How useful would an AI model be if it were trained on the content from a social media platform full of nazis, russian trolls, and bots?
Didn't we kinda see this happen already? I don't remember which product it was. Was it one of Microsofts trial runs?
it was Tay. She went super fuckin racist.
Oh yeah, that's the one. Who could've seen this coming, right?
haha yeah. I can only imagine what an AI trained on twitter would be like. Way worse than Tay I think.
Worse in the insidiously-pushing-dark-agendas manner for sure, and an altogether much greater threat to humanity. It couldn’t match Tay for straight up insane evil— she was loudly supporting eugenics and more— but that makes it more dangerous.
I guess...full of sh*t.
