New paper 🚨

Interdisciplinarity is widely celebrated as an unqualified good in debates about AI. In this new paper, I raise a provocation: what if it's actually reinforcing the very problems it seeks to solve?

And that's a wrap πŸ₯³

I'm grateful for my time at @schoolofppls.bsky.social and the CTMF. Even more than that, I am grateful for my family and partner who have always had my back and without whom I'm not sure I could've done it!

Thanks to everyone for making those 4 years as enjoyable as they were!
