    This is creepy. Not much different from #medbikini incident. https://twitter.com/AnimaAnandkumar/status/1288155738418737154?s=20 … Main difference is #AI can snoop social media accounts at scale and amplify bias even more.https://twitter.com/tweetsatpreet/status/1294012804215664640 …

        In UK they used a model to literally decide the future of the children by setting their exam marks.https://twitter.com/wilkinson_rich/status/1293969709168308227?s=21 …

        So the algorithm details have now been published. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/awarding-gcse-as-a-levels-in-summer-2020-interim-report … The report is 319 pages long and it's probably irresponsible to criticise without properly reading it.... but dipping into it a few things jump out.

        In banks where I work we use models to decide the future of adults, who is going to get credit and who is not. I know it’s the norm but still I find it weird that a mode can tell you if an individual can default or not. The accuracy of these models and their quality wouldn’t(1/2)

        Wow, so you can be rejected if you conform to an ideology or are even a bit sarcastic with your tweets that lead to alignment with the inherent bias of the system. So no matter how talented you are, your opinion on something can basically blacklist you from getting a job.

        (2/2) wouldn’t have passed undergraduate exams. My take is that models are good to predict general population trends and NOT individual behaviour. This is the whole concept of a model being robust that it will not get affected by outliers or changes in data will not dramatically

        It seems like around 25% of #AI is companies just coming up with new ways to justify racism. "Hey, I'm not racist, it was the computer that told me never to hire any minorities."

        And their CEO's argument is that "it is only doing what recruiters already do"! Sure, people can be jerks, but at least some recruiters are thoughtful people. This AI is unavoidably going to be utilising protected attributes, and they are systematising and AI-washing that bias.
