#AIEthics#TwitterChat
Excellent! Back to you @CummingsRenee for Q5
How are algorithms recoding the global distribution of power, justice, and responsibility as data becomes a powerful weapon against the pandemic?
#AIEthics#TwitterChat
Would also love your thoughts on Q5 @CarlaHustedt
How are algorithms recoding the global distribution of power, justice, and responsibility as data becomes a powerful weapon against the pandemic?
#AIEthics#TwitterChat
Time for my last question before we turn to audience questions.

Here's a great question from @Maxjb
Let's go with @CummingsRenee first and then @CarlaHustedt
Q7: What are the ways you mitigate ethical risks from Digital IDs if you introduce them to track and trace/ for mobility permissions/immunity passports etc.?

Very excited to have you join us @merbroussard Love your brilliant writing!
Q1. Let’s start with the basic premise of your book. Why do humans find it so hard to understand the outer limits of what tech can do? #AIEthics#TwitterBookChat
Excellent points and context! @merbroussard
On to Q2. I am a big fan of the term ‘Technochauvinism’ you’ve used to describe our blind faith in tech. (How) have you seen this manifest during the pandemic? #AIEthics#TwitterBookChat
Q3. Data is (as you said) both unreasonably and seductively effective. What would you say to folks who pride themselves on being “data-driven” about the flaws or blind spots in their approach? #AIEthics#TwitterBookChat
We're ~45minutes into our May #AIEthics#TwitterBookChat w/ @merbroussard
Q5. Why is there such an obsession with human replacement systems (ex: self-driving cars) vs. human assistance systems?
Time sure flies! Here's my last question @merbroussard
Q6. Speaking of tired old tropes, why does the myth that math/computation are “more objective” or “fairer” persist even after being disproven many times over by experts like yourself, others? #AIEthics#TwitterBookChat

Starting a thread to track impact of #COVID19 on women, marginalized groups."Before the coronavirus pandemic, working moms already did more child care, more housework than their male partners. Surveys say coronavirus has widened that gap" h/t @psb_dcnpr.org/2020/06/28/883…
"Overall, 33% of Americans say that because of the #COVID19 crisis, they or someone in their immediate family has been laid off or lost a job, but rates are higher for women (37%, versus 28% for men), for Hispanics and Blacks (40%, versus 30% for whites)." hbr-org.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/hbr.org/am…
"The latest Associated Press analysis of available state and local data shows that nearly one-third of those who have died are African American, with black people representing about 14% of the population in the areas covered in the analysis." #COVID19spokesman.com/stories/2020/a…

"Black on Black crime" Just as for blacks when it comes to black-on-black crime—whites are mostly victimized by other whites, with the vast majority of white murders committed by whites. theroot.com/why-we-never-t…
“Few bad apples” The point of policing the hood is to demonstrate that the police officer dominates. That he’s the man, regardless of gender, that the officer is the boss, and that everybody else is subordinate...that message is communicated...with fear. vox.com/identities/202…
