Meta appoints anti-LGBTQ+ conspiracy theorist Robby Starbuck as AI bias advisor

A lack of pictures of my extended family.
Videos of my nieces figure skating are the primary reason I haven't deleted my account
Try to get them to text them instead. Giant family text chains are a lot more fun (and chaotic) than generic social media.
The anti-woke campaigner brought legal action against Meta – ... – after the company’s artificial intelligence chatbot falsely stated he took part in the riot at the US Capitol on 6 January, 2021, seeking $5 million in damages.
Hold up, you can a convince a chat bot to say something bad about you and then sue that company into giving you a job?
What the fuck is happening right now?
We're in the dumbest possible timeline.
I feel like a lot of the anger at transexuals is because men don't want to be confused as women
The ones with femine features who rely on their clothing and social norms to be identified as a man.
If all I saw was the thumbnail, I probably would have unintentionally misgendered this piece of shit. They treat women like property so their main concern is if someone treats them like a woman.
So they insist on a strict adherence to gender norms to avoid people confusing them with what they consider to be "lesser"
Reactionaries decry "identity politics," because it's literally all they have; they're the ones pushing to make their list of prescribed identities the only socially acceptable ones.
They loathe women who jump their station and get a "man's job." They're disgusted by trans people who won't accept their assignment to either pump out babies for the oligarchy or mainain white Christian supremacy. They're enraged by immigrants who "don't belong."
The identity that they care about most though is "conservative." You can get away with anything so long as you fly that particular freak flag and pretend to apologize. They're narrow-minded bigots who should be ostracized in any civilized society.
I mean, "both sides" act like the other is crazy, but it's all normal human variation.
About 20% of people are going to be super into a leader who uses violence to obtain compliance, and are always ready to personally do the same.
There's always been that slice of humanity and there always will be.
It's just if we let that ~20% run the show, shit is going to suck for the other ~80%, and also a lot of that ~20%.
We need to understand why they're like this so we can mitigate their influence on society on a larger scale. Or even better, get a "strong" progressive leader that gives them the warm and fuzzies they desperately need to stop being such pieces of shit.
“bOtH sIdEs” makes anyone sound really, really stupid when one side is building concentration camps
That's why I put it in quotation marks....
But writing them off as evil idiots clearly didn't fucking work
So maybe we should try what's most likely to work to stop the concentration camps, instead of what gives you the warm and fuzzies.
Right?
Or is being angry and fighting about shit more important to you than fixing things for the betterment of everyone?
Because not all that 20% has an R by their name, and I'm pretty sure you just put yourself as an example of that
When I read your comment it seemed like the blame was being cast at both sides. It’s important to me that everyone else on the internet who might see this thread knows that “both sides”ing gets shit on.
Please carry on if you must.
Starbuck’s mission to bring “sanity back to corporate America”
ugh, I can't with them
Dude looks like the love child of Charlie Kirk and his sister
Can't be Charlie Kirk's, face is too big. Gotta be some unfortunate look alike's love child instead.
"Non-biased AI" = Very right-wing biased AI
The US really is the #1 place for doublespeak huh?
Do they can he concentration camps recreation camps too?
"They're just there thinking real hard"
tech bros really want people to hate ai huh
She’s not passing yet by the look of the thumbnail, but good for her for being brave and going full girlmode
Is this lady trans?
