So who is going to analyze the automated systems for bias and correct it? If it is impossible to identify and fix unfair bias in humans, presumably it is impossible to fix in the human overseers of this system. This is one area where technology will not save us.
- icebraining 8y agoIt could be a matter of scale - being able to improve the bias in a human doesn't mean you can do so for all 900,000 sworn law enforcement officers in the US (or any other country). On the other hand, you can update 900,000 computer processes in a relatively short time.
- pbhjpbhj 8y agoThe 900k computer processes are unlikely to refuse to follow the updated protocol because it's immoral/fascist/illiberal/undemocratic/whatever too. Cuts both ways it seems.
- icebraining 8y agoI'm not sure the humans are particularly likely to refuse immoral, fascist or undemocratic orders.
- goto11 8y agoMy point exactly. There is no reason to believe the people training and overseeing the AI is more moral or less biased than ordinary human policemen.
