All the "ai fairness" bullshit it pretty rich when you consider how it's main use case is to abuse people who are desperate enough to put up with these automated interactions. All the talk about responsible AI and whatnot and how it affects various favored demographics is just a smoke screen for how it's really being used to treat people like crap.
- SonOfKyuss 3y agoI think a big part of it is execs at these companies jumping on the AI hype train looking to cut costs and stay up with the latest trends. They don’t realize and likely don’t care if the end user experience is awful as long as they can claim to be “using AI” in some way. Reminds me of the early days of outsourcing where there was a mad rush to outsource as much as possible to avoid being left out.
- srslack 3y agoYes, just like Yudkowsky and Altman are focusing on bullshit conceptual, theoretical and absurd risks as a smoke screen to what real risks and real harms will and are occurring right now, for regulatory capture and more funding for their bullshit non profit research orgs, so too do most AI ethics researchers. I'd say they're not even hiding how useless they are. Hell, one of the main criticisms of internal PaLM was that it was not progressive enough and didn't toe the Silicon Valley Democrat party line and thus was racist.
