Navigate to the "CreativeAI | Latent Riot " room in the MozFest Spatial Chat to attend this session. Our art work "Latent riot" (https://www.latent-riot.space) deals with the way society thinks and talks about AI: In the public discourse about Artificial Intelligence the narrative of “an AI” that acts according to its own desires and intentions is a common myth. Our artwork shows protest signs generated by Artificial Neural Networks, which is an ironic comment on AI having its own goals and desires to protest.
We will discuss
- how ascribing agency to AI is wrong according to the technical realities behind these systems
- how ascribing agency to AI is harmful because it hides human agency
- what we can do against this trend of ascribing agency to AI in terms of the language we choose. This session is hosted on a third party website.
We want to write a blogpost about the session on the website of our “Moving target collective”.
How will you deal with varying numbers of participants in your session?:We can have breakout rooms to discuss the questions in smaller groups
