Here we are, the final round… I think it’s criminal that The Thomas Thorne Affair isn’t up there instead of Redding Weddy… but nonetheless, (for the final time) may the best episode win!!! :)

Twas the weeks before Christmas And Santa was busy His list was so long It was making him dizzy

There are too many children List checking can’t scale If I do this by hand I will certainly fail!

But one of his elves Had a brilliant idea What if we automate Christmas this year!

There always are kids Who are naughty or nice Every year for millennia You’ve checked that list twice

Every child there’s been From Aaron to Zeta We can build an AI Because we have the data

Now, Santa is old Didn’t quite understand But he trusts his elves So he okayed the plan

First the elves cleaned the data They were very precise To determine the patterns In the naughty and nice

Gender and parents And address and race Grades and faves Really, every trace

Billions of children Made into numbers AI makes predictions While each child slumbers

The goal of the model (Just to be clear) Given these patterns Who’s naughty this year?

They held back a sample So that they could test And the model? Not bad. Ninety percent, at their best

So they brought it to Santa And said, never fear! Machine learning Will save Christmas this year

Santa pulled out his list For his own kind of test Hours later he went From impressed to distressed

We can’t use this, he said You must realize the stakes There also are patterns In errors this makes

Like take little Aaron Do you think it’s fair That in numbers he’s ‘like’ Naughty kids over there?

We’re also assuming Our own perfect past Have we made mistakes? We at least have to ask

Because look at this insight The data supplies us Some elves on these shelves Might have unconscious bias!

And you all made choices Which features to add Are you sure this was fair? And the elves looked quite sad

They had to admit They’d bought into the hype But those errors did matter And Santa was right

For now, Santa said I’ll go back to my list Some things need a human To ensure they’re not missed

I do think tech could help us You didn’t mean to abuse it But with any great power Be careful how you use it

So next Santa hired An AI ethics team We moved too fast, he said We don’t want to break things.

A few years ago someone asked me to explain AI bias to them like they were five, and so I thought of something five-year-olds care about: Santa. It also happens that the idea of using AI to predict who will land on the naughty or nice list also serves as a metaphor for biased recidivism algorithms used in the criminal justice system. (And I’ve also always thought that elf on the shelf is a good way to teach your kids about surveillance…)

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night, where you can dream of real people learning the same lesson that Santa did. :)

Oh hey I found something else, this was my first shot at making patterns with color in crochet:

I made a BTS Potholder for a friend. Shoulda written down the pattern, but I was too smug about figuring out how to make a trapezoid out of pixel points to think about the future

Japanese children, culturally accustomed to waiting for food, were able to hold out for a food reward, but not for a present. American schoolchildren, on the other hand, used to waiting to unwrap gifts under a Christmas tree or at a birthday party, were able to wait for a gift, but not food.

Carolyn Y. Johnson recounting Yuko Munakata’s findings. Munakata is a developmental psychologist at the University of California at Davis and conducted a variation on the Marshmallow Test that showed that children’s ability to wait for a treat wasn’t like a muscle that was strong or weak, but changed markedly depending on the context. (via Studies on children’s cognitive skills reveal biases in research, scientists say - The Washington Post)

Oh come on! Forget biased journalism, this is straight-up false. The area was called Judea when Jesus was born; the Romans didn't rename it "Palestine" until 200 years later. Palestinians didn't exist then. Period.
