Go hands-on with interactive AI visualizations

Artificial Intelligence systems can recognize our voices, forecast the weather and help decide who gets a loan. Given the increasing ubiquity of AI, it’s important that everyone is able to understand more about it.

Like any system or technology, AI doesn’t always get it right. And understanding why AI systems break is often not easy for people who aren't experts in the field; research results are shared in dense papers filled with formulas.

Of course, people who haven't studied AI still need to be able to ask critical questions about these systems. To help support these kinds of discussions, we've created AI Explorables, a series of interactive explanations of key AI concepts. They’re specifically geared toward non-experts (even though we think and hope that experts will also find them interesting and thought-provoking). 

The first two Explorables walk you through an assessment determining whether an AI system is fair and unbiased. Measuring Fairness weighs the trade-offs involved in building a machine that diagnoses a disease—and lets you try tuning it to be fairer.

In another Explorable, called Hidden Bias, we examine a system that predicts student's grades. Biased by the data it has learned from, the system predicts lower grades for women. Trying to fix this by hiding gender from the system doesn't always work (and, in some cases, can actually increase the bias in the system). 

In the coming months we plan on sharing more Explorables on other fairness issues (how do feedback loops affect the biases of an AI system?), interpretability (why did the AI system decide to do that?) and privacy (what does it mean in the context of an AI system?).

People and AI Research (PAIR) is committed to making machine learning more participatory, and we believe that Explorables will help expand the conversation around machine learning and make it more inclusive. You can find more updates about Explorables and our other work at the (new) PAIR Medium channel.

Interactive theatre and the role of the audience

From shouts of “he’s behind you” at a Christmas pantomime to truly “immersive” productions in which audience members shape the action, audience participation is rife. The radical Belgian theatre company Ontroerend Goed – known for shows that test theatrical as well as moral boundaries – are now staging their latest play, Audience, at London’s Soho Theatre. Sarah Hemming, FT theatre critic, talks to Matthieu Sys, an actor in Audience, Neville Hawcock, the FT’s deputy arts editor, and the critic Suzi Feay about the changing role of the audience. Produced by Griselda Murray Brown

Need inspiration for a new resume? This Super Mario-inspired interactive CV will pump you up

NYC-based Robby Leonardi received overnight fame when he launched an awesome Super Mario-inspired interactive resume website on October 10, 2013. He does graphic design, animation, illustration and even programming, and wanted a unique resume so it would stand out from the crowd. Image Source Imagine a resume where a brightly-dressed cartoon character standing in front of bright blue sky runs across grassy hills, and showcases his talent, like a Mario game? Who won’t love that? Made using HTML, CSS and Javascript, the website uses JQuery and JQuery UI for the animations. Leonardi says he avoided Flash since he wanted his website on Apple mobile devices too. Image Source Since the resume was picked up by social media, Leonardi had won a slew of awards for his work.

Interactive Computer Map

Those of us assisting users in Library West have a wonderful new tool to direct people to open computers. As LeiLani Freund and Stephen Williams shared at the recent cross-divisional meeting, "the new interactive computer map for Library West... shows the public workstations on all floors." You can look at the map and see if computers are free in the third floor Info Commons, if the OPACs are in use in the stacks, and whether the computer has a scanner. Locations of the orange and blue printers are also marked.


This map is LIVE! It refreshes every 60 seconds! I have been using the beta for several weeks to direct users to open computers. When I see queuing for computers on the third floor, I take a look at this map and then walk over to direct users to the open spots. It is great!

Please bookmark the West Computer Map (http://www.uflib.ufl.edu/computers/) at the computers where you are assisting users, so it is easy to get to! And post your ideas for using the map here!
