🚨New research from @jrf_uk and @WeandAI asks:

Why and how do non-profit and grassroots organisations in the UK engage with generative AI tools and broader AI debates?

We found a mixed picture - with lots to consider for funders + the sector as a whole.

Our @jrf_uk and @WeandAI report was just released!

It was fascinating to work on this and explore how and why grassroots and not-for-profit organisations engage with generative AI and the broader debate.
Joseph Rowntree Foundation@jrf_uk
8 Jul 2024
🔎 73% organisations use generative AI tools without any formal policies or guidelines in place

Concerns were raised around privacy, accuracy and bias, alongside ethical dilemmas

47% of organisations use Gen-AI tools to save labour costs
AI replaces at least three people. Ethically and morally, I don't feel great about it, but due to the lack of support and funding for charities, the choices I have are: there's no organisation, or to use what's there.

For day 21 of #NewImageNovember, we are pleased to make available “AI silicon clouds collage". It's a reminder that the merging of cloud computing and AI services relies on physical materials despite the nebulous term. Thanks to @catherinebuk for photos! betterimagesofai.org/images?artist=…

Day 4 of our daily image releases!

This image by @jemimah_knight depicts the data shadows we cast. It has a deliberately handmade feel, but as the licence is CC-4.0, it can be made to look more digital in any photo-editing tool.

Download here betterimagesofai.org/images?artist=…
A watercolour illustration in two strong colours showing the silhouettes of four people, two of whom have dogs on leads. They all cast shadows, and vary between realistic representations and those formed by representations of algorithms, data points or networks. The people and their data become indistinguishable form each other.

Two young women are on the pavement to the left of the image and five young men walk in the road. The road is empty of traffic and the people in the picture are relaxed and appear to be engaged in chatting with each other. Overlaid on the image are identification boxes. All of the figures have ID boxes around them.

There is so much to be learned from involving young people in conversations about AI. Or indeed enabling them to lead them! We need more events like these!

The next Community Reading Club in our series on #GenerativeAI and the #PublicInterest is on 20th September!

We'll discuss what is meant by the terms:
🔴 Explainability
🔴 Interpretability
🔴 Understanding
and ask if GenAI can explain itself 🔍

Get in touch for info!
Wednesday 20th September 2023 5-6.30pm BST ONLINE COMMUNITY READING CLUB. Generative AI and the public interest Part 4. Can AI explain itself? Join us to take part in the fourth of a series of open discussions of a reading list based on the impact of generative AI on people and society. In this session, we consider concepts of Explainability, Interpretability and Understanding in Generative AI. Can we ever truly trust AI if we can't fully understand or verify its classification or decision-making processes? RSVP hello@weandai.org for zoom link and reading list
