Something you may not know about me if you follow me here is that I love to write fiction. I've posted a few short pieces on Substack this year & have a goal to work towards getting published. Feel free to check it out if you're interested at all :) open.substack.com/pub/isabellek/…

no shit

In case you missed it: Women are less likely to be credited for their scientific contributions than men. It’s true across multiple fields & at all stages, with important repercussions for career progress. #WomenInSTEM #WomenInMedicine #MedTwitter nature.com/articles/s4158…

What comes after breaking into product? Ever wondered what a PM career could look like, beyond landing that first product role? I just published 'Navigating career moves and specialisations as a product manager' - check it out! bootcamp.uxdesign.cc/product-basics…


Check out my newest article on the difference between product managers and project managers (and program managers, product owners, analysts, designers…) bootcamp.uxdesign.cc/product-manage…

Women are 2X as likely to experience adverse side effects from drugs, and in over 90% of cases, women experience more severe side effects. How gender bias in research creates adverse health outcomes: 🧵🧵🧵

Monitoring Twitter buzz of @voxdotcom’ Launch House sexual misconduct expose rn. I’m seeing VERY few men RT or comment or condemn this. Only women in tech and tech reporters. Interesting…

Launch House promised young tech founders community. A Vox investigation reveals allegations of misconduct and sexual assault at the incubator and social club. vox.com/the-goods/2022…

Some might have seen the recent coverage by @rebexxxxa on @launchhouse, of which I was the only person to go on the record with my name and opinion on the matter. Here are my thoughts based on coliving situations, and what I've heard over the past two years. A thread 👇

I believe that tech can create positive, social change. Last week, @beeejar and I were at a loss for words following SCOTUS's overruling of Roe v. Wade. So, we put our heads together to build @postroeco: providing visibility into companies and urging them to take action


Isabelle Kohout 📚 Reposted

With the SCOTUS ruling today, privacy is going to be the defining issue for every tech company for the next decade. Will @Google hand over search and chat history in Texas? Will WhatsApp hand over ultrasound photos exchanged between friends? Will Apple release cycle history?

just thinking today about how the people who have spent the past decade-plus insisting "no one really cares about online privacy" were so often men

Tech Twitter, we need to support startups offering telehealth abortion services. @HeyJaneHealth @carafem @JustThePill Invest, offer to consult if it makes sense, refer talent into these co’s, retweet them! These organizations are going to become really important.

If you’re in crypto and feel wildly passionate about government control of currencies and markets but have “mixed feelings” or “don’t want to get political” on the gov actually taking bodily control of women then you probably don’t stand for anything at all except greed

Little hope that Big Tech will resist theocrats it seems. "Prosecutors have targeted women in the past following a loss of a pregnancy based solely on web browsing data" gizmodo.com/facebook-abort…

It just doesn't stop. Google's new image-making AI, Parti, was fine-tuned on a dataset that's widely known to contain (in the word's of Parti's own designers) "stereotyping, pornography, violence" and "stereotypical representations."

I not infrequently see an argument that goes: "Making ethical NLP (or "AI") systems is too hard because humans haven't agreed on what is ethical/moral/right" This always feels like a cop-out to me, and I think I've put my finger on why: >>


'Stolen Focus' by Johann Hari is an absolute must-read book - it's quickly made my top 5 🔍📚. *But* if you're a busy bee that finds it hard to make time to read - @graubenh and I made a video to summarise the key takeaways for you in 15 minutes 😉 youtube.com/watch?v=hroOZc…

When you're rolling your eyes at how AI ethics people are wet towels, please just realize we have to keep repeating the same things louder and louder because much ML just keeps doing the most obvious dumb things over and over.

huh i wonder who annotated this dataset or what the biases will be like
