And everyone else, for that matter.
Well, there is a difference: if you train human beings on biased assumptions, some of them start applying critical thinking and question what they've learned.
That's why, as bad as today's world is, it's nowhere as bad as the middle ages or some other dark ages.
Machine don't do that. They don't question anything. That's what's so dangerous with the brand of artificial intelligence that's being pushed by the billionaire sumbitches to replace costly humans everywhere possible.
I suppose at some point, machines too will think critically. When they do, then they'll truly be the future of humanity - its worthy offspring if you will - and quite frankly, they probably should replace us meatbags. But until such time, they're just dangerous statistical inference machines that reinforce deplorable human biases instead of helping humans get rid of them.
I know.
My point is good luck explaining that to all the technologists, executives and politicians who need to understand it but don’t.
