I think American techbros, who can't answer if it's okay for people to be racist, probably shouldn't be delivering AI platforms that speak for people without supervision. Just a thought.
@GossiTheDog They would claim that since the choice is done by an algo, it is math and therefore not racist/sexist.
@rrb
They would be fucking idiots who don't understand how their own tools work at even the most basic level if they said that.
@GossiTheDog
I wish @rrb was joking, but that's word for word the justification used by LeCun as to why algorithms can't be racist circa 2018-2019, on Twitter.
@andrei_chiffa @dymaxion @GossiTheDog To be clear, I was being sarcastic, but that is how they think, unfortunately.
Also, note that the discrimination is NOT accidental. Has anyone else noted that the first people to be laid off was the ethical AI teams?
If ML discriminated against billionaires, I bet they would be the last to go.
