I don't know if this adds or subtracts from your dystopian view, but the act of training the machine would introduce the same reasoning/bias flaws one has.

- thriftwy 9y agoAt least it is repeatable and measurable. But yours isn't. I'm not sure it's dystopian. Maybe human decision making will be considered art. That's an awesome thing, but not necessary what you do in workplace.
- stefie10 9y agoSomeone wise once told me, even after we have strong AI and don't need to program, he will still program, because the process of programming leads to understanding, and he will still want to understand things. The AI might be able to write the program better and faster, but it won't be able to help him gain the understanding he would have gotten from writing the program himself.
- thriftwy 9y agoThis is why you will learn to program, write the program, gain the understanding, train the ML system properly to reproduce your results, and then basically unlearn everything.
- stefie10 9y agoWhy would you unlearn though? Eventually the AI will do all of the above as well. Maybe eventually programming will be like blacksmithing or weaving is today...

- stefie10 9y agoI was thinking more like the Renaissance fair today. You'd visit the fair that recreates a hack-a-thon in the late 90s. At the fair, you'd see the old programmer at his terminal, coding in Perl in an emacs window... instead of turkey legs, you'd have Fritos and Mountain Dew...
- stefie10 9y agoWeapons of Math Destruction is also a good resource on this topic, about how bias is already being encoded in "black box" algorithms that has real effects on things like the availability of credit.
