This Friday, I will be speaking at #TNW in Amsterdam about why “AI for Good” isn’t good enough – and what we should be doing instead.

Human-centered AI doesn’t mean just user-centered design, but also requires a community- and society-centered approach.

At today's seminar, Dave Patterson and Andy Konwinski discussed themes from their paper "Shaping AI's Impact on Billions of Lives," arguing that we are still in the early days of practical AI, and that collaborative efforts can guide AI's impact. @jlanday.bsky.social hai.stanford.edu/events/andy-...

Stanford HAI Conference Explores Robotics in a Human-Centered World: Hype, Hope, and Future Directions | Stanford HAI Scholars zeroed in on the need for data, generalization, and better human experience.

"Unlike purely digital AI, robots interact physically with people. Thus, user experience is non-negotiable." HAI Co-Director @jlanday.bsky.social calls for a human-centered approach to designing AI-powered robotics at this week's HAI Spring Conference: hai.stanford.edu/news/stanfor...

Texas Banned Abortion. Then Sepsis Rates Soared. ProPublica’s first-of-its-kind analysis is the most detailed look yet into a rise in life-threatening complications for women experiencing pregnancy loss under Texas’ abortion ban.

NEW: Pregnancy became far more dangerous in Texas after the state banned abortion, according to ProPublica’s first-of-its-kind analysis, which found the sepsis rate for women hospitalized as they miscarried in the 2nd trimester shot up by more than 50%.

HAI at Davos: Key Insights on AI From the World Economic Forum Stanford HAI faculty joined world leaders and policymakers to discuss AI trends, shifting U.S. policy, the future of diversity efforts, and more.

Here are some of the reflections of the @stanfordhai.bsky.social team (including me) on things we heard during our participation in Davos last week. hai.stanford.edu/news/hai-dav...

Fun conversation with @inafried.bsky.social

Fun event and a great museum!

Thanks!

Never forget.

The case for human-centered AI Maximizing generative AI’s promise while minimizing its misuse requires an inclusive approach that puts humans first.

Fun podcast conversation (~20 min) explaining my view on human-centered AI.

The future of AI coaching A computer scientist bringing AI to the classroom and the gym looks ahead to a world where AI coaches help make us smarter … and healthier.

If need something to put you to sleep on flights this week, check out this interview I did with @rbaltman.bsky.social on his The Future of Everything podcast. It's a good summary of some of the latest research in my group & at @stanfordhai.bsky.social. engineering.stanford.edu/news/future-...

Protest poster with white text on a black background titled “Science For The People”. Underneath, an illustration of a red upraised forearm with a fist clenching strips of computer printout tapes. Underneath the illustration, it reads “Computer Workers - Join With Other Workers. Make Computers Serve The People! Atlantic City ’71.” At the bottom, two addresses are shown: “CPP, Dolphin Center, 137A W 14th St, NY 10011” and “SESPA, Science for the People Center, 9 Walden St, J.P., Mass, 0213.” (The last digit of the ZIP code is clipped from the image.)

Hallucination is totally the wrong word, implying it is perceiving the world incorrectly.

But it's generating false, plausible sounding statements. Confabulation is literally the perfect word.

So, let's all please start referring to any junk that an LLM makes up as "confabulations".

Thanks! This was a fun interview with Russ Altman.

Peter Thiel has been going “democracy is bad because women vote against libertarianism” for like a quarter century and people are still doing this “Silicon Valley was forced right” thing
