The document discusses two topics: whether social deprivation causes crime and the impact of social media on culture. For the first topic, it presents arguments that social deprivation can lead to crime due to lack of opportunities and education, but also acknowledges evidence against a direct link. For social media, it is argued that while it enables political organization and sharing of information, it also facilitates cyberbullying and criminal activities. Both sides of the debates are presented, along with sociological perspectives and examples.
The Dress vs. Ebola: The Effect of Different News Sources on Social Action.Deborah Tuggy
Abstract
Abstract
This study looks at how different types of news sources affects social action. It predicts that infotainment consumption is related inversely with social action, while news consumption is positively correlated with societal action. Findings show that most respondents use both social media and online news as news sources, and that while there is a relationship between different types of news media sources and different types and varying frequencies of social action, other factors such as religiosity, political party, sex, SES and class year have an impact as well. Thus the casual model is a much more complex and complicated one than expected, and it would be fascinating to further explore this phenomenon.

What are the implications of citizens broadcasting the events oflorileemcclatchie
What are the implications of citizens broadcasting the events of a crime as it occurs or of a community tragedy being replayed on millions of phones in the moment? Consider the theories of social control considering one of the most profound modern changes to human society: social media. Then, consider how social media may affect perceptions of crime, both as it occurs and in its aftermath.
In this Discussion, you analyze social control theory in relationship to crime and social media
· Analyze the degree to which social media affects social control in the current event your Instructor has chosen or in the example you contributed.
· Is it practical and/or ethical to attempt to mitigate the effect of social media or media on social control? How could your response change the current event or the example you contributed?
How social media is changing the way people commit crimes and police fight them.
Until the early years of the 21st century, crimes tended to be committed away from the eyes of the majority of society, with traditional media broadcasting information about them often on their own terms.
Ray Surette
writes that the advent of social media in the past decade has led to a new type of ‘performance’ crimes, where people create accounts of their law-breaking through text, images and video, which are then digitally distributed to the public on a large scale. He comments that social media has also opened up new ways of combating crime for the police, who can take advantage of the self-surveillance of those who publicize their crimes on social media.
In 2013, a 16 year old boy in Ottawa, Canada was arrested for making bomb threats to schools across North America. While sadly this type of crime is now not particularly unusual, what is different is the way in which he was caught; his extensive bragging about his anonymous phone calls on Twitter eventually brought the police to his door. Until now, those who commit crimes have preferred to try and hide their actions and identities. However in the 21st century social media world, these surreptitious crimes now compete with
performance crimes like these.
The core elements of contemporary performance crimes are that they are created for
distribution via social media
and involve both willing and unwilling performers. Performance crime can be of two types. The first is a sort of ‘informed consent’ performance where the actors are aware of the production (sometimes recording or filming it themselves) and at least tacitly support its subsequent distribution — in this sense a crime performer is ‘behaving for the camera’ similar to an
actor in a play.
The second involves an uninformed, unwitting performance produced without performer knowledge or acquiescence — here a person is being recorded in a production similar to a
nature documentary.
Social media have caused performances of both types to explode.
These performances are no longer rare events place and time bound to physica ...

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

2. Topic 1 : Does social deprivation
cause crime?
What you would learn:
What is social deprivation.
How it could affect people and cause them to turn to crime.
The different theorists who agree and disagree.
Statistics on the crime rate for those who are socially deprived.
Whether it is social deprivation of emotional deprivation that causes people to commit crime.
Debate:
For:
•People who are socially deprived are more likely to turn to crime in order to satisfy basic living necessities
•We acquire knowledge of what is right and wrong through education
•People feel crime is the only way for their frustrations to be heard
Against:
•Some of the biggest crimes that affect society are committed by huge multinational companies or wealthy
individuals
•As we live in a consumerist society the primary cause of crime is greed or desperation to ‘fit in’
3. For:
Sociologists:
Left Realists –
Left realists acknowledge that relative deprivation can occur at any socioeconomic
level, but that the social structure has left youths in the bottom tier of society without
jobs and without hope for improving their situations.
They form subcultures with other disenfranchised young people in their areas, and
those subcultures may support delinquent and criminal behaviour.
James -
When greater affluence is combined with growing inequality and the rise of what has
been called a winner/loser culture, crime has climbed even more steeply.
Source: Sociological Theories of Criminal Behavior I: The Social-Structural Approach
4. Comparing the level of deprivation with the level of
crime.
Measuring the level of relative deprivation in
the boroughs within London.
From this we can see that the crime rate is
higher in the more deprived areas and lower in
the less deprived.

overview-of-londons-borough/
Source for crime rate

5. Against:
Sociologists:
Lea and Young – poverty or unemployment do not directly cause crime, as despite the high
employment experienced in the economic depression in Britain from the late 1920’s to the
1930’s, crime rates were considerably lower than they were in the boom years of the 1980’s.
Other explanations
Albert Cohen, Richard Cloward and Lloyd Ohlin:
They viewed the most serious and pervasive forms of crime and delinquency as generated
by a combination of complex experiences born of relative deprivation in a highly competitive,
increasingly fragmented social order.

6. Topic 2: The impact of social media
on culture.
What you would learn:
• The diversity and development of social media
• The impact social media has already had.
• The negative and positive effects
• How it has created a global culture.
• Social networking sites (Facebook, YoutTube, Twitter, Tumblr)
Debate:
• Whether social media has had a positive or negative affect on society and culture.
• What are the affects it has already had.
• Could it change the way in which we interact and communicate with each other even
more than it already has.
• Will its impact grow.
• Is there anything we can do stop it ?
7. What is social media?
Social media refers to the means of interactions among people in which they create, share, and exchange information
and ideas in virtual communities and networks.
A social networking service is a platform to build social networks or social relations among people who, for example,
share interests, activities, backgrounds, or real-life connections.
Examples of social
media:
Users upload their own stories a chapter at
a time.
A social networking site.Photo and video sharing site.
A social networking siteA Video sharing site A blogging + social
networking site
Social networking service
8. Pros
Pros: How? Examples:
Social media facilitates political
change.
Social networking sites give social
movements a quick, no-cost method
to organize, disseminate information,
and mobilize people.
The 2011 Egyptian uprising (part of
the Arab Spring), organized largely
via social media, motivated tens of
thousands of protestors for
eighteen days of demonstrations
and, ultimately led to the
resignation of Egyptian President
Mubarak on Feb. 11, 2011.
Social media sites empower
individuals to make social
change and do social good on a
community level.
Social media allows us to be
connected, thus allowing us to share
problems, ideas and communicate
with others to fix these problems.
Nine-year old Scottish student,
Martha Payne, and her blog,
"Never Seconds," and the
formation of "Friends of Never
Seconds" charity to feed children
globally.
Social networking provides
academic research to a wider
audience, allowing many people
access to previously unavailable
educational resources
We are now able to access a variety
of educational resources and
information online making it easier to
do research.
Photos, videos, books, essays,
revision resources, the ability to
contact others.
Social networking sites spread
information faster than any other
media.
Over 50% of people learn about
breaking news on social media. 65%
of traditional media reporters and
editors use sites like Facebook and
LinkedIn for story research, and 52%
use Twitter.
Source: http://socialnetworking.procon.org/
9. Cons:
Cons: How? Examples:
Criminals use social media
to commit and promote
crimes.
Gangs use the sites to recruit younger
members, coordinate violent crimes, and
threaten other gangs.
For example during the London
riots.
Social networking sites
facilitate cyber bullying.
It allows everyone to communicate with
each other meaning that people can
message you privately/publically.
49.5% of students reported being
the victims of bullying online and
33.7% reported committing
bullying behaviour online.
Children may endanger
themselves by not
understanding the public
and viral nature of social
networking sites.
Children might upload statuses/pictures
which can be traced back to them. Also,
as they are so young children are
ignorant to what happens on social
networking sites and what could possibly
happen if you put out too much
ibnformation.
Up to 600 Dutch riot police had to
be called in to break up a teen's
birthday party to which about
30,000 people were accidentally
invited after a Facebook post
thought to be private went viral
(quickly moving on to Twitter and
YouTube as well).
As a result, at least three people
were hurt and 20 people were
arrested for vandalism, looting,
setting cars on fire, and damaging
lampposts.
