No way the lobotomized monkey we trained on internet data is reproducing internet biases! Unexpected!

The number of people who don't understand that AI is just the mathematical average of the internet... If we're, on average, assholes, AI is gonna be an asshole

I talked to a girl who was super into AI, but her understanding of it was absolutely bizzare. Like she kinda thought that chat gpt was like deep thought, some giant ass computer somewhere that is leaning and is really smart and never wrong. I didn't really want to argue about it and said something like: back in my day we had akinator and we liked that. She had no idea what that was and tried it and thought it's some really advanced ai that can almost read minds. That shit was released in 2007 or so.

Its worse than that because assholes tend to be a lot louder, and most average people are lurkers. So AI is the average of a data set that is disproportionately contributed too by assholes.

Yeah, only thing this proves is that the data it was working off of objectively stated that more women were paid lower wages. Doubt the bros will realize that though

Understanding cynicism and irony is also crucial…. You suck!
