AI Ethics for Designers 🎥
Dear Reader,
You can use generative AI ethically.
To date, I haven't heard a sound approach for dealing with the ethics of Chat GPT, so I was keen to hear this month's meetup, AI Ethics for Designers, by Pete Armitage...especially since Pete is a UX writer.
How would an ethics expert and UX writer think about Chat GPT?

My takeaways:
- Without transparency reports, ethics commitments are hollow
- We should hold AI tools to higher standards than humans
- Anonymize your Chat GPT data with Amnesia
Oppenheimer and Barbie premiere tonight, and somebody finally made a "Barbenheimer" trailer:
Watch the Barbenheimer trailer here
Some people suggest seeing both movies in one night, and there are guides about which order to see them and why. I think it's safe to say this "double-premiere" thing was an organic meme thing because the studios don't appear to have really embraced it. I shudder to think of the marketing execs meeting in board rooms to plan co-premieres at this very moment. I kinda feel like anyone that watches Barbie and Oppenheimer on the same night is going to get a raw glimpse into the belly of the beast that is late-stage capitalism. Which brings me to my next question: are you more of a Barbie or an Oppenheimer person?

Turning Challenges into Confidence: Lessons from Dyslexia By Hannah Baker Dear Reader, When I was seven, I was an expert at pretending. I could "read" picture books without actually decoding the words, using context to fill in the gaps. It wasn’t until my mom, a teacher, noticed I was faking it that I was tested and diagnosed with dyslexia. What followed were years of frustration, advocacy, and learning how to embrace a brain that simply worked differently. While my initial reaction was...
28 Ways to Test an Idea (that is NOT an A/B Test) by Jeff Humble Dear Reader, Today I'm thankful for all the ways you can test that are not A/B tests. Executives and product people think A/B testing is the only thing on the testing menu. 🍽️ For me, it doesn't usually make sense to A/B test. Here's why: A/B tests should happen as late as possible. They might be the most scientific approach, but they require a lot of traffic. Plus, they're usually live and in code, so everything must be...
