I once read a quote from a general or something, making the point that the decisions made by these systems, even when a human is in the loop, are very much algorithmic or formulaic, and therefore taking the human out of the loop, making the system entirely formulaic, should be fine.
Obviously that can't apply to all situations in the same way, but I thought it was an interesting viewpoint at least. I can't remember the article or the speaker though.
- bell-cot 4y agoOTOH - given all the sorts of complete-facepalm mistakes that image recognition systems have been seen to make, and the incentives for an actual wartime enemy to "encourage" your "AI"-run weapon systems to screw up, and the consequences if they are successful...
- alanbernstein 4y agoYeah, absolutely. The quote may have been from before the modern era of DNN-based image recognition, when I suppose that part of the system was always assumed to be a human's responsibility.
