I agree with @EvanSelinger & @BrettFrischmann's questions about ChatGPT's moral function. I can't help but mention my recent Opinion piece on society's conflict with ChatGPT's aesthetic & professional role. Will it always be slightly shameful to adopt it? frontiersin.org/articles/10.…

Thank you @TrentUDurham and @TrentUTeaching for hosting me today for this event! At the Crossroads of Artificial Intelligence: Considering the Implications of AI for Teaching and Learning, your questions and comments were excellent. trentu.ca/teaching/workshop/…

OpenAI "argued for carve-outs that would allow certain uses of generative AI in #education & employment, sectors that the first draft of the Act suggested should be considered blanket “high risk”" @OpenAI asks E.U. to Water Down AI Regulation @billyperrigo time.com/6288245/openai-eu-l…

We worked with @DecimalUOIT researchers @OT_FSSH to collect a public dataset for the book in fabricofdigitallife.com Here is one collection on Agency, Affordances, and Enculturation of Augmentation Technologies fabricofdigitallife.com/Brow…

Excited to see my new book is out with @routledgebooks! Augmentation Technologies & Artificial Intelligence in Technical Communication @AHDuin & @isabel_pedersen "we are in the midst of an augmentation technology craze fueled partly by a blind trust in AI" routledge.com/9781032263755

“The problem here seems to be that we thought that creativity, per se, was the last bastion, the line in the sand, that would stop machines from replacing someone's job," said Mike Seymour, co-founder of Motus Lab U if Sydney Reuters reuters.com/technology/plagi…

“Too early to tally the enabled & the endangered, or to gauge the overall impact on labor demand & productivity. But it seems clear that artificial intelligence will impinge on work in different ways than previous waves of technology” ⁦@lydiadepillis⁩ nytimes.com/2023/03/28/busin…

So true @vdignum "Collaboration rather than competition lies at the core of successful & meaningful AI research beyond disciplines. This stands in stark contrast with current systems of research assessments that valorise, prioritise and reward competition & individual excellence"

GPT-2, 4 years before #ChatGPT had a caveat: “Due to our concerns about malicious applications of the technology, we are not releasing the trained model. As an experiment in responsible disclosure, we are instead releasing a much smaller model for researchers to experiment with”
