What a sad day! This is another attack on Black people! Let us prepare for a more intense fightback! Here is my statement on Affirmative Action on my sister Dana Bash’s CNN show! #AffirmativeAction

It is really important for the Oversight Board to hear from a wide range of experts in its cases. Glad to see ICJ ICJ - Asia and the Pacific welcome yesterday's Cambodia Prime Minister decision, after also taking the time to submit a public comment in the case: icj.org/cambodia-icj-w…

Importantly, this case works through the information we need to understand ML classification and human review at scale. There's always trade-offs. Understanding error rates and the distribution of who they impact is crucial. Great coverage:

Join us at IGF - Internet Governance Forum in Kyoto this week 🇯🇵 Our Board Member Nicolas Suzor will discuss evolving trends in mis- & dis-Information and #AI with industry leaders. 🗓️ October 8 🕘 11:25 -12:45 JST/UTC+9 Watch live: intgovforum.org/en/content/igf… #IGF23

New piece on the EU DSA out with Jenny Orlando-Salling ! A short 🧵

Happening now at #IGF2023, panel on evolving trends in dis/mis-information with Nicolas Suzor Oversight Board Maria Ressa Věra Jourová. Watch live here: m.youtube.com/watch?v=Q1fzSS…

“It’s been a busy few years in the mis/dis-information space with the pandemic and elections. Despite initial resistance, tech companies have been forced to grapple with their role in deciding what is truthful and harmful.” Nicolas Suzor Oversight Board has weighed in. #IGF2023

How to address the impact of automated technologies on marginalized groups? Nicolas Suzor: Start by acknowledging that power matters and current data frequently perpetuate inequities. The burden shouldn’t be on the marginalized groups to point out these problems to the tech companies

Aiming for transparency and accountability, these approaches seem to partially rely on problematic assumptions, as Nicolas Suzor points out. Such assumptions are that a) falsehoods can be clearly dissected in unintentional mis- and intentional dis-information, #IGF2023

Today the Board overturned Meta’s decision to leave up a post that targeted transgender people with violent speech, advocating for them to commit suicide. Meta’s repeated failure to take the correct enforcement action shows it is not living up to its ideals on LGBTQIA+ safety.

I'm actually a lot happier than I look for midnight on Friday. Thanks to @yasmincurzi Luca Belli and CTS-FGV for a good discussion on 'information integrity'; there's a recording somewhere in this thread.
