Bennett, Sara Hendren, Elizabeth Kaziunas, and several others from NYU and Microsoft Research. It builds on discussions from a workshop that brought together disability scholars, AI developers, and human-computer interaction researchers to examine how artificial intelligence systems intersect with disability bias.Dan’s new book Infinite Education is out nowFind Dan on:⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠X⁠⁠BlueSky⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠Newsletter⁠AI-generated content can make mistakes
