      Worldcoin, founded by US tech entrepreneur Sam Altman, offers free crypto tokens to people who agree to have their eyeballs scanned.

      What a perfect sentence to sum up 2023 with.

    So just like shitty biased algorithms shouldn’t be making life changing decisions on folks’ employability, loan approvals, which areas get more/tougher policing, etc. I like stating obvious things, too. A robot pulling the trigger isn’t the only “life-or-death” choice that will be (is!) automated.

    AI will be used to increase shareholder dividends. If your company just happens to involve healthcare, warfare, etc and AI makes decisions to maximize profit then youre just collateral damage with no human to blame. Sorry your husband died of cancer, the computer did it.

      Yup, my job sent us to an AI/ML training program from a top cloud computing provider, and there were a few hospital execs there too.

      They were absolutely giddy about being able to use it to deny unprofitable medical care. It was disgusting.
