You. Hi, I'm Ben Byford. I run the machine ethics podcast. I first came to AI X Design because I was kind of researching all the different types of design toolkits and frameworks and ethical frameworks that people use and that was kind of really exploding at the time, back in 2018. And yeah, a couple of years later I think I found the Aix design community and I've kind of been lurking a bit in the slack. So I've been looking at the toolkit and how it compares to other tools and using bits of it, incorporating into my own design work, as well as looking mostly, to be honest, at the AI X design Library, which has great links to other kind of things that people are doing, other companies doing interesting stuff, jobs and all sorts of stuff which is useful for me because then I can just look in less places for all the kind of things that are happening, especially in design. Because I found that there is a lot of AI ethics or data ethics stuff, but very few places which can help with the design angle. Lots of data, lots of technical stuff, not that much on design of AI systems. So that's why I joined this community and that's why I'm still here and still use the library and communicate on slack using their community and yeah, so love what you guys are doing. Thank you you. Bye.

Hello. Hi, this is Nadia from Ax Design and I'm reaching out to you with a little request. Basically, over the past year, you've either worked with us or participated in a program or somehow been part of the Ax Design community. And we would love to ask you for a small favor, which is that we are trying to both demonstrate and understand our impact and how we create value for people with the work we're doing for a few reasons. One, we need to write a report for the grant that we've received the past year and demonstrate the impact. And instead of, I don't know, listing numbers and vanity metrics, we would love some faces that speak about how AI's Design has brought them any meaning or value in whichever way to their practice or their network or their ideas. Two, it's because we need to apply to other grants, because we're out of funding and we need to figure out how to continue our existence. And so it helps to have real people other than ourselves sharing that the work we do is of value. And third, we're also sort of at a stage of reflection ourselves where we're figuring out what we really want to do and what is most meaningful for us to channel our efforts into. So that's why we're also reflecting on our impact ourselves. So that's why I would love to hear from you a short video about anything you feel comfortable sharing, about how Ax is on the community, the programs, the events have added anything to your life at all. How did you experience working with us or being in the community? In what ways has it helped or supported you, which could honestly be in so many ways. It could be in expanding ideas, like meeting people that you might collaborate with, just learning about interesting people's work or practice or art or anything. Anything that was meaningful to you. That's what I would love to hear about. It can be a long video, short video, anything at all. And also, please let us know either in the video or in a text or whatever. I'm also testing this tool because it's more fun than writing, but please let us know as well if you're comfortable with us using your video and your face, or if you would rather us only use your words in writing but not your face. Or, yeah, please give us consent in a way that you feel comfortable of us using. Yeah, what you said. So, yeah, even if you don't, we would still love to hear from you about the past year and what we've done and how it's been of value to you and your practice and your thoughts and your growth as a person. So, yeah, thank you. I hope to hear from you. And thank you also for being part of this journey so far and contributing in the way that you have and showing up and being in the community with us. So thank you and hope to talk soon. Have a lovely day. Bye.
