Someone should probably inform the White House's "AI & Crypto Czar" that no one is forcing AI companies to train their models on Wikipedia
You would think the obvious solution to "the volunteer-powered project we all train our AI models on for free isn't adequately twisting reality to our political views" would be "... and so we stopped training on it" and not "... and so we will force the volunteers to bend to our will"
@molly0xfff I wonder why there is no good “unbiased” (of course they mean biased towards *their* world view) knowledge source that they could train their models on.
Maybe, because – just like in the case of universities – there is not so much “activism” in play here, but rather a natural tendency of things that are done properly with at least moderately academic methods to appear somehow liberal, slightly leftish … which to them then is “radical left”?
