Exciting news! After 7 years of analyzing, exposing, and holding algorithmic power to account, the Tracking Exposed collective has closed its doors. But we're back under a new name & organization, AI Forensics, and with renewed dedication to uncovering the harms of algorithms.
In a time of algos, control is key. If you have a YouTube channel, CHOOSE what recommended videos appear for your audience. @YouChooseAI lets account owners choose what appears as recommended videos on their account. Awesome stuff. #RightsCon2022 — youchoose.ai
Check out why they do this:
“The vast majority of the content we watch on YouTube is recommended by one of YouTube's algorithm. Though, these systems are not neutral, and they are optimised for the platform's profit, not your best interest.”
@YouChooseAI
Super interesting that startups such as @YouChooseAI already use interoperability, which is regulated as an necessary obligation for gatekeepers (towards business users) in the DMA. Data-sharing is sometimes very useful!
Platforms use secret recommendation algorithms to decide whether a creator's works reach their subscribers. Tools like Tracking Exposed reverse-engineer the algorithms, exposing the secret rules creators are expected to follow, but not allowed to know.

"Creators only get to eat and pay the rent if they please the algorithm." It shouldn't be this way, which is why we're building @YouChooseAI
For @EFF, @doctorow explains how we use adversarial interoperability to make opaque algorithms transparent:

Their Youchoose browser plugin lets audiences bypass the Youtube recommender and get suggestions of videos from multiple video services, whcih users can understand and reconfigure:

Rounding up webinar on #algorithmsforpeople with messages of hope to reimagine our online information eco-system! Yes, every paradigm shift comes with unexpected side-effects & new challenges, but also huge opportunities. Thanks everyone!
I will join a discussion on Alternative Recommender Systems, including with EU Member of Parliament @kimvsparrentak@YouChooseAI is an attempt to pioneer this concept, but provisions are needed in the #DSA to allow these user-empowering initiatives to thrive
Join us on Thursday!
