 800 members! 🎉 We’re thrilled to hit this milestone, as our group continues to grow and be a place where engineering, product, and data leaders come to learn, grow, and connect.

The Marsden Fund was set up to support pure research. Diverting half of it to fund applied research undermines New Zealand’s potential to generate ideas that underpin commercial success.

@mmitchell.bsky.social if you're trying to report on intersectional accuracy without access to self-reported AND consented sensitive variables - any practices you recommend for still meaningfully reporting on potential intersectional biases? "perceived" measures would just reinforce existing biases

@allenholub.bsky.social “10X programmers actually slow down software delivery” — eventually leading to a steady state where all knowledge is concentrated in one person and they become a key person risk and bottleneck #yow24

We did a cool collab with Just Reinvest NSW. A shiny dashboard that maps Indigenous incarceration rates and justice spending across NSW communities. Check it out here: www.gooddatainstitute.com/post/empower...

👋 excited to join Bluesky! Keen to see chats on data / ML for social impact. Here’s hoping this platform doesn’t turn into X/Twitter 🤣
