I'll be at #NeurIPS2024 presenting this work! Would love to chat if you are interested!

Mitigating racial bias from LLMs is a lot easier than removing it from humans! Can’t believe this happened at the best AI conference NeurIPS Conference We have ethical reviews for authors, but missed it for invited speakers? 😡

Using racial labels to describe misconduct is harmful and inappropriate. NeurIPS Conference must not condone speech that targets specific ethnic groups. We urge Rosalind Picard Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) MIT Media Lab to retract and apologize for her statement. Btw, most Rosalinds I know are honest and morally

I'm shocked to see racism happening in academia again, at the best AI conference NeurIPS Conference. Targeting specific ethnic groups to describe misconduct is inappropriate and unacceptable. NeurIPS Conference must take a stand. We call on Rosalind Picard Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) MIT Media Lab to retract and

NeurIPS acknowledges that the cultural generalization made by the keynote speaker today reinforces implicit biases by making generalisations about Chinese scholars. This is not what NeurIPS stands for. NeurIPS is dedicated to being a safe space for all of us. We want to address
