We also must not forget her portrayal of Albert Nobbs.

Design Justice Network Àr en mÀnniskorÀttsorganisation som utbildar och vÀgleder inom design, inte bara digital sÄdan utan design av alla vÄra samhÀlleliga system. MÄlet Àr att bidra till en vÀrld som Àr tryggare, mer rÀttvis, mer tillgÀnglig och mer hÄllbar. Organisationen har under flera Är arbetat med att utveckla och underhÄlla en lista med designprinciper.
I slutet av 2022 översatte Jonas Söderström och jag dessa till svenska för att göra dem tillgÀngliga för fler. Som alltid nÀr man jobbar med översÀttning sÄ manar ocksÄ sjÀlva processen till oerhörd eftertanke och man kommer vÀldigt nÀra texten och dess innebörd. Jag lÀrde mig mycket av att bara bolla olika tolkningar och ord med Jonas.
HÀr Àr intron till principerna. Klicka gÀrna vidare för att lÀsa dem och övervÀg att prata om dem i era organisationer. De gör sig bÀst som diskussionsunderlag för att reflektera över de vÀgval man gör i utvecklingen av innehÄll, tjÀnster och produkter.
"Design förmedlar sĂ„ mycket av vĂ„r verklighet och har en enorm pĂ„verkan pĂ„ vĂ„ra liv. ĂndĂ„ deltar vĂ€ldigt fĂ„ av oss i designprocesser. De mĂ€nniskor som har minst inflytande över designbeslut â exempelvis beslut om visuell kultur, ny teknik, planering av vĂ„ra samhĂ€llen eller strukturer i vĂ„ra politiska och ekonomiska system â Ă€r dessutom ofta de som pĂ„verkas mest negativt av dem.
RÀttvis design omprövar designprocesser, upphöjer mÀnniskor som normalt Àr marginaliserade av design, och anvÀnder samarbetande, kreativa metoder för att handskas med de djupaste utmaningarna som vÄra samhÀllen stÄr inför."

I realised I should re-watch Hook to see if Robin Williams ever says âCaptain my captainâ. And then I started researching Hook online and now I really have to watch it again, becauseâŠ
There are cameos by Carrie Fisher, Phil Collins and Glenn Close(!). Close plays one of the pirates. And I did not remember any of this. Also she is completely unrecognizable.

Haven't stopped thinking about this and may do a bit of an oldies marathon this weekend. Starting with Robin Williams and Glenn Close in The World According to Garp.
@kev
That is seriously cool. Now I have to start a separate blog just to try this đ
@vinnatron
@LeoR1010 Tack, verkar ha gÄtt bra. Jag vet inte om jag lyckades med uppdateringen för det Àr inget som ser annorlunda ut, men inget gick i alla fall sönder och det Àr ju alltid nÄgot att vara glad för.
Later today Iâm doing a manual update of my SSL certificate for this server and I guess pretty much anything can happen.
Iâve had to do a fresh install of certbot since my first install of Akkoma so I have no idea if all the things will be added to all the right places.
Anyway, now you know in case my instance goes offline later today⊠đ
That update was very smooth. Not even a glitch. Now to try an Akkoma update... my very first đŹ
Vi hĂ„ller oss kvar vid mĂ€nniskors fri- och rĂ€ttigheter i relation till AI â och i mer lösningsorienterad form. Tipset idag handlar om en podd som gĂ„r in pĂ„ hur vi bör tĂ€nka för att reglera alla dessa algoritmer.

Om du har 9 minuter sĂ„ finns denna korta förelĂ€sning med mig om digital tillgĂ€nglighet och AI. Det var vĂ„ren 2020 som jag blev inbjuden att inleda ett temaspĂ„r pĂ„ nĂ€tverksdagen Digin. Ămnet var âHur arbeta tillgĂ€ngligt nĂ€r teknik och digitalisering utvecklas fortare Ă€n lagenâ.
Jag hade sjÀlv glömt hur tydligt jag hÀnvisade till AI i denna, men blev pÄmind hÀromdagen. Kanske kan det bli pÄtagligt för fler hur viktigt det Àr att vi tar rÀtt beslut i vÄr digitalisering idag, för att undvika Àn vÀrre problem imorgon.
Behöver du hjÀlp med tillgÀnglighet, etik, eller risk- och konsekvensanalyser i dina digitaliseringsprojekt sÄ Àr du mer Àn vÀlkommen att höra av dig.
Det hÀr Àr min passion, och jag hoppas det mÀrks.

How much do you use and rely on emojis in different texts you write? Here is a great article on things to look out for related to meaning, display on different devices and services, low-vision and screen readers.

@carl @anders
You should have been tagged in our continued conversation about domain knowledge Carl :)
One thing (of many things*) that makes me wary of using ChatGPT is because I donât know how well I can judge my own autonomy within the use of the system. I feel like I am trapped within someone elseâs imagination of what is important, rational or mathematically likely. And there is a clear risk of trusting quick responses in a desire to move along and get something âdoneâ.
If I for example would use it to trigger new plausible thoughts based on an input I would feel that I have skipped important steps that would either (a) allow me to see weaknesses in the new idea or (b) provide understanding so I can use the idea in the best possible way.
My favorite way of moving my thinking along is these types of conversations with you both and others who like to take their time to look at something from any and every perspective before moving forward too quickly. đ
One area I truly am intrigued by is using these tools to write code. In my mind this could be very useful in moving power away from centralised and monocultural ways of manufacturing software.
*Other concerns of mine of course relate to ethics, energy-use, the expressed values of the organisations providing the tool, colonialist tendencies, power concentration, unaccountability and more. But Iâve written more about this elsewhere :) I am aware that this makes me biased to discredit. I have also realised that these new tools likely have created a need for me to add one or two elements to The Elements of Digital Ethics, related to machine-generated content: https://axbom.com/elements/
@anders
Yes, Iâm also critical of all the familiarity being built into these designs (such as using âIâ, âmeâ and emojis). Or the certainty with which responses are expressed.
@anders This I certainly agree on. I had this in the back of my mind as well as I was writing. I have for example saved all my emails since 1998. And lots of other writing of course as well, including my blog. Being able to source this material using a language model could provide useful. Almost like being able to retrieve data from a diary to make note of shifts in ideas, culture and values over time. So within a limited scope and source material that I am failiar with it makes a lot of sense.
@anders
This is fair, and relatable to telescopes. I still need domain knowledge to understand what it is I am seeing through my telescope. And this is also what give me a healthy amount of skepticism.
And I think this is key to these tools, how important it is to have a certain domain knowledge before using it.
One specific problem could then be described as putting this tool in everyoneâs hands without the domain knowledge to understand or judge what they are seeing in the other end of it.
@anders I think my primary tools for augmenting my own thinking are sketching, note-taking and writing (and some tools similar to what you describe that can help me get an overview of my own notes and sketches). And in some sense reading books. I believe my inability to trust the output of ChatGPT, and the lack of transparency on what it is trained on, makes it difficult for me to find a good use for it. đŹ
I do understand the idea of using it for critical thinking and generating statements that are to be judged and reasoned around, as the following post explains, but I rarely see this type of critical thinking even in examples provided by peers in my industry â using it in workplaces. The amount of trust many people place in the output, and use as conclusions for analytical work, is a problemâŠ
https://www.cambridge.org/elt/blog/2023/03/30/enhancing-learners-critical-thinking-skills-with-ai-assisted-technology/
When we augment with a telescope it is because we have recognised a need to see further into space. When we augment with a hearing aid or speaker, it is because we have recognised a need to hear better. And we can immediately validate if they work for this purpose.
It is not entirely clear to me what part of human thinking is augmented with ChatGPT and how I can judge if that is actually what is happening. i.e. I woud like to see the need more clearly described, and I would like to see the result of that need being met more clearly validated. Can everyone think better with a tool like ChatGPT, in the same way everyone with vision can see further with a telescope?
For me a microscope and a hearing aid can eliminate misunderstanding, as they help me see or hear more clearly. Meanwhile a tool like ChatGPT can *boost* misunderstanding as it is a statistical representation of a source that is unclear to me, and evidentially biased.
I know you didnât say ChatGPT itself was augmenting thinking, as you used the word catayst. But I did find it interesting to think of it as an augmentation tool, where ChatGPT clearly can be used to augment all the wrong things (disinformation, bias, depression, etc).
@Loukas I totally get you.
@Loukas It makes me sad thinking of all the people who fall into the trap of believing that efficiency will bring them happiness.
I think what scares me the most about the âAIâ tools that have been hyped over the past few months is that they all appear to emphasise the elimination of thinking.
All while manufacturers falsely claim that this is what is going on inside the machine.
As if the time and effort between information retrieval and making sense of it is inconsequential to the growth of the human mind and the validity of the end result.
As if thinking is a nuisance.

Was encouraged by my son (21yo) to watch RRR with him and I have to say I absolutely loved it. Epic story with fairytale elements, fantasy action and lots of entertaining dancing and singing as well. And of course a strong anti-imperialist message. The 3 hours never got boring.
Great ending to an emotional day with some real-life dramatic elements. More on that for another day.
