It is surreal to watch the talk for our paper by @mcmillan_majora and @emilymbender at @FAccTConference. Never imagined what transpired after we decided to collaborate on this paper. Besides @mmitchell_ai, @blahtino @vinodkpg & @benhutchinson would also have been co-authors. 1/5
This paper already seems to be making an impact, so its extra disheartening that those who spent so much time contributing to it, and without whom it wouldn't have been what it is, aren't allowed to receive credit for it. Every single author was integral to the paper. 2/5
I just can't believe that this was the result of simply writing this paper. Honestly, just sitting here at a conference watching a talk, and waiting for Q&A and reflecting a tiny bit, I can't believe this was the result months after I first sent Emily this message: 3/5
"Hi Emily, I'm wondering if you've written something regarding ethical considerations of large language models or something you could recommend from others?...and if you haven't written something yet I would by customer #1 of anything you write on this end" 4/5
& her answer: "I can kind of see a paper taking shape here, maybe not saying that large language models are bad, but rather using large language models as a case study for ethical pitfalls and what can be done better.
Would you be interested in co-authoring such a thing?" 5/5
