I’ve been away for a while with other work/life commitments (and terribly demotivating weather), but this thread has been a great (but very long) read.
I went to a Surgical conference a few months ago entirely dedicated to AI in Surgery.I was fascinatied and amazed to see the sophisticated and novel uses of this tech in medicine already, in what is still a very immature technology/science.
The one thing that stuck with me, and very obvious in hindsight, is that virtually all of this still has the same biases (ie jumping to possibly inappropriate conclusions) as the society which created the tech.
The answers that come out in whatever application (or chat bot), will have the same gender, age, race, religious biases that are prevalent in society.
Interesting…
I’m with Adam though, I’m very excited by the whole thing. What an amazing time to be living in this simulation.
