Data Feminism
100

According to IBM, this type of AI is also known as Weak AI, is the only type of AI that exists today. Any other form of AI is theoretical. It can be trained to perform a single or narrow task, often far faster and better than a human mind can. 

What is Narrow AI?

100

This part of the research process involves the use of templates from APA or MLA

What is citing (cite sources, etc)?

100

These people were known for breaking looms in early 1800s England.

Who were the Luddites?

100

This is the technology that enables computers and machines to simulate human learning, comprehension, problem solving, decision making, creativity and autonomy. 

What is artificial intelligence?

100

Data feminism begins by analyzing how this operates in the world.

What is power?

200

This type of AI is still theoretical, but can use previous learnings and skills to accomplish new tasks in a different context without the need for human beings to train the underlying models. This ability allows it to learn and perform any intellectual task that a human being can. 

What is AGI (Artificial General Intelligence)?

200

This part of the research process tends to rely on mnemonic devices so that people can easily remember what they need to be ding when they look at sources

What is evaluating? (also evaluation, evaluate sources, etc)

200
She is known for writing computer programming before we had modern computers.

Who was Ada King, Countess of Lovelace?

200

This type of AI model is used most often to replicate and generate human language

What is a Large Language Model (LLM)?

200

Daily Double

Data feminism argues that exposing this can bring to light the significant human efforts required by our automated systems.

What is the concept of invisible labor?

300

This type of Narrow AI can perform routine, repetitive tasks that involve materials handling, assembly and quality inspections

What are robotics?

300

This step of the research process involves the following: 

Start with an idea you are interested in. 

Find and read some background information to get a better understanding, then use what you have learned to search for more specific information. Refine (broaden, narrow, refocus, or change), and try another search. 

What is defining my research topic (also will accept identifying and developing a research topic)?

300

This person is the CEO of OpenAI

Who is Sam Altman?

300

This type of LLM tends to get used in library databases in order to ensure that the model is only generating answers from a specific set of data.

What is a RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation)?

300

This is the 4th principle of data feminism and AI, which sees a false binary between reason and ---

What is emotion and embodiment?

400

Daily Double

Applications of this type of Narrow AI include: 

  • Image recognition and classification
  • Object detection
  • Object tracking
  • Facial recognition
  • Content-based image retrieval

What is computer vision?

400

This is an organized combination of keywords, phrases, subject headings, and limiters/filters used to search a database.

What is a search strategy? (will accept search string)

400

This person is the CEO of NVIDIA, an AI-chip making company.

Who is Jensen Huang?

400

This type of model has both a forward diffusion process and a reverse sampling process, and tends to be used most often for image generation.

What is a diffusion model? (Also acceptable: diffusion-based generative models, score-based generative models)

400

Data feminism says that by challenging this, we can also challenge other hierarchical and empirically wrong classification systems. 

What is the male/female binary?

500

According to IBM, this type of theoretical AI would think, reason, learn, make judgements and possess cognitive abilities that surpass those of human beings.


What is Super AI?

500

This is all of the existing publications, conferences, online discussions, and other discourse surrounding a particular topic. Most often when we talk about it, we’re referring to published materials like books, essay collections, or journal articles. The goal is to advance the world's collective knowledge about a subject.

What is "scholarly conversation"?

500

This person was fired from Google for their paper "On Stochastic Parrots"

Who is Timnit Gebru or Margaret Mitchell?

500

This type of AIs are trained on sequenced data to generate extended sequences of content (such as words in sentences, shapes in an image, frames of a video or commands in software code) and are at the core of most of today’s headline-making generative AI tools 

What are transformers?

500

This is when data teams are primarily composed of people from dominant groups and their perspectives come to exert outsized influence on the decisions being made—to the exclusion of other identities and perspectives. This is not usually intentional.

What is privilege (or privilege hazard)?
