Could we govern data consent through citizen assemblies? What would that look like? We design the concept of a "consent assembly" in our new #CHI2026 paper with @linkyi.bsky.social, Paul Goelz, @robin.berjon.com 🧵 #AIGovernance #DataGovernance #AIPolicy #GDPR #AIAct #FAccT2026 #DigitalOmnibus

Your #FAccT2025 General Chairs @sciorestis.bsky.social, @metaxa.net, and I, reporting from the venue. We're looking forward to welcoming you to the Athens Conservatoire or online!

Hi all! Im creating a course dedicated to research ethics. Topics include history of research ethics; famous case studies in unethical research (e.g., Stanford prison experiment, Tuskeegee syphyllis experiment, etc.), informed consent, etc. If anyone has readings / recs / advice, let me know!

The mods of r/ChangeMyView shared the sub was the subject of a study to test the persuasiveness of LLMs & that they didn't consent. There’s a lot that went wrong, so here’s a 🧵 unpacking it, along with some ideas for how to do research with online communities ethically. tinyurl.com/59tpt988

Calling our international communities! We know not everyone can travel in person to #FAccT2025 and there might be heightened travel risks this year. If you're organizing a local meetup, we'd love to know and help you publicize. Contact our publicity chairs here: facctconference.org/2025/committ...

How can we *responsibly* train GenAI on creative work? This is what we investigate in our upcoming #CHI2025 paper! Preprint: arxiv.org/abs/2501.11457 Work in collaboration with Amruta Mahuli, Six Silberman, @rdbinns.bsky.social, Jun Zhao and @asiabiega.bsky.social (1/4)

Every major UK newspaper - left, right, broadsheet, tabloid - is running a front page campaign against copyright carveouts for AI training. I can't remember the last time any political cause had such broad support, let alone one so anti-big tech and so economically consequential.
