From the larger context:
> The corporation tries to program the chatbot to never say offensive things. Then the journalists try to trick the chatbot into saying “I love racism”. When they inevitably succeed, they publish an article titled “AI LOVES RACISM!”
Except journalists are behaving like white-hat hackers here- these will get abused by someone, better to have it out in the open earlier, like mathematicians breaking your bad crypto and telling you about it.
- bakugo 4y agoNo, journalists are not behaving like white-hat hackers, and no, this is not comparable to bad crypto in any way. Bad crypto is dangerous and can result in real harm to real people, a chat bot stating real facts about the world that make you uncomfortable cannot. The journalists just want to clickbait and perpetuate their endless culture war, nothing else.
- quantified 4y agoChat bots being tricked into saying untrue things that make people uncomfortable of course can't do any damage? No more than real humans can? Comet Ping-Pong didn't happen, that was a fantasy, right?
