Some harmful algorithms shouldn't exist. But what does it mean to "abandon" an algorithm that has already been built or deployed? Our #FAccT2024 paper analyzes 40 real-world cases to understand how calls for abandonment can be better supported.🧵 arxiv.org/abs/2404.13802 (1/n)

So excited that the paper is finally out 🥳! Huge congrats to Jordan Taylor for leading and reframing this work 👏! I am really proud of the final outcomes, and working on this piece has truly transformed my approach to the concept of "marginalization" in my future work.

Seeing this one QT'ed a lot: What helps here is to understand what "political" means. Something "political" concerns power, society, and prioritization. Who you read, who you cite, and what you teach, are political choices.

First, The Human Factor in AI Red Teaming (sites.google.com/view/thehumanf…) ddl Sept. 15. This thing they're calling AI red-teaming---what is it, how do we understand it in histories of security, design, and labor, and how do we make the process safer for red-teamers?
