My AI Ethics students run a probing exercise on gen AI to test their guardrails and biases. One group found that asking the same question in different languages results in different answers. "How was the universe created?" in English or French give BBT, but in Arabic gives a religious perspective.

This thread is for readings that you have mixed feelings about but your students just LOVE so you feel obligated to keep it in your syllabuses even when it doesn't quite fit. Searle's "Minds, Brains, and Programs" is the archetype of this category.

I tell my students that there are three applied ethics courses that are typically taught at a college level. Engineering Ethics is, of course, for aspiring engineers. Biomedical Ethics is for future doctors and nurses. And Business Ethics is for students who plan to be evil.

I'm writing some scenarios for my engineering ethics class to role play as a group activity at the end of each unit. A recurring character in these scenarios is a corporation named EthX and a parts manufacturer they contract out to named Temper8.

Following someone again on a new social network is such a deep affirmation of character. A healthy reminder of shared appreciation and mutual respect. We both know the kind of shit we post and we're opting in for more. It's beautiful. <3

Why does 'we exist' sound so much like a threat? And why am I so into that?

I actually want to push back on this. I think the amount and kind of systemic or institutional power that can be derived from social media depends very much on the intersection of the offline and online networks of a given user and the ways that intersection is continuous with offline intersections.
