A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Yes. For example, when an AI-based system is hyped or deployed, very often it is touted as an improvement over whatever the previous (human-involving) system was, because supposedly it will "make objective decisions", "without prejudices", "based on cold data", and so on.
Each instance of this needs to be called out, every time, because these decisions end up being anything but.
Oh yeah that’s a good point! Thank you
