  • My only real counter to this is who created the dataset and did the people that were creating the app have any power to affect that?

    A lot of AI research in general was first done by largely Caucasian students, so the datasets they used skewed that way, and other projects very often started from those initial datasets. The historical reason there are more students of that skin tone is because they have in general the most money to finance the schooling, and that’s because past racism held African-American families back from accumulating wealth and accessing education, and that still affects their finances and chances today, assuming there is no racism still going on in scholarships and accepting students these days.

    Not saying this is specifically happening for this project, just a lot of AI projects in general. It causes issues with facial recognition in lots of apps for example.


















  • Guess what traits tend to make for people better at securing and conserving power within groups, and keeping loyalty within their ranks?

    In a time of crisis. The biggest downside of these leaders is that they keep creating new crises to stay in power. There are cases of killing such a leader because of that.

    And in a lot of leaders, their status was defined for how much they could give away and how generous they were, not how tough they were.

    Then there is religion, that manages to encoded certain rules and pass them on to the next generations.

    The world is a lot more than psychopaths.
