The Master’s Tools Will Never Dismantle the Master’s House was my first reading for this class and it really spoke to me. is there truly any recourse for the damage that has been done? can we at least use tech as harm reduction? what about ppl who dont have access to internet or phones?

i still personally feel burnt tf out. i need a year+ long detox of pretending like computers dont exist. in the meantime i will continue to disassociate while using ai at work until i inevitably get laid off and use it as a way to do something that doesn't involve ai at all. i'm like soooo tired of being part of the business/capitalist hellscape that just exploits people. being in this class gave me hope that people who are genuinely passionate about technology are using it to help others and that's awesome. hopefully the anti-flock, pro-awareness app i'm helping work on will help me feel more energized and connected

re: the library of missing data sets - do we necessarily want to collect data? in some examples (such as sexual assault reporting, facial recognition, etc.) privacy is really important. data is biased and then used harshly against those who aren't in the data collection. will including those not in the data set help with the bias? privacy / ethical & non-biased data collection / publicly accessible
