AI is advancing rapidly at the cognitive tasks that make up knowledge work, raising fears among firms, policymakers, and, not least, workers of a “China shock” for white-collar jobs. Neil Thompson will present new research on whether those fears are warranted.

Scientific progress is a key driver of economic growth and prosperity. There is great excitement- but also concerns- about the impacts of AI on science, but so far little data. We provide early insights on this from three data sources: a sample of 15 million Gemini interactions, an inventory of over 2,600 specialized AI models across disciplines, and a survey of over 600 scientists.

A Center for Neural Data Science Seminar Series

As I see it, human-centered artificial intelligence aims not to develop AI that mirrors the entirety of humanity but to create AI that reflects those aspects of humanity that we most admire: qualities like compassion and empathy. The core narratives of the human condition — birth, growth, emotion, aspiration, conflict, and mortality — are all susceptible to corruption within what scholar bell hooks identifies as the "imperialist, white supremacist, capitalist, patriarchy" because they limit and distort our understandings of the world. In my talk, I will discuss the genesis of Being and my endeavor to use a unique combination of ML, dance, critical pedagogy, and mindfulness meditation as a balm to this omnipresent apparatus of domination. I will discuss the obstacles of navigating the GIGO aspects of employing current ML models; the possibilities of archiving Black intellectual and artistic data; as well as my hopes that mindfulness meditation, positive affirmations, and diasporic dance can act as a balm to the stress, anxiety, and depression that results from systemic oppression.
