Title: Technologists and Ocean Governance
Dr. Ota will speak on his experience leading ocean governance
initiatives, and the successes and pitfalls of the ways technologists
engage in this space. As a jumping-off point, we'll visit a recent
high-profile PNAS paper that claims to identify fishing vessels with a
high risk of labor abuse using AI. Yoshi and a team of other authors
published a rebuttal to the paper, doubting the veracity of its claims
and also worrying about the potential to mislead policy.
