MODERATORS
 
  • Nick Clegg, former Meta executive and UK Deputy Prime Minister, has reiterated a familiar line when it comes to AI and artist consent.
  • He said that any push for consent would “basically kill” the AI industry.
  • Clegg added that the sheer volume of data that AI is trained on makes it “implausible” to ask for consent.

Specially when you realize that AI is for more than music, literature and other forms of illegal data processing. It can be used in a huge amount of other ways. One way for example would be to replace our president with a Combination of 4 magistrates and 1 AI...the republicans get 2, the Democrats get 2. AI gets to propose actions to take but has 0 authority in doing anything. Once a proposal has been made to do something, the 4 people get to discuss the action and implement it. If the implementation ends in a tie, then AI can ask the people to vote by phone. AI would then break the tie via the people's popular vote. And no more electoral college, just use AI to pick the president based on the popular vote.

Nice, I want to be the company owning that "AI" algorithm!

The person who offered it probably didn't notice how IRL con artists too often work by "just offering an idea".

Doesn't really matter though does it as long as the weights are open sourced everyone can confirm that the AI is unbiased.
