Given some of the conversations we’ve been overhearing in the last two days, we’d love to create a snapshot / record of people’s conversations and thoughts on AI throughout this workshop!

Prompt: What are your outlier opinions about AI? i.e. an opinion you have about AI (re: institutions, power balance, regulation, next steps) that you think would be least common / most under-appreciated by others here?

Please come back and vote throughout the day as statements come in!

Your Outlier Opinions on AI

  • We are using Pol.is, an open-source software tool for online deliberation and participatory decision-making. It uses machine learning algorithms to facilitate large-scale, online discussions and surveys based on what people say in their own words.

    Your votes are gathered entirely anonymously, but when you return to this page we will remember your randomly-generated visitor ID, so you won’t be re-voting on statements you’ve already seen.

    When you submit a statement, it will show up in others’ interfaces for them to vote on.

    A similar process has been used by millions of people in Taiwan to adjudicate thorny issues, and the software is designed to surface consensus statements, divisive statements, and opinion clusters. We are using this to create a map of the opinion space (you can see an initial report here). This is not intended to be, and cannot be, fully representative.

Please add your views as statements and vote on others’ statements below. 

Tip: If you almost agree with someone’s statement but not quite, please rewrite it so that you agree with it and submit that.
