Our research is not futile but it can only go so far by staying within the existing structures that currently confine the experience of being a student or professor

After decompressing a bit from the conference formerly known as FAT* I feel the need to clarify that I’m here (in this field) with an agenda, and was really pleased that many others there are interested in navigating the boundaries of the ivory tower in this sort of way. twitter.com/jimmyjwu/statu…

Yes; my father. I know nothing about his field and he had very little advice about CS grad school when I graduated college. But having a STEM prof tell me he thinks i have what it takes to be a mathematician has been a rare and clear advantage throughout my entire life. twitter.com/fromphdtolife/…

some insight for prospective/current PHD students [thread]:
I have a lot undergrad debt, no choice. got into a funded PhD I was relieved. But what isn’t explained to a 1st gen scholar of color is to get CV lines, go to conferences, give talks, etc, requires ALOT of extra money.

The way we talk about data science and focus so much on methods, we actually incentivize working with *bad* data, rather than spending the time to collect good data and then use easy methods with it

Repect to all the researchers presenting at #FAT2020 but the @ctrlz_ai_zines fair down the street is where the real intellectual fireworks were today. I wish there was a critical art intervention at every tech conference I went to! twitter.com/timnitGebru/st…

Especially if you need a ML gal on your neat social science project

Alright. Before I make a sappy post-conference post my biggest pet peeve at #FAT2020 is that we are still categorizing papers by discipline at all. My favorite talks by FAR were collaborations.

There’s some interesting social science research on the idea / lots of models of how it “works”, often to do with social context & interaction, so .... yes? It’s at the very least a concept that doesn’t lend itself well to precise technical definitions!

The recent work just mentioned #FAT2020 on how explanations can be gamed is by @dylanslack20 et al: arxiv.org/abs/1911.02508

#AI explainability is mainly used for internal debugging, its goals are not clearly defined, and it has serious technical limitations. 'we suggest everyone cast doubt on those who are claiming to work with explainability technologies' @umangsbhatt at #acmfat2020

Telling everyone who will listen at this conf about my recent realization of how multiple ontological/epistemic paradigms exist lol
