BRAID fellowships launch tomorrow!

This is a wonderful opportunity to co-direct the institute. It's a really great job in a really great city. We particularly welcome applications from those who are currently under-represented in the socio-technical design community. If in doubt, please apply.

Some personal news: I'm honoured to have been awarded a @Braid_UK Arts and Humanities Research Council fellowship to work with BBC. For the next 18 months, I'll be working with BBC Research & Development to address Responsible AI Literacy in Journalism. Looking forward to working with Rhianne Jones and the BBC & BRAID teams.

Really interested to see what comes out of this work from by brilliant colleague [email protected] - and indeed from the whole cohort of fellowships from @Braid_UK announced today!

this is insane. they are literally writing their own exam and grading it themselves

Can’t quite believe it needs saying. Use of creative content without consent or remuneration, or even acknowledgement of the creator is not ok. Especially in the design of systems that already threaten creative practice.

Innovation Fellowships – Route B: Policy-led (Digital Society) in collaboration with Bridging Responsible AI Divides, supported by Department for Science, Innovation and Technology and Arts and Humanities Research Council, are open for applications. Work across a range of AI topics at the heart of policy-making: thebritishacademy.ac.uk/funding/innova…

Donald Trump, a self-confessed sexual assaulter, being named Time's Person of the Year over Gisele Pelicot, who was drugged & raped by her husband & 100 men for YEARS, and who waived anonymity to change the world for women, shows you exactly why women are rightly fucking ANGRY.

With the global push for AI innovation there's never been a better time for international collaboration on responsible AI. Here's a new BRAID call for collaboration between UK and US institutions. ukri.org/opportunity/ah…
