This post should be scheduled at 11:20
I do not know what's worse from this: either the toxic culture at @protonprivacy@mastodon.social instilled by their CEO, the fact they are embracing #AI and relying on it for privacy criticall apps, or that they are relying in Claude and not their own tech and that does not inspire confidence either
UPDATE: due to recent changes to jitsi policies, limiting the sessions' time, The meeting will take place at this new URL: meet.montera34.org/CriticAIK...
Join me to help me kick-off @CriticAI a community of practice to critically enquiry about #AI ’s adoption in Higher Education and Academia and is part of my fellowship at @SoftwareSaved@mastodon.social

Sharing a reading on AI and racism
Posted in
CriticAI Community
After an initial round to scope interest and shape direction on @CriticAI , the following stood out:
- there's a lot to say on how #AI is used in #Academia / #HE and its short and long-term implications,
- there's a willingness for people to share their thoughts and experience in a caring environment;
- there's little clarity or consensus when it comes to the specifics.
To address these items, during the last weeks of October, I will be facilitating 2 online and independent meetings and an asynchronous "meeting" aimed at codesigning this community.
You can read more about the kick-off here: hackmd.io/CxwTbrIzR22OXdnVkO...
