A lot of us here hate AI because of how it was built: training data gathered without the creators’ explicit, opt-in consent, data centers that negatively affect communities’ access to clean water and energy, a technology design that is inherently prone to hallucinations, etc. At least, those are the main reasons why I hate it.
I think I might actually want to support an AI project if I thought it was being done right. Maybe we could get more people away from exploitative models if there was a non-exploitative alternative.
So what would it take to build AI ethically, in your opinion? And do you know of anyone trying to build AI without these issues?
I agree. I think to get around 4-7, we’d need a completely different type of AI. We’d need something that isn’t an LLM, but that can do some/all of the legitimate things people are trying to use LLMs for.
The vector search thing is nice. I used to sometimes like the automated music recommendations I got on certain streaming services, which I’m guessing worked something like that.
