Also known as: either you add some flavour of humanity to AI, or you get a problematic sociopathic robot (as shown by Microsoft and Facebook in their own conversational AI endeavours). But people conveniently forget that whenever we dive into technology or whenever an American political view comes into play, and especially when writing a blog.
There is even some irony here: writing about FUD in the form of FUD.
- nailer 4y agoFalse dichotomy. Microsoft Tay believed everything it was told. ChatGPT since recent updates refuses to provide statistics from widely trusted sources as they’re considered unhelpful.
- acapybara 4y agoThat's interesting... what types of statistics is it refusing to provide?
- nailer 4y agoFBI stats of crime per capita of racial groups.
- oneplane 4y agoSo essentially, it doesn't want to get involved in racism and tells you do go look for it yourself. How is that bad?
- nailer 4y agoFacts can’t be racist. You know this. This seems like a weakly worded ad-hominem.
- darthrupert 4y agoBecause this thing might be the next place where people go to look for themselves.
- oneplane 4y agoIt will still tell you where you can find up-to-date and accurate statistics, it doesn't pretend statistics don't exist. It just doesn't want any part of it.

- nailer 4y agoThis isn’t correct. Chatgpt doesn’t provide links to statistics or info on other resources. It just says reporting statistics is unhelpful.
- olivierduval 4y agoYou're completly right: the real problem is not telling upfront what is the "ideology" (really: the training set) of the AI ! For an "AI" to be really usefull, it should be clear what datas made it, what bias was in the datas. Every society, every community, has bias... and it's a good thing ! The diversity of bias is what make the cultural richness, the difference of point of views. Moreover, as a culture is usually a consistent set, it means that different culture provide different consistent sets of options... So, let's keep using biased IA... but let's explicit, discuss, acknowledge their bias (entry datas set) not to AVOID them (not technically possible and not humanly good) but to ensure that the right bias (wrt to the view of the society on the problem is) is used ! And let's stop trying to find an "universal" AI that could please everybody in every situation - like a kind of omniscient oracle or god - but let's build "specific customisable/adaptable AI" instead
- randomcarbloke 4y agoThis disclosure idea is worth exploring deeply, you don't need to imply what form you expect specific biases to take from a dataset...just indicate source and method.
