AIxDesign In The Loop #8 ➰

A bit of a longer watch, but if you're looking for a documentary to watch, take a look at this one! Full documentary available on Youtube. "As the drama unfolds, more questions emerge: What can artificial intelligence reveal about a 3000-year-old game? What can it teach us about humanity?"

By Stanford HAI | The AI Index Report tracks, collates, distills, and visualizes data relating to artificial intelligence to develop a deeper understanding of the complex field.
|
By Ben Syverson, IDEO | What happens when you invite GPT-3 to a virtual brainstorm session? A designer/developer at IDEO ran an experiment and wrote about it here!
|
"This database* is an ongoing project to aggregate tools and resources for artists, engineers, curators & researchers interested in incorporating machine learning (ML) and other forms of artificial intelligence (AI) into their practice."

Latent Riot is a series of artificial protest signs produced by a generative neural network. Thanks Ploi for sharing this on Slack!

UPCOMING EVENT 🗓 — AIxDesign Keynote: AI explainability using Data Storytelling
|
We mostly see the application of data storytelling in the context of design, journalism, or media outlets. Yet how can data storytelling be applied to AI technologies to help people better see through AI? If we want to support fair and trustworthy use of AI we have to first be able to explain this technology by reimagining the ways we communicate algorithms and models.
About the speaker:
Mara Pometti
is Lead AI Content Strategy at IBM. She defines and designs the strategy for AI solutions by revealing overlooked insights hidden in companies’ data. Mara finds herself at the intersection of the technical and business realms, acting as a translator who bridges these two worlds through data stories. Throughout her journey, she has been adopting design as an approach to explore the AI’s outcome and craft it into new content.
As a polymath sitting at the intersection of data science, journalism and design, Mara aims to bring together strategy, design, and storytelling to connect AI to people by making it more understandable, trustworthy and POP.
|
[Carnegie Melon University / Microsoft Research] Looking for research participants for a study on what methods and tools could better support collaboration around fairness in machine learning. For individuals or teams working on fairness in ML; open to team members in all roles (e.g., engineers, data scientists, product/project managers, UX/UI designers, domain experts, etc.)
We will be conducting interviews and design activities for 45 to 90 minutes each, depending on your availability. These sessions will be conducted remotely in one-on-one or small group settings, and you will be compensated with a $30 gift card for participating in each session. We will anonymize all participants at the individual, team, and organization level. You will have the opportunity to decide not to respond to particular questions, and, prior to publication, we will give you the opportunity to review any anonymized quotes from you.

[AIxDesign Events Support] Open call for support in organizing events! As you know we organize keynotes and workshops that are open to the public (and donation-based) around our 5 pillars (responsible, accessible, creative, applied, and user-friendly AI) and we're looking for help to keep these up on at least a monthly basis.
It consists of choosing and reaching out to invite speakers, co-creating the session with them on a call, writing a nice event title & description, posting on Eventbrite, sending email with link, potentially hosting during the event, and sending follow-up emails to the participants after. We're open to help with all of it but if you'd like to only help with some parts that's helpful too.
