Artificial intelligence in sport. Fast, but not too fast
Artificial intelligence has revolutionised the world of sport, and is influencing training, refereeing, sports medicine, and betting. Algorithms are now crucial for identifying and selecting sporting talent, but it often happens that athletes' data are used without their consent, potentially creating disadvantages for them. In addition, the use of AI in refereeing and strategic decision-making…

Does artificial intelligence present an opportunity or further obstacle to overcoming gender stereotypes?
Artificial Intelligence (AI) could both overcome and perpetuate gender stereotypes. Studies show that many AI systems are inherently influenced by gender and racial biases, reflecting the training data. Negative experiences on social media such as cyberstalking and revenge porn highlight malicious use of these technologies. The presence of virtual assistants with female voices and names…

Trustworthy artificial intelligence
The increasing pervasiveness of artificial intelligence (AI) elicits contrasting reactions of fear and hope. It is necessary to develop solid ethics for AI that avoids both technological fatalism and uncritical trust. Human ethical principles such as beneficence, non-maleficence, autonomy, and justice are fundamental, but they may not be sufficient to address the unique challenges of…

What will happen to work? Automation, AI and Luddism
Luddism, both historic and modern, is about workers' resistance to automation that threatens the dignity of their work. Just like nineteenth-century Luddites destroyed farm machinery as a protest against industrialisation, modern "Luddites" in San Francisco have sabotaged driverless taxis. Technology can eliminate repetitive work, but it cannot reproduce the complexity of human work. This highlights…

Intelligenza Artificiale e Colonialismo: Il Nuovo Volto dell’Estrazione Digitale
Nel panorama tecnologico in rapida evoluzione, un recente articolo porta alla luce una realtà inquietante: le radici coloniali dell’intelligenza artificiale (AI). James Muldoon e Boxi A Wu, ricercatori dell’University of Essex e dell’University of Oxford, esplorano la “colonial matrix of power” nascosta dietro lo sviluppo dell’AI, un concetto originariamente sviluppato da Aníbal Quijano. Gli autori…

L’Intrinseca Politicità dei Sistemi di IA: Analisi Critica di Daniela Tafani
In un’epoca dominata dall’ascesa dell’intelligenza artificiale, Daniela Tafani del Dipartimento di Scienze politiche dell’Università di Pisa ci invita a un’indagine approfondita sulle proprietà politiche degli AI systems. Il suo recente lavoro, “Do AI systems have politics? Predictive optimisation as a move away from liberalism, the rule of law and democracy”, è un campanello d’allarme che…

L’IA generativa e il declino delle comunità online: sfide e soluzioni
L’IA generativa ha un’impatto negativo sulle comunità online di conoscenza, come ad esempio su StackOverflow.com, la più grande comunità online di conoscenza al mondo per sviluppatori software, dove è stata registrata una riduzione approssimativa del 12% di visite medie giornaliere. Attraverso la riduzione della partecipazione degli utenti, è stato osservato un declino nella qualità delle…
