BERKELEY SCIENTISTS BUILDING CENSORSHIP AI: These folks, and others at the big social media companies, are literally building advanced artificial intelligences to more completely silence “hate speech.” This has to be among the dumbest things we humans have ever done: we’re putting our best minds to the task of building the most complete and efficient apparatus of totalitarian censorship imaginable. It’s just private companies, you say? Good thing no government would have an interest in “acquiring” this technology once it’s out there, right?
