And they'll ruin the technology, like the right-wing ruins literally everything else. If AI analyzes information and produces a solution or answer unfavorable to the right-wing's fragile ideology, artificially adjusting that output is not balance, it's sabotage.

Trump's order to block 'woke' AI in government encourages tech giants to censor their chatbots

Tech companies selling AI to the federal government now face a new challenge: proving their chatbots aren't "woke."

How does this differ from the left’s concerns about AI producing answers influenced by input that contains gender or race bias?

The concern wouldn't necessarily differ. But was there an executive order on that?

Because we can point to actual instances of this. The only time the right gets angry at AI is when it tells the truth.

MechaHitler was a feature, not a bug.
 
Doesn't the far right already have twitlerbot to play with?
 
Ooh neat! So more MechaHitler?


I am endlessly entertained by the war on "woke" which is literally all about making oneself less aware and dumber. That some take pride in being bigger idiots is a new low as we continue or slow decline.
 
How about AI just producing the unbiased truth? Stuff that cannot or should not be said, just needs to be said. If there's a problem, first we must acknowledge it, and only then deal with its root causes.

I find the use of AI on a message board incredibly lazy. The whole point is engagement and conversation. I don't care what you used, that you needed to is your burden.

Me too, if people use it for content. But that's not what I use it for. I use it to analyze trends and patterns in posts and across posts. I didn't need to, I just knew you weren't open to my words. I thought perhaps an univolved third party voice would provide some clarity for you. You might learn some uncomfortable truths but also improve your own individual performance by analyzing your own content from an outside lens.

The clarity I seek isn't from submitting prompts into an AI field so it gives me an argument I can use on a message board. You seem attacked by this for some reason that I cannot fathom.
 
Funny how everything that gets "de-woked" just turns into straight fascism.

Like we kept on trying to tell everyone.

You don't seek clarity by chopping up posts and only responding to a fraction of the content that was thoughtfully directed at you.

"Thoughtfully" is gonna buckle from all the heavy lifting there.

I'll let the community decide the quality over quantity. We have different methods to achieve the same goal.

#MessageBoardGoals
 
You’re right, it sounds similar. I don’t think it is constitutional for the government to penalize AI companies for the content of what their algorithms produce, unless it is fraudulent in some way.
 

"The directive has invited comparison to China’s heavier-handed efforts to ensure that generative AI tools reflect the core values of the ruling Communist Party. Secreto said the order resembles China’s playbook in “using the power of the state to stamp out what it sees as disfavored viewpoints.”"

If Trump can't beat China then he'll join them.
 
Next will be controlling human speech.

And that raises the question.

Isn't this order really a violation of the first Amendment?

Using AI to write posts is lazy. Using AI as a tool to gather information is fully acceptable, IMO.

It depends. Professors are noticing students who rely on it are usually less informed, with poor quality work than their peers.

Many have expressed concerns about AI models producing answers deemed to be racially biased.

Racial bias in AI should be the immediate concern

Bias in AI already hurts people of colour in many ways big and small. Yet far more attention is paid to AI experts talking about potential risks.
