VP Harris says we need to make sure that government-used AI is bias free.<\/p>\n

Each agency by December must have a set of concrete safeguards that guide everything from facial recognition screenings at airports to AI tools that help control the electric grid or determine mortgages and home insurance.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I’m so confused… does this mean that highly desirable affirmative action has to be restored? Or banned?<\/p>\n

While Biden\u2019s broader order also attempts to safeguard the more advanced commercial AI systems made by leading technology companies, such as those powering generative AI chatbots, Thursday\u2019s directive will also affect AI tools that government agencies have been using for years to help with decisions about immigration, housing, child welfare and a range of other services.<\/p>\n

As an example, Harris said, \u201cIf the Veterans Administration wants to use AI in VA hospitals to help doctors diagnose patients, they would first have to demonstrate that AI does not produce racially biased diagnoses.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

She obviously knows different docs than the majority I’ve met – most think their colleagues are suspect at best, and using AI for a critical diagnosis? They’d rather drive a Yugo.<\/p>\n

Agencies that can’t apply the safeguards \u201cmust cease using the AI system, unless agency leadership justifies why doing so would increase risks to safety or rights overall or would create an unacceptable impediment to critical agency operations,\u201d according to a White House announcement.\u00a0 Military.com<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Error message 666: “User has exceeded permitted number of non-white facial recognition requests, please reset in 18 hours”.<\/p>\n

Ya just can’t win. Be a star student, go into the military, become a fighter pilot…that sounds pretty good, right? Unless…<\/p>\n

Russian Armed Forces downed one of their own Sukhoi Su-27 fighter jets over Crimea on Thursday, Ukrainian officials claim.<\/p>\n

Ukraine’s Navy spokesman Dmytro Pletenchuk said on Ukrainian television that “We confirm that this aircraft belonged to the Russian Federation and that it was destroyed by their own forces.”<\/p>\n

“They were on alert, on combat readiness,” he added. “The human factor was at work \u2014 one of the operators was eager to get a medal and didn’t bother to find out whose plane it was.”<\/p>\n

The Moscow-installed leader of Sevastopol, Mikhail Razvozhayev, confirmed that a Russian warplane had “crashed” off the Crimean coast without naming the cause and that the pilot had ejected safely and “was picked up by rescue services.”\u00a0 Business Insider<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

“aaah, gavno” seems likely to have been used. Anyone know Russian for “oops” ?<\/p>\n
