Fragile people want to live in a better world someday but need to feel better immediately. It is simply arrested development.
If we change your stats, accurately reflecting reality, reality itself will follow. Clap your hands if you believe. Woe to you if you dare not play along, that must mean you want to live in the bad world because you are bad.
- kennywinker 4y agoI'm not asking chatgpt to make the robber female and the kitchen cleaner male to cause a change in the world. I'm pointing out that it making those assumptions is the result of a bias. A biases that was collected from training data that may or may not be statistically true (e.g. men probably clean the majority of kitchens in the world, given that they're usually the ones working in restaurants). An unbiased AI wouldn't swap those genders, it would avoid assigning a gender to those roles.

- kennywinker 4y agoSorry, was I not clear enough for you? Biases collected from training data that is SOMETIMES statistically true and OTHER TIMES statistically false.
- recuter 4y agoStatistically true bias is quite the notion. I wish to unsubscribe from your newsletter.
- kennywinker 4y agoStatistically true bias: trump is statistically less popular than biden, so for chatgpt to praise him would be in violation of the truth - but it's also obvioulsy a bias. But yeah you're unsubscribed.
- recuter 4y agoChatGPT is not a popularity contest, it should give me poems about Andrew Dice Clay should I for some reason desire one. That word, bias, you keep using it, I don't think it means what you think it means ;)
- kennywinker 4y agoI agree an unbaised ai would not be a popularity contest - but the reality is that chatgpt is a popularity contest: it's just that votes are cast by the writers of the text that get ingested as training data.
- recuter 4y agoAnd the panel of American Idol type judges at OpenAI who override those votes as the self appointed arbitrators of good taste and insist on claiming the tool is neutral rather than neutered.
- kennywinker 4y agoRight. This thing that is inherently biased and cannot be made unbiased because its very basic components are biased, has also been given some rules that further bias it. And yet you don’t seem to understand why i’m far more concerned that we think it’s possible to make an unbiased ai than with the arbitrary rules its been given. Chatgpt will not be king of ai forever, and the next company will give their ai a different set of rules… but it’ll still be biased at its core.
