What
Since the beginning of this year the University of Vienna encourages its students and employees to use AI chat bots. To do so, they went to bed with the very corporations depriving our societies of energy, devaluing knowledge, and destroying our democracy.
Who
We are a group of students and university workers based in Vienna, who think critically about the University’s AI program and want to do something about it. We oppose higher education making itself dependent on OpenAI et. al. What is left of Uni Wien, when it outsources thinking?
If you feel similarly, we want to hear from you! We currently have a chat group and to think together about how to stop u:ai in its tracks. Write us on Signal if you’d like to join: https://signal.me/#eu/a3EO-zaAbl6K0Da9S7JWPo2As7BcFFzN07Tww3boSgUiSlkeEslI2ZBnyhKXVr7f
