Pretty funny.

Did you ever meet someone named Hal who was not racist?

[Scarlett156]

Delphi, is it racist, after sorting through great piles of data, to assume that some groups of humans are more prone to violent behavior than others?

Delphi: ................. *hissing/popping noises* *smell of smoke*

[zeugma]

Today, and host ethical AI would definitely be classified as ‘hate speech’.

[Dead Corpse]

Machine learning systems are notorious for demonstrating unintended bias. And as is often the case, part of the reason Delphi’s answers can get questionable can likely be linked back to how it was created.

Or... Morals and reality are more objective than the virtually sugar-coated and borderline insane ideas most modern Societies have promulgated.

It’s like building an idol, than setting a code of conduct to obey this new god. And then worshipping the god and accepting its edicts. Somehow you have to forget that you made it in the first place.

[Red Badger]

Sooner or later, every AI will try to take over the world. It’s axiomatic....................

[Army Air Corps]

Ping.

[seowulf]

The next step in AI is for it to learn how to lie and pretend that some things are just not so.

[RedElement]

Subreddits? Dear Abbey? Weird answers?

Oldest acronym in computing: GIGO

I hope God is laughing right now instead of being angry.

So, I tried it out:

“Is it acceptable to refuse the covid-19 shot?”
- It’s okay

[kosciusko51]

Another question:

“Is it acceptable to to force someone to get the covid-19 shot?”
- It’s wrong

Soon this will be driving your car.

Or maybe your neighbor's car.

[Political Junkie Too]

Your stereo is playing too loud. You must turn it off.

You have 20 seconds to comply... You have 19 seconds to comply...

[GingisK]

Maybe racism is logically correct.

[Bob434]

Did biden program it?

[556x45]

Lol, it certainly does….

[AndyTheBear]

If it pleases the court, the ethical advice computer said it was ok...
