These systems often fail to accurately interpret... The Dark Side of Dataset Scaling: Evaluating Racial Classification in Multimodal Models Scale the model, scale the data, scale the GPU farms is the reigning sentiment in the world of generative AI today. While model scaling has been extensively studied, data scaling and its downstream impacts on model performance remain under-explored. This is particularly important in the context of... Machine Learning Data Practices through a Data Curation Lens: An Evaluation Framework Studies of dataset development in machine learning call for greater attention to the data practices that make model development possible and shape its outcomes. Many argue that the adoption of theory and practices from archives and data curation fields can support greater fairness, accountability...
