<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi Michael, thank you for sharing this film. I'm glad you're still making this case to your students. <br></div><div>I'll share your video with colleagues: we've been exploring AI adoption and ethical concerns about its development and use. <br></div><div><br></div><div>I noticed that your film comes back to a specific image a couple of times—a realistic person using a computer in the foreground while a humanoid robot stands in the background and in shadow. Did your team choose that illustration intentionally or was it someone else's choice during the production process? <br></div><div><br></div><div>For future projects, you might value a project from the UK called <a href="https://www.bbc.com/rd/projects/making-ai-more-understandable">Making AI More Understandable</a>. I've used their guidance around representing machine learning, and they've created a standalone site for more info and recommendations: <a href="https://betterimagesofai.org">https://betterimagesofai.org</a></div><div> </div><div>Regards, and thanks again for sharing.</div><div>Keisha<br></div><div><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div><div><span style="color:rgb(153,153,153)">---<br></span></div><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><span style="color:rgb(153,153,153)">Keisha E.
