This is probably the best and most relevant argument. But still - aren't the companies still pulling the strings? If FB wanted to prioritize things that got people outside and interacting with their community (and off FB), could they? It seems like it's always the humans picking the ethical parameters, not the AI.
- wonderwonder 5y agoI am not really sure. I cant think these things were initially built with some of the things that have surfaced in mind. It was likely pretty hard to predict years ago where things would go. Even if they could though, would they have changed things if they knew how effective they were going to be and how much money they would generate? I have to think that while they can tweak things they are not completely dismantling and rebuilding models as they take a long time to train. Would probably also be hard to program for ethics I think and be 100% accurate. With that said I don't have much ML experience so I could be completely off base.
