@CressSalad@mastodon.social @mu@mastodon.nz @AlSweigart@mastodon.social A big problem with statistically generated answers is that correct information isn’t necessarily the most statistically prevalent. In fact, there are very well funded organizations dedicated to making sure that it isn’t. Yet people perceive information from computers as being both unbiased and more accurate than information from humans.

@mathew @mu @AlSweigart True, this helped me understand: https://www.ibm.com/think/topics/ai-vs-machine-learning-vs-deep-learning-vs-neural-networks I am thinking though in a few years we should be able to ask questions of these systems, what ever level of AI we get to, to example draw up a national budget or list natitonal priorities for the population (for example health care vs military), not just to the benefit of some prime minister or president. Maybe we are already running these models. I dont know.
