Hello, AoIR!

I'm Emily van der Nagel, a lecturer in social media at Monash University in Melbourne, Australia.

I co-authored the book Sex and Social Media, and co-wrote the Manifesto for Sex-Positive Social Media: https://apo.org.au/node/319110

I'm back at work after having a baby last year, and starting a new project on OnlyFans.

I won't be in Philly this year (sad face) but I will be checking out the AoIR Mastodon from afar!

Hi @AoIR ,

I can't make it to Philly, but I'm Ana and I research about children/youth/families and digital media, celebrity/influencers, and digital disconnection.

I'm running a project on disconnection in Portugal.

I'm an avid reader and enjoy music 🎵 #Introduction #AoIR2023

@ZoeGlatt oh I am as well 😅😅

Association of Internet Researchers just published a intro to Mastodon video and is encouraging academics to get active on Mastodon.

6 (!) years ago, @timnitGebru put forward a profound idea for AI research: document your training data. To say she was treated like shit would be putting it lightly. If she had been respected like her male peers were, imagine what a different path AI could have taken.

@timnitGebru

Wow! Incredibly powerful words to think about:

"whose language is used, whose viewpoint and values are privileged, whose agency is extended, and who has the right to frame the 'problem'."

@ZoeGlatt happy birthday! ☺️

From @xeegeek on bird:

“I asked @jaketapper to ask Hinton about his lack of support for @timnitGebru , @mmitchell_ai @Mer__edith and other whistleblowers.

His response is that their concerns were less existential than his and that it’s easier to voice concerns if you leave first.”
