Response 1

Assigned reading: (Dwork and Minow 2022). Distrust of Artificial Intelligence: Sources & Responses from Computer Science & Law. Links to an external site. Daedalus. 

By 5pm on the afternoon before a class with a new reading assignment due, everyone must submit a one-page (double-spaced) critical response to the assigned readings for that day. Please include your name and eid in the response, which must be uploaded as a PDF to this assignment. In some cases, specific questions may be posted along with the readings. But in general, it is free form. Credit will be based on evidence that you have done the readings carefully. Acceptable responses include (but are not limited to):

• Insightful questions;
• Clarification questions about ambiguities;
• Comments about the relation of the reading to previous readings;
• Solutions to problems or exercises posed in the readings;
• Critiques;
• Thoughts on what you would like to learn about in more detail;
• Possible extensions or related studies;
• Thoughts on the paper's importance; and
• Summaries of the most important things you learned.

These responses will be graded on a 10-point scale with a grade of 10 being a typical full-credit grade for a reasonable response. Responses will be due by 5pm the day before the reading is listed. No late responses will be accepted.

This deadline is designed both to encourage you to do the readings before class and also to allow us to incorporate some of your responses into the class discussions.

Students are expected to be present in class having completed the readings and participate actively in the discussions and activities.
