    No ethics based lapses.

      Then the only recourse is to create ethical constraints. Challenging, but possible, even with current LLM technology.

    Folks expect humans to be unethical, and [at least try to] put in checks and balances for it. When it’s an AI, on the other hand, lots of folks are too computer-illiterate to treat it as anything but infallible magic.

    It’s the fact that ethical people can easily create unethical AI. The core problem is reinforcing biases/stereotypes in the data without realizing. Obviously there are other concerns about purposefully doing unethical stuff, but the real issue is that AI/ML just learns from what it’s given.

    Examples range from cameras that think most people from Asia have their eyes closed digitaltrends.com/…/facial-recognition-software-p… to things like Amazon reinforcing gender hiring biases reuters.com/…/us-amazon-com-jobs-automation-insig…

    Ultimately even when built “correctly” AI can be extremely dangerous.

    Allegedly you can bring a bad human actor to justice, though we typically do not.

  disastrous consequences of turning economic power over to unethical AI systems

  Phew, good thing we’ve got ethical Jeff Bezos and Elon Musks controling out economies and piloting our governments instead 😅 really dodged a bullet there

  These warnings and fears would be a little easier to hear if they weren’t pushed so hard by the most disingenuous people ever. Sounds like they want everyone else to pause so they can get ahead.

    The most obnoxious ones are not only the loudest but they tend to get more screen time. You won’t see Gebru on cable news as often as you might get ol’ Yud talking about some vengeful AI god.
