These are "some short, sketchy notes about the different ethical layers that we need to consider when engaging with AI." As Casey Fiesler writes, "What's accruing here is not just technical debt, but ethical debt." What follows are short items on the 'ethics of' this and that: large language models and Common Crawl data sets; content moderation and data filtering; anthropomorphising AI; etc. "This doesn't mean that there is no place for AI in education, far from it," writes Lorna Campbell. "Many AI tools are already being used in education, often with beneficial results, captioning systems are just one example."
