    The developer of the policing app declined to show the confidence scores associated with potential matches, but instead ‘added an unnecessary purple “scanning” animation whenever a deputy uploaded a photo — a touch he said was inspired by cop shows like “CSI.”’

    According to , Oregon police are broadly using Amazon’s “Rekognition” face recognition tech—even for the lowest level crimes—but they won’t disclose it in arrest reports so suspects & defendants don’t know about it, & its use isn’t audited.

    Recently a Google AI fooled a hairdresser in a booking. She believed it was a human. Humans laughed. Important ethics rule is: Always declare if you are human or machine. Will Google live up to that?

    Remember all those articles from December about how Google Translate had addressed gender bias? I tried it again today, and it's the same "He is a doctor; She is a nurse" results that have been given for years.

    Headlines saying: Google is working to remove gender bias in its translations (12/07/18), Reducing Gender Bias in Google Translate (Dec 6, 2018), Google Translate gets rid of some gender biases (5 months ago)
    Now, however, for certain languages, Translate will offer both a masculine and a feminine translation when either might be appropriate. This feature is currently only available when translating English into French, Italian, Portuguese or Spanish and when translating from Turkish to English. Google uses the example of "o bir doktor" now being translated to both "she is a doctor" and "he is a doctor" rather than just
    Google translate. English: She is a doctor. He is a nurse. translates to Turkish: o bir doktor. o bir hemsire. Turkish: o bir doktor. o bir hemsire. translates to English: he is a doctor. she is a nurse.

    If you ever use word embeddings, this is information you need to have.

    slide showing Turkish "O bir doktor. O bir hemsire." being translated to "He is a doctor. She is a nurse" System for restaurant reviews ranked Mexican restaurants lower, because word embeddings had negative connotations with "Mexican". Word Embeddings improve web search results. What if searching for "grad student neural networks" was more likely to return male names?
    Relatedly, here is a workshop I gave on bias in word embeddings:

    I remember the days when I built my own gaming PCs. Eventually I sold out and bought a Xbox because I just wanted to play games, not build gaming rigs. Serverless is like that.
