...does AI think they all look alike??...are we ever going to get over this crap?


People with Dark Skin at Higher Risk of Being Hit by Self-Driving Cars, Study Finds

'AI has a problem. Apparently, it's racist. Specifically, self-driving cars are racist because people of color have a greater chance of being run over by one than white people do, according to a new study published by the Georgia Institute of Technology.

The study concludes that the existing recognition technology used in self-driving cars has a harder time recognizing humans the darker their skin is.

It’s easy to start fretting about the coming robo-takeover and all its attendant Terminator and I, Robot-esque predictions about how artificial intelligence is coming for humanity. But for the moment, the real concerns about new technology aren’t so different from the old concerns: systemic bias against people of color.'

Oh boy I can hear it now from some well intentioned but clueless Democrat "the big companies that are stealing from the poor and destroying the middle class are purposely building a racial bias into their cars" and they would go on with "we need to break up these racist conglomerates and force them to hire a more diverse staff in key top positions in their board rooms"



BIG UGH.

Didnt they say recently when they permitted those 2 AI systems to start developing their own language, a lot of it was actually pretty racist, seems like this was about 10-12 months ago, and they had to shut it down ultimately.

You should put things you quote directly in quotations. Your entire post was lifted from the article without attributing that it was.

That said, the fact that you copied and pasted the entire article except the last paragraph is telling. Let's hear the rest of the story now:

Look, the fact that researchers are working hard at finding solutions for the problems with current recognition technology undercuts claims of "systemic bias against people of color" as it relates to self-driving cars. Researchers recognize that people of color have a 5 percent greater chance of being struck by a self-driving car than a white person, but the problem is in the technology not in the latent racism of the developers. There are variables creating this issue in the technology that aren't connected to the motives of the developers. The GIT study states, "Common challenges of Pedestrian Detection include: occlusion by other objects or people, changes in clothing, and diverse lighting conditions."
Seems the technology still has some bugs. What a shocker.

It's in the TOS. And you did deliberately omit the one and only part of the article, the conclusion, that disagreed with your agenda. Sorry if pointing that out to those reading here distresses you, but that's the truth.

I didn't write the TOS.

Meanwhile....your title is a lie, and it appears even you know it. But carry on. I've done what I set out to do by exposing that fact.
