Absolutely disgusting. 😤 Your blood will boil if you read this article; stories of humble people not asking for much, being penalsed & traumatised by auto-algo-AI-slop-stupid & weasel words about ‘fine-tuning’ the system: "It's quite inhumane” is the least of it.🤬
New Minister Sam Rae does not cover himself in glory either - pathetic response. 😤
Hard to believe this is happening so recently after Robodebt & that the public service bureaucracy & the federal govt & indeed other govts have learned so little! Perhaps it’s because no one was adequately punished for Robodebt? ‘AI says No’ has become the excuse of the day. 😤

I succumbed to the temptation to continue my conversation with Gemini impersonating Sydney. Some reflections and a full transcript in this post.

tl;dr - It refused to help crime but was happy to give practical advice on emotional manipulation techniques. Yuck.

Despite wide employment of anthropomorphic terms to describe their behavior, AI machines do not learn or reason as humans do. They do not "know" anything independently of the works on which they are trained, so their output is a function of the copied materials.

Generative AI's Illusory Case for Fair Use

Pointing to Google Books, HathiTrust, Sega and other technology-driven fair use precedents, AI companies and those who advocate for their interests claim that m

ChatGPT Can Reveal Personal Information From Real People, Google Researchers Show

The popular AI chatbot is divulging sensitive information from its training data, according to a team of researchers at Google.

Going to open interviews for 2 positions in my org, so I've been looking at resumes & sometimes I want to understand more [e.g. see prev], so I google them.

For one, one of first 5 results proclaims '[CANDIDATE NAME] IS [AGE] YEARS OLD'. If you know US employment practices & law you know that's REALLY PROBLEMATIC INFORMATION for someone in a hiring position to have. Also it's purely conjectural!

Like, if I TELL anyone in the hiring chain that information, they should fail the search.
