>‘Machines can only work from the information given to them, usually by the white, straight men who dominate the fields of technology and robotics.’
>Canmachines think – and, if so, can they think critically about race and gender? Recent reports have shown that machine-learning systems are picking up racist and sexist ideas embedded in the language patterns they are fed by human engineers. The idea that machines can be as bigoted as people is an uncomfortable one for anyone who still believes in the moral purity of the digital future, but there’s nothing new or complicated about it. “Machine learning” is a fancy way of saying “finding patterns in data”. Of course, as Lydia Nicholas, senior researcher at the innovation thinktank Nesta, explains, all this data “has to have been collected in the past, and since society changes, you can end up with patterns that reflect the past. If those patterns are used to make decisions that affect people’s lives you end up with unacceptable discrimination. "
>Robots have been racist and sexist for as long as the people who created them have been racist and sexist, because machines can work only from the information given to them, usually by the white, straight men who dominate the fields of technology and robotics. As long ago as 1986, the medical school at St George’s hospital in London was found guilty ofracial and sexual discriminationwhen it automated its admissions process based on data collected in the 1970s. The program looked at the sort of candidates who had been successful in the past, and gave similar people interviews. Unsurprisingly, the people the computer considered suitable were male, and had names that looked Anglo-Saxon.
>Automation is a great excuse for assholery – after all, it’s just numbers, and the magic of “big data” can provide plausible deniability for prejudice. Machine learning, as the technologist Maciej Cegłowski observed, can function in this way as “money laundering” for bias.

You guys ever notice how faceapp always tries to remove glasses of whoever you use the 'hot' filter on? What did they mean by this...?

They re gonna have a serious problem trying to make PC AI. I'd say it's just impossible because you need to be un-intelligent to be PC.
An intelligent machine would automatically become racist, just as a kid is racist by nature.
If for example you feed all the data of the current (((refugee crisis))) situation in Europe to an AI machine and asked for what to do the answer would be along the lines of /pol.

So make them, you fucks. White men were the only people that gave a damn about robotics, why the fuck should they apply (((diversity))) to please people that hate them just for existing (aside from being """racist"""" I'm sure most of the men working on robotics are the stereotypical nerds who were outcasts).
Fuck, why are women the niggers AND the kikes of gende- >Laurie Pennie
Oh, never mind. It checks out. All of it.

Ummm.... aren't most robots made by asians in Japan and shit?
Levi Davis
Japan when it comes to utility and general robots, yes, but Americans are top tier when it comes to AI and weaponized robots.

>only white people make robots Um, racist much?!
This BASED black child built a computer from parts! Africa is a sleeping tech giant.
And did you forget about Ahmed Mohamed? That little boy was such an electronics genius Obama invited him to the White House. How many white men building robots and AI have been invited to the White House, huh??

Sounds good until you realise all humans are just nigger robots.
