Food For Thought: AI and ethics: Thinking with and beyond the machine

In this FFT (Food For Thought), Geoff Pfeifer and Yunus Telliel will present a view of AI ethics that can be meaningful in a range of courses. They will use visual media as a launching pad for thinking more expansively about AI—especially the material footprint of these machines, the labor that goes into both building and maintaining them, the circulation of data and information, and questions of truth, trust, and accountability. Approaching AI ethics through visual thinking will offer an opportunity to appreciate inquiry and imagination in pedagogical responses to the challenge of machines.
