So many left intellectuals from the USA and Europe act as if indigenous genocide and land theft were processes in the distant past, rather than seeing them as ongoing fundamental dynamics of global capitalism

"#Meta [is] developing a wristband that would read your brainwaves and #Apple [is] patenting a future version of AirPods that would scan your brain activity through your ears". I want out. Disappointed in Apple. Meta, to be expected. #privacy

@MikeKatell from the @AlanTuringInsti: "What's more important than anything else is to make sure that more voices are included in the conversation, and the voices of the global South, not just those based in the Silicon Valley are heard"

My story on the communique here fastcompany.com/90976518/civ…
🇬🇧CIVIL SOCIETY AT THE SUMMIT: @CenDemTech + other civil society representatives participating in UK #AISafetySummit have issued a communique calling for regulatory action to ensure the current & future trajectory of #AI serves the needs of the public.

A spot on critique of the UK’s AI Safety Summit by @stokel. With scholars and civil society mostly sidelined, it’s going to be steady drumbeat of tech bro talking points and apocalyptic distractions. theguardian.com/commentisfre…

I’ve just watched this on catch-up. I found it eloquent, compelling and very moving. If you haven’t seen it - and whatever preconceptions you bring with you - it is worth watching.
Personally , I've now reached a point where I believe breaking the law for the climate is the ethically responsible thing to do .

Excellent article by @llaurieclarke raising the alarm about the influence on UK AI policy by the cultish Effective Altruism crowd. Well-said by @mhairi_aitken, EA is a dangerous distraction from the real regulatory discussions we need to have right now. politico.eu/article/rishi-su…
Great to see this taskforce taking shape as a here and now focused counterweight to the long-termist "AI as existential threat" distraction narrative. Bonus that that @ginasue is involved too.
'We need to be dealing with people’s realities, not the science fiction of the future'
Professor Gina Neff @ginasue, our Executive Director, will co-chair a new @The_TUC taskforce to develop draft legislation on worker’s rights and #AI.

A remarkable example of public sector AI as existential threat: The carelessness and callousness of an oppressive bureaucracy reinforced through over-reliance on forever-inadequate tech. theguardian.com/us-news/2023…
This is a fantastic piece about what AI is and isn't and why human creativity is likely to remain human. But it's also about how industries are trying to use AI to diminish creative livelihoods.
