WhatsApp’s AI shows gun-wielding children when prompted with ‘Palestine’
(www.theguardian.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
It's not about "adding code" or any other bullshit.
AI today is trained on datasets (that's about it), the choice of datasets can be complicated, but that's where you moderate and select. There is nothing "AI learns of its own" sci-fi dream going on.
Sigh.
Really wish the term virtual intelligence was used (literally what it is)
We should honestly just take the word intelligence out of the mix for rn bc these machines aren't "intelligent". They can't do things like critically think, form its own opinions, etc. They're just super efficient data aggregation at the end of the day, whether or not they're based on the human brain.
We're so far off from 'intelligent' machine learning that I think it really throws off how people think about it to call it intelligence of any sort.
LLMs can reason about information. It's fine to call them intelligent systems.
