It's my personal opinion that the current
@aclmeeting leadership should resign there is nothing ethical about their new ethics policy.
aclweb.org/adminwiki/index.p…
Who in their right mind thinks it's okay to group accounts of personal trauma by members of the @aclmeeting community abandoned by the communities leadership with hate speech, misinformation, depictions of crime and violence.

Could AR glasses let us "install" apps onto any object? Hoping those @apple rumors prove true 🤞

We're organizing a new workshop on data contamination (CONDA) at ACL2024! CFP below
Contamination is when test data was included in training, for any reason. A lot of research is needed to understand when this happens, or prevent it. Consider submitting!

📢 Excited to announce that our Workshop on Data Contamination (CONDA) will be co-located with ACL24 in Bangkok, Thailand on Aug. 16.
We are looking forward to seeing you there!
Check out the CFP and more information here: conda-workshop.github.io/
What a disingenuous response. Keep in mind these were written right after October 7th which fell right before the camera ready deadline. The events directly impacted the authors who were refused recognition by the ACL leadership for their trauma. despite decades of contributions.
Given the public statements made by ACL regarding other recent events, the ACL Leadership's silence on October 7th was deafening and tweets like this one underscore why the authors felt a need to provide the context for their submissions.
Here is the ACL's statement on Russia's invasion of Ukraine. aclweb.org/portal/content/ac…
If this is the way an @aclmeeting member responds to the murder of my family on October 7th by erasing 3,000 years of Jewish history I think this underscores the need for moral clarity and such an ethics statement!
Recognizing the murder of my family by Hamas on October 7th is neither of these things. This is shameful rhetoric for a senior “ethics” researcher from @mozilla.
This Post is from an account that no longer exists. Learn more
Antisemitism like this should have no place at @mozilla no place at @aclmeeting and no place in the ai ethics community.

BREAKING: The “few bad apples” line pushed by the UN has just been obliterated. The Wall Street Journal front page is reporting that an estimated 1,200 Unrwa employees in Gaza are actual “operatives” of Hamas or Palestinian Islamic Jihad, and about half have close relatives who belong to the Islamist terrorist organizations, according to Israeli intelligence estimates shared with the U.S. government.
The report said 23% of Unrwa’s male employees—the agency has a total staff of 12,000 in Gaza—took active part in the Hamas organization’s military or political framework, a higher percentage than the average of 15% for adult males in Gaza.
The information in the Israeli intelligence reports is based on sensitive signals intelligence as well as cellphone tracking data, interrogations of captured Hamas gunmen and documents recovered from dead terrorists.
Nearly half of all Unrwa employees—an estimated 49%—also had close relatives with official ties to Hamas and other terrorist groups.
The Oct. 7 intelligence reports seen by the Wall Street Journal identified an Unrwa Arabic teacher who was also a Hamas terrorist commander and took part in a terrorist attack on Kibbutz Be’eri, where 97 people were murdered, and about 26 people were kidnapped and taken as hostages to Gaza.
Another Unrwa employee, described in the dossier as an Unrwa social worker, played a role in absconding with the body of a dead Israeli soldier, which was taken to Gaza, the reports said. He also coordinated trucks and munitions distributions for Hamas before being killed.

.@NorwayPalestine You forgot to disclose here that the head of your foreign ministry is Leni Stenseth who just completed her term as UNRWA Deputy Commissioner General, during which she visited Hamas chief Yahya Sinwar in Gaza and “affirmed her solidarity.” xitter.cf/HillelNeuer/status/175…
The situation in Gaza is catastrophic, and @UNRWA is the most important humanitarian organization there. Norway continues our support for the Palestinian people through UNRWA. International support for Palestine is needed now more than ever
