Super excited for our "Humanising AI Futures: Reimagining data and AI for a future worth wanting" symposium at UTS this Friday. Due to popular demand we will also be streaming the symposium for those out of town lnkd.in/gAuwF9fF

Don't miss the UTS Arts & Social Sciences half day symposium on Humanising AI Futures this Friday! CMT Co-Director Monica and Research Fellow Michael Davis are set to discuss how journalists use AI - register here ⬇️ uts.edu.au/about/faculty-…

People haven't been paying attention to the issue of the detection of AI outputs, this is really important. If we can't accurately detect AI use, then how will any human-only requirement be met in all walks of life? Academia, copyright, etc.

I loved working on this paper with Simon Knight Shibani Antonette & Simon Chambers about how open data (in this case Wikipedia citations) don't always travel well when extracted into new contexts.
