SUMMARY:Data\, Big And Small: How The Datasets That Power AI Are Made
DESCRIPTION:Mozilla Festival 2021 (March 8th – 19th\, 2021)\nlogin\n\n \n\nData\, Big And Small: How The Datasets That Power AI Are Made \n .ical\n\n2021-03-18\, 18:00–19:00\, Zoom Room 1A\n\n\n\nAI as a field\, and as a buzzword\, has exploded in the past few years. But for many\, AI seems like something conjured out of the ether: a computerized intelligence created with nothing but code. This is not the case. The explosion in AI has related directly to an explosion in the available data for training: these algorithms are fed massive datasets and learn to imitate the human behaviors that went into creating them. In this workshop\, we’ll explore a quick history of the datasets behind AI and the human labor that made them\, discussing the advent of web scraping\, ImageNet\, Mechanical Turk\, and more. After that\, we’ll discuss the ethical considerations of dataset creation\, then go into a hands-on portion where we create and label our own image and text datasets for use\, to give participants firsthand experience of the messy\, human process of making them.

SUMMARY:Spotlight on Artificial Intelligence & Freedom of Expression: Shaping Online Content
DESCRIPTION:Mozilla Festival 2021 (March 8th – 19th\, 2021)\nlogin\n\n \n\nSpotlight on Artificial Intelligence & Freedom of Expression: Shaping Online Content \n .ical\n\n2021-03-16\, 18:00–19:00\, Zoom Room 7A\n\n\n\n\nArtificial intelligence (AI) increasingly shapes and arbitrates online information. Content moderation and curation are often automated processes\, with algorithms and AI deciding on which content is taken down or to whom it is disseminated. The use of AI can severely affect freedom of expression and media freedom\, thereby shaping our opinions and behavior. Yet\, AI tools are regularly deployed with little transparency or oversight. \nThis workshop will put a spotlight on AI and freedom of expression. The aim of the session is to identify and discuss what can and should be done to better protect free speech online\, both on an individual and global level\, and to explore how ordinary citizens and users can better protect their freedom of expression\, privacy and access to pluralistic information online.

SUMMARY:AI Bias beyond the western lens: Perspectives from India
DESCRIPTION:Mozilla Festival 2021 (March 8th – 19th\, 2021)\nlogin\n\n \n\nAI Bias beyond the western lens: Perspectives from India \n .ical\n\n2021-03-15\, 15:45–16:45\, Zoom Room 6B\n\n\n\nSeveral studies have documented the risks of AI bias\, most notably in the context of gender and racial bias. Most of these conversations\, particularly those involving empirical analysis\, stem from a western perspective\, generally relying on western datasets and institutional structures. \nThis session will discuss the implementations of such systems from an Indian perspective\, highlighting the role that institutional biases play in all stages\, from data generation to decision making. \nBy looking at Indian implementations we hope to highlight the importance of local context and evaluate biases that cut across complexities of caste\, religion\, class\, and regional divides. This offers a starting point for discussions on AI bias rooted in the realities of bias as experienced across different countries and communities.

SUMMARY:DIY Facial Recognition Resistance
DESCRIPTION:Mozilla Festival 2021 (March 8th – 19th\, 2021)\nlogin\n\n \n\nDIY Facial Recognition Resistance \n .ical\n\n2021-03-13\, 18:15–19:15\, Zoom Room 2B \n\n\n\n\nFacial detection and recognition systems are becoming increasingly prevalent in our public and private lives. The implications of mass-biometric-surveillance as a tool to undermine privacy are clear. Yet\, many lack a fundamental understanding of how these complex and often proprietary (or „black box“) systems work. This workshop seeks to support participants to learn the primary strategies for undermining these systems through a DIY hands-on approach. Participants will craft expressive wearable looks that undermine common facial detection algorithm strategies\, using household objects\, natural elements\, or other readily available materials. The workshop’s goals are to support a more thorough (and accessible) understanding of how facial detection systems work and to promote conversation about privacy and biometric surveillance.

SUMMARY:AI vs. our bodies: How can we exists as women or a gender diverse people on social media
DESCRIPTION:Mozilla Festival 2021 (March 8th – 19th\, 2021)\nlogin\n\n \n\nAI vs. our bodies: How can we exists as women or a gender diverse people on social media \n .ical\n\n2021-03-13\, 15:45–16:45\, Zoom Room 2B\n\n\n\n\nDuring the recent pandemic\, the Content Moderation Tools use in Social Media has become more dependent on AI’s. This situation has brought issues for all marginalized communities\, especially women and gender diverse where their bodies and sometimes expressions of self are censored by these tools and when they ask for reasons the algorithm shows its BIAS\, and the post never is shared again\, this is making that women and gender diverse people censure themselves in order to fill the „Community Standards“ and with this increasing the gender breach online. With this discussion\, we want to think of possibles ways to solve it and share ideas for an online campaign that points to those AI’s/CMT BIAS have.

SUMMARY:Operationalizing AI Ethics
DESCRIPTION:Mozilla Festival 2021 (March 8th – 19th\, 2021)\nTelinahme nach Anmldung auf https://www.mozillafestival.org/de/\n\n\nOperationalizing AI Ethics \n .ical\n\n2021-03-11\, 19:15–20:15\, Zoom Room 2B\n\n\n\nThe strong increase in the development and deployment of Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems has led to growing concerns about the ethical aspects of these systems. As a result\, a proliferation of high-level ethical principles for AI has emerged. But\, as it turns out\, these principles are very difficult to bring into practice: principles may place conflicting demands on AI design or are hard to formalize in a univocal way. \nWe will discuss these hard questions of operationalizing AI ethics via thought-provoking questions and dilemmas for the audience to consider. And we will look at the preliminary results from the Moral AI-Gency project: an initiative supported by the SIDN Fonds\, Erasmus University Rotterdam and de Volksbank to provide research driven answers on how we can balance AI’s unique potential for problem solving with the serious ethical risks of discrimination\, lack of transparency and the diffusion of responsibility. \n\n\nHow will you deal with varying numbers of participants in your session? –Ethics is a topic that everyone has intuitions on. Therefore\, for the discussion the number of people present doesn’t have to impede the discussions on the values we think are important in AI systems and especially how we want to see these values operationalized. Via interactive tools such as Mentimeter\, the positions of the audience on several ethical questions can be explored and discussed. And even with 1 person in the room these discussion can prove to be valuable. \nWe’re hoping that many efforts and discussions will continue after Mozfest. Share any ideas you already have for how to continue the work from your session. –We welcome participants who are interested in continuing the discussion after the session. Furthermore\, the project is very much oriented on Dutch organizations and European perspectives. Any international contributions would expand the scope of the project and would provide valuable input for generalizing the results of the research and the scope of the ethical framework. If audience members are interested we can organize these discussions on a separate platform or in more informal face-to-face video calls.

SUMMARY:How to make unethical AI
DESCRIPTION:Mozilla Festival 2021 (March 8th – 19th\, 2021)\n\n\n \n\nHow to make unethical AI \n .ical\n\n2021-03-11\, 18:00–19:00\, Zoom Room 2A\n\n\n\nThere are a lot of high-level and often abstract AI guidelines being created\, which talk about „human flourishing“ and „ethics should be considered from the start“. But what does this mean in the real world? In this session we take a ‚bottom up‘ approach\, and look at the real-world ethical conundrums that creators run into. \nTo start us of we’ll dive into the development of a BMI prediction algorithm that was created for “How Normal Am I?”\, an interactive documentary about the limitations of face recognition technology\, created by artist Tijmen Schep. \nHe is joined by by Tom Simonite\, a senior writer with WIRED in San Francisco\, who has covered the tech industry’s soaring AI ambitions and the depths of its ethical dilemmas. \nSession participants are encouraged to share conundrums they have wrestled with. Try out HowNormalAmI.eu before you join this session. \n\n\nHow will you deal with varying numbers of participants in your session? –We will start of by talking about some of the practical issues I myself ran into\, so that should hopefully be interesting to any size group. Then\, as we move to the conversation\, the more people there are\, the more anekdotes may surface. Tom will help in structuring this discourse\, as well as adding his own insights and framing where useful. For example to discern patterns or point out potential blind spots in current approaches. \nWe do want to keep it one communal session\, so there is a practical limit to how many people can join while feeling like they can contribute. But I hope just listening in will also be a lot of fun. \nWhat is the goal and/or outcome of your session? –The goal is to try and bridge the gap between practice and idealism. For example\, there are currently countless documents being created by AI think tanks and EU research groups (including mine) that attempt to address the many human rights issues surrounding AI. My harddrive is currently full of them. But I find that because these academic researchers often aren’t developers themselves\, these lists of principles might not always optimally be informed by the ‚truth on the ground‘. \nFor example\, if a policy document says that „AI should promote human flourishing“\, then a party like Google can easily say „well\, we feel we do that“. Because you’re not being precise\, you leave a lot of space for interpretation. \nI would like to ‚lay my ear to ground‘ with creators who might recognise these issues\, and may contribute to the development of more pragmatic and ’strict‘ AI impact assessments. \nWe’re hoping that many efforts and discussions will continue after Mozfest. Share any ideas you already have for how to continue the work from your session. –This session will practically be used to inform the development of SHERPA’s explorations in this area – I will be inviting my academic compadres to join in too. E.g. Kevin Macnish\, Bernd Stahl and others who would like to join. As the artist in the consortium\, this is one way for me to play a playful role in how this research and its outcomes may develop. \nI am also literally developing a new art piece for SHERPA\, which is a humorous online AI impact assessment tool. Of course it will be fun\, but come with a deeper message about being both more holistic and more pragmatic about these types of tools.

SUMMARY:Truth as a Public Good
DESCRIPTION:Mozilla Festival 2021 (March 8th – 19th\, 2021)\nlogin\n\n \n\nTruth as a Public Good \n .ical\n\n2021-03-10\, 21:15–22:45\, Zoom Room 3A\n\n\n\nSince October 2020\, the Truth as a Public Good Working Group has been exploring the “dilemma” of standardized content and data authentication and the stakeholders involved in this decision-making ecosystem. Content authentication\, evaluating the integrity of shared multimedia content\, is crucial in the era of increasing erosion of the public’s trust in media and information sources. \nTruth as a Public Good will be examined in the context of the Covid-19 vaccine story and how it relates to the public’s right to authenticating public health data. Truth as a Public Good will anchor this concept in the public’s shared experience of observing development of the Covid-19 Vaccine. This working group will host a World Cafe style workshop to examine authentication layers. \n\n\nHow will you deal with varying numbers of participants in your session? –We know the format of the workshop (~World Cafe); however\, we’d like to leave a degree of fluidity for the content/thematic areas since we intend to test this workshop format and concept at least once before the larger event during one of our weekly meetings. This will help us better understand what can be achieved in an hour with this format and iterate the workshop design accordingly. \nWhat is the goal and/or outcome of your session? –The overarching goals of the authentication examinations will be to:\n1) tell a significant story that is both highly relevant and accessible to society today\n2) have a useful and accessible output\n3) engage with stakeholders directly – we’d like to include relevant stakeholders stationary at their respective „tables“ to anchor the workshop in a real-world lived experience – these stakeholders might include professionals\, experts\, academic researchers as well as those who will be most directly implicated in the solutions. \nWe’re hoping that many efforts and discussions will continue after Mozfest. Share any ideas you already have for how to continue the work from your session. –Thus far\, we’ve designed the thematic areas to be broken up into different „layers“ of authentication examinations such as i) infrastructure/Internet pipelines\, ii) hardware/devices\,iii) software/apps\, iv) data\, v) shared content OR perhaps by centering a different issue areas such as i) Covid vaccines\, ii) health-wearables\, iii) manipulated imagery\, iv) Internet pipelines in the Global South\, v) making health data accessible and understandable to patients. Our goal is to continue centering different types of authentication examinations over time to build consensus around guiding principles and develop a toolkit that is representative of our collective ideals for TaPG in line with the Trustworthy AI theme.

SUMMARY:Developing fake news immunity
DESCRIPTION:Mozilla Festival 2021 (March 8th – 19th\, 2021)\nlogin\n\n \n\nDeveloping fake news immunity \n .ical\n\n2021-03-10\, 14:30–15:30\, Zoom Room 3A\n\n\n\n\nIn this workshop we provide citizens with tools to navigate mis-/dis-information in a critical way and improve their decision making processes during the pandemic and beyond. As part of our ESRC funded project “Being Alone Together: Developing Fake News Immunity” we developed a multi-player chatbot that teaches people how to recognize rhetorical strategies that are used to spread misinformation. In this way\, people become their own fact-checkers.\nWe will begin by explaining the different information manipulations on the internet and then divide the participants to smaller groups to play with our chatbot. We believe that playing together is more powerful than individual learning\, because people can debate\, consult and understand together. After this we will reconvene and discuss what we learned\, how the chatbot contributed to their understanding of misinformation and what can be improved. \n\n\nHow will you deal with varying numbers of participants in your session? –While it is hard for us to know how many people will participate in the workshop we will be flexible and divide participants according to the amount of people who will show up. We will try to make diverse groups which have gender\, age and ethnicity balance to have groups with different opinions. Each group will be provided with a short feedback form to evaluate the fake news immunity chatbot. The form will touch upon both content (e.g. were the examples relevant for me?)\, design (e.g. is the chatbot engaging? Who is your favourite participant and why?) We believe that creating these groups have the potential to create interesting discussions and engagements and that people will contribute from their own experience and then feed this feedback back to the discussion afterwards. \nWe’re hoping that many efforts and discussions will continue after Mozfest. Share any ideas you already have for how to continue the work from your session. –With our project we hope to continue the conversation and expand the types of audiences we engage with to get insights and improve the chatbot. We hope to open a conversation with people who will tell us what works and what doesn’t so that we can tailor the way the chatbot responds to different audiences and communities needs. We will also circulate the project website (https://fakenewsimmunity.liverpool.ac.uk/) with contact details so that people will have the chance to directly reach out to us or leave comments on our comment page.

For the first time in 2020\, RDR added new standards\, ranking companies on their use of algorithms and targeted advertising systems. In this session\, we’ll convene researchers and digital rights experts around key questions: What do companies say about their targeted advertising and algorithmic systems? How can companies be more transparent about these remarkably opaque systems? Our longitudinal data can help answer these and many related questions. We’ll ask participants to work together to develop advocacy strategies using companies’ very own words–specifically their privacy and AI policies–to hold them accountable to users.

März 2021\, 18:00 – 19:30 Uhr\, widmet sich dem Thema Datenkompetenz. \n  \n\n\n\n\nZeit: Dienstag\, 9. März 2021 18:00 Uhr bis Dienstag\, 9. März 2021 19:30 Uhr \nWeizenbaum-Forum \n\n\nData Literacy ist die Kompetenz des 21. Jahrhunderts. In vielen Teilen unserer Gesellschaft entstehen zurzeit neue Angebote\, die uns zum kompetenten Umgang mit digitalen Daten befähigen sollen. Universitäten bieten Grundkurse für Data Literacy an\, Unternehmen entwickeln neue Weiterbildungsangebote und die Politik versucht bestehende Maßnahmen in Toolboxen zu bündeln. \nAber was heißt es eigentlich datenkompetent zu sein? Die Definitionen von Data Literacy sind so vielseitig wie unsere Gesellschaft selbst. Das hängt auch damit zusammen\, dass Prozesse des datenbasierten Entscheidens\, um die sich bei Data Literacy alles dreht\, sich nicht auf Unternehmen beschränken. Sie können an Schulen genauso eine Rolle spielen wie in börsennotierten Konzernen und reichen dabei auch immer in unseren privaten Alltag hinein. \nIn drei Impulsvorträgen werden die wissenschaftlichen\, gesellschaftlichen und unternehmerischen Implikationen von Datenkompetenz beleuchtet. \n\nBitte melden Sie sich bis zum 9. März (12:00 Uhr) über das Onlineformular für die Veranstaltung an. \n\nIMPULSBEITRÄGE: \n\nBennet Etsiwah\, Wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter am Weizenbaum-Institut / Universität der Künste Berlin\nLaura Ludwig\, Doktorandin an der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin und Mitgründerin des Museums für Werte\nDr. Hartmut Wilke\, Intelligence Architect bei Birds on Mars\n\n\nMODERATION: \n\nStefanie Hecht\, Wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin am Weizenbaum-Institut / Universität der Künste

SUMMARY:Creating Inclusive Worlds: Lesson Development with Computing Ethics Narratives for Future Technologists
DESCRIPTION:Mozilla Festival 2021 (March 8th – 19th\, 2021)\nlogin\n\n \n\nCreating Inclusive Worlds: Lesson Development with Computing Ethics Narratives for Future Technologists \n .ical\n\n2021-03-09\, 18:00–19:00\, Zoom Room 4A\n\n\n\nThis workshop will describe the work of the Computing Ethics Narratives (CEN) project funded by Mozilla’s Responsible Computer Science Challenge (https://foundation.mozilla.org/en/initiatives/responsible-cs/). As a part of the workshop\, participants will learn how to use a repository of fiction and non-fiction media resources (clips\, articles\, podcasts\, images\, etc.) to build lessons and modules for teaching computer science students about creating more inclusive technologies and the impact their work can have on society\, both positive and negative. The facilitators will provide examples of current modules around this topic\, module templates\, and access to the repository for participants to leave with a draft lesson module addressing the topic of creating more inclusive and equitable technologies.

SUMMARY:What if we educated AI based on the world we want instead of the world we have?

SUMMARY:Shadowbans\, nudity\, censorship and moderation: how can we effectively moderate social media content without affecting freedom of speech?
DESCRIPTION:Mozilla Festival 2021 (March 8th – 19th\, 2021)\nlogin\n\n \n\nShadowbans\, nudity\, censorship and moderation: how can we effectively moderate social media content without affecting freedom of speech? \n .ical\n\n2021-03-08\, 18:00–19:00\, Zoom Room 8B\n\n\n\n\nIn this session\, I will draw from my academic research on online abuse\, conspiracy theories and content moderation and from my activism around Instagram censorship of nudity. I will start by telling my story – from receiving an apology from Instagram about censoring pole dance in 2019\, to launching the #EveryBODYVisible global anti-censorship campaign on the platform. Considering that\, particularly in a global pandemic\, online visibility is essential for workers\, creators and marginalised communities\, I hope to start the conversation on the visibility of bodies and on what audiences consider acceptable online content.
