Following on from the issue of gender ; the staff who prepare the data on which AI is trained are treated to standards far below human rights expectations. This crosses the global south @karenhao.bsky.social #EmpireofAI

Moving on @karenhao argues that big tech too often demands the public serves it; not that it (profitably) serves them.

What makes a good search engine? These 4 models can help you use search in the age of AI
To make sure search engines serve us well, it’s helpful to imagine these tools having different roles – whether it’s a “librarian” or a “teacher”.

This is absolutely BRILLIANT.
The Finnish gov knows that educating its kids to critically think so they can understand the concept of actual fake news will protect its democracy.
The Aust gov needs to consider adding this type of leaning to the Aus curriculum.

Finland is winning the war on fake news. What it’s learned may be crucial to Western democracy
Russia's neighbor has developed a plan for countering misinformation. Can it be exported to the rest of the world?
