“Several studies show that facial recognition systems regularly misidentify Black and brown people, posing a particular threat to communities that have already been disproportionately targeted by police and surveillance systems.”
I feel like AI is the dotcom bubble and the app bubble all over again. Expect a market crash as the market traders realise that most of these companies won't make any money.
Oh, and who's getting most hurt by that crash? Definitely not the richest people, as they'll get bailouts.
@Reina The rich often benefit a lot from economic downturns because it’s another opportunity to exploit. An excuse to cut costs, an excuse to layoff workers, an excuse to pay less, ect ect ect. As I keep saying: #recessionsAreAChoice that the largest mega corporations could collectively avoid.
I think #AI will be a different beast. #ArtificialIntelligence along with other #disruptiveTechnology (like 3d printing) is likely 2 contribute 2 an unemployment crisis in the coming decades.
Just ran into this entertaining and accessible explainer by #LiveOverflow about why large language models like #ChatGPT sometimes 'misbehave' and present output to the user that they're not supposed to see.
Long story short: both the system's 'filters' and the user input are presented as one big prompt to the model, which means you can influence the filters.
TED talk from computer scientist Yejin Choi delves into where AI shines, and where it falls short.
It's an interesting presentation that highlights some limitations of AI language models and gives some food for thought on how they could improve and evolve by trying to understand human perspective, values and "common sense".
She also makes a case for the democratization of AI and developing open AI models.
The #AI Act is a flagship legislative proposal to regulate #ArtificialIntelligence based on its potential to cause harm. The #European Parliament is now inching toward formalising its position on the file, after #EU lawmakers reached a political agreement on Thursday (27 April). #machinelearning#llm#LLMs
Should companies be responsible for taking an ethical approach to developing technology, such as ensuring it does not increase inequality?
I would have thought "of course" they are responsible. But it appears that some think that we should develop technology and leave the consequences to governments to sort out! #AI#AGI#LLM#ArtificalIntelligence
Amen to this idea: "Let's have cross-disciplinary conversations so more people can spot these problems."
In Sydney today a symposium will be held where experts from a wide variety of disciplines such as economics and arts will discuss how to reduce the risks of #AI - ChatLLM23
