You’re Afraid of AI For All the Wrong Reasons

CYBER - Un pódcast de VICE - Viernes

Artificial intelligence. It’s in your headlines and on your social media feed. AIs like Midjourney and DALL-E have filled my Twitter feed with algorithmically generated nightmare images of Tony Soprano as a Roman Emperor and Bigbird participating in the January 6 riots.At the same time, the press has become enamored with the story of Blake Lemoine, a Google engineer who the company let go after Lemoine insisted the LaMDA chatbot was sentient. Are we at the beginning of the AI apocalypse? Have our machines finally become sentient?Simply: no. And conversations about AI outpacing human artists and chatbots becoming sentient are part of a tired news cycle around AI. They also mask the actual dangers of the technology we should be watching out for.On this episode of Cyber, Motherboard Senior Editor Janus Rose walks us through the real and imagined terrors of Artificial Intelligence.Stories discussed on this week’s episode:Technologists Are Using AI to ‘Expand’ Famous Works of ArtGoogle's AI Isn’t Sentient, But It Is Biased and TerribleThe AI That Draws What You Type Is Very Racist, Shocking No OneWe’re recording CYBER live on Twitch.
