I'm hoping someone can help me find an article I saw a few months ago and absolutely can't track down again. It was ~10 years old, and some sort of blog post. It had a very detailed (20+ items) list of questions to ask yourself about the impact on others of introducing new technology.
My company has realized that generative AI is here to stay, and put a pause on it's use until we can figure out how to use it safely and responsibly. That post was basically a giant list of all the things I'd like my leadership to be thinking about, and I'd like to share it.
Damned if I can find it again though. I had it favorited on another Mastodon instance that has since shut down.
@KyleStewart Impact on others inside or outside the company? I used to teach a course on ethics in engineering that had a lot of readings about the latter. So while I don't know the blog post I could send something if you are interested in that.
@KyleStewart what was the article?
I just had a look and to be honest, I don't have that much coherent material to share. Mostly textbook chapters, my own notes and tutorial outlines about readings that were often a bit left-field (like about how the Amish choose what new technology to adopt - https://www.wired.com/1999/01/amish/). Maybe that was why it was such a good course, most of the integration happened in our heads.
@KyleStewart Thank you, that's very worth reading at length.
