If the tools and how they operate are secret, then it seems problematic in itself. If the tools make decisions to automate the "steering" of what information is seen then the mechanism could become compromised from within or without couldn't it?
Of course if they're secret only because they're still in the middle of being formulated, that's different...
- SomeStupidPoint 9y agoI would happily discuss it with anyone on HN -- it's not secret techniques (and we agree such are problematic), we're simply not ready for the attention posting publicly on HN would bring. A lot of internal docs use internal jargon, but that's not helpful explaining the idea to others -- so we're in a "productizing" phase and part of that is private conversation with interested parties to (eg) practice/refine explanations. Sorry for "announcement of announcement", but check back 18Q1 if you only want to discuss it on HN.
