It makes more sense when you realize that unnatural and artificial are societal words akin to immoral or bad. Within that context they are perfectly crumulent words, it's only when we wish to have them be objective outside humanity tha

You aren't wrong, but we can't deny that internet changed the world, changed industries, and changed society. It's not all positive, but it's become a fundamental building block of mankind at this point.

It's roughly in the same spot as reliably detecting if you have permission to use the image for your data training set in the first place. If it doesn't matter, then neither does the poisoning matter.

You are 100% correct about AI today, however, I feel people are way too fast at making a final assessment of what AI can and cannot do as if it was set in stone. People seem so sure that the problems AI are having now are just intrinsic and

It's actually a pretty tricky situation, often called the Paradox of Tolerance. Presumably you'd not be in favor of censoring somebody merely for disagreeing with you on a political topic. But what if those political views and sta
