The darker side of machine learning
There is no going back. As the article concludes, the benefits of machine learning outweigh these scary-sounding costs. I doubt we will ever have a Dune-style rejection of AI, so we will have to learn to live with machine learning and the world it creates.<p>My argument - same as it has been since the Snowden revelations - is that if we cannot roll back this radical shift in the ways of the world, then the only check on the power of governments, corporations, and other potentially nefarious groups, is to have all of this information available to the public at no additional cost.<p>Anything less is an open door to abuse, corruption, and tyranny.
