"A chatbot did not kill those children. People failed to update a database, and other people built a system fast enough to make that failure lethal. By the start of the Iran war, Maven – the system that had enabled that speed – had sunk into the plumbing, it had become part of the military’s infrastructure, and the argument was all about Claude. This obsession with Claude is a kind of AI psychosis, though not of the kind we normally talk about," #ai

AI got the blame for the Iran school bombing. The truth is far more worrying

LLMs-gone-rogue dominated coverage, but had nothing to do with the targeting. Instead, it was choices made by human beings, over many years, that gave us this atrocity

@mfeilner trash in, trash out!
First lesson in a AI (LLM) I followed: data gathering and cleansing. 90% of the work to built usable trustworthy AI component.

And as a former archivist/information manager I know how much R.O.T. data there is floating around 😬 That should be a worry in the boardrooms, but c-level is never interested in solid archival/data-management 🤷🏼‍♀️

@Frieke72 I used to say #GIGO or better:

#SISO. Shit In, Shit out.

"c-level is never interested in solid archival/data-management"

Yes, that's so to the point that it made my day.

@Frieke72 Thanks again for the inspiration, I made it one of my #feilnerisms
