The recently published 'Ethics of Advanced AI Assistants' boasts that it is the first systemic treatment of the subject matter. Do the researchers at @DeepMind not have access to Google Search?

Thank you for being with us!

My panel #AI #workingconditions , I discussed rise #affective #neurotechnology programs emotion recognition ~ machines for ‘intelligence’. technology is not neutral.. workers risk privacy & autonomy. Focus on social relations. Eur Pillar of Social Rights #LaHulpe European Commission

A new concept of worker, getting protection regardless of whether they are employed or self-employed is long overdue. EU law is increasingly moving in this direction, but much needs to be done. A new blog with Nicola Countouris and Lord Hendy KC socialeurope.eu/social-europe-…

Would be great if there were AI community awards for people who are great *collaborators*, as opposed to so many focusing on who's the best *leader*. Leader focus fuels territorialism, which ultimately ends up pushing out people with tech-marginalized characteristics.

As long as workers are subject to race to the bottom activity, migration restrictions and high prices for technology will not be replaced completely. #automation #amazon #workersrights futurism.com/the-byte/amazo…
