Those are names that you give your kids if you have absolutely no faith that your kids might ever get a real job or amount to anything.

I threw in the 100 years in case i was way off and didn’t want to look stupid :)

Self confidence never was my strong point.

Obviously not. They are computer programs that do calculations. Reality is that blacks and hispanics commit much more crime proportionally than anyone else. It’s a fact. The liberals refuse to admit it, but it’s indisputable.

Just like exams. They consistently show that blacks and hispanics do poorly, but liberals refuse to accept that, and so throw out the exams.

Face reality.

The recognition of differences and reality is essential for reason and agency.


The Human brain is a big statistical processor. Our “biases” come from data we observe over time. It is how we have survived and prospered. The whole point of PC is to short-circuit that. And for a sizeable portion of the population, it seems to be working.

A good AI will pick up on exactly the same things as a smart human. But it won’t fit the PC template, which means the Left will cry out for it to be changed. But you can’t hid the truth from an AI and expect it to work properly. So Tthis will result in AI that makes bad decisions. It will be an interesting dynamic. Techies used to be almost exclusively conservative. Now its split about 50/50, but even the liberal techies want to make things work. Because their $$ depends on it.

Simply go to the Google homepage, and type "American inventor", into the search box. Look at all those black people!

UNBELIEVABLE! Edison's photo is the first of a white person at #8.

But, but, but...what about all those Muslim LGBTQRXYZ inventors?

The real problem is that the AI’s don’t include the race and gender biases that leftists demand.

“Simply go to the Google homepage, and type “American inventor”, into the search box. Look at all those black people! Now, those silicon minds are going to be right. “

I don’t get anything like that. I get a bunch of hits about the tv show and a few about lists. Black History Month was a couple of months ago, too.

The words “female” and “woman” were more closely associated with arts and humanities occupations and with the home ...

If they don’t like the connotations, they could try changing their BEHAVIOR.

Truth is sexist and raciist and homophobic because it deals with IQ and Truth/Reality.

TRUTH is the new HATE SPEECH.

If they don't like the results the engineering department came up with in artificial intelligence research, maybe the Department of Grievance Studies can design an artifical stupidity project. Because Lord knows we don't have enough natural stupidity yet.
