You don’t seem to have read the article because the government admits that there are issues with racial bias and it’s already attempting to mitigate that for indigenous people specifically, but not black people.

Whatever correlation may or may not be present should not be used to justify worse conditions. Worse conditions lead to worse outcomes so it becomes a bit of a self fulfilling issue. We do not know how these decisions are being made and that the problem. Even if race is excluded it could be using a proxy for race. There should be guidelines that apply to everyone or a panel that can be questioned and held accountable. AI cannot be held accountable in this way so it should not be making these decisions.

I’ve mostly seen people take issue when the government puts controls or blocks. I’ve not seen any pushback for parental controls. I don’t hang out on parenting communities though.

It’s more been threatened than actually happened, but I would suggest keeping in mind that the issue isn’t eminent domain or the power companies (though obviously fuck them, they should be nationalized), the issue is the data centers and the government not restricting those. If more power is needed there’s not much to be done other than build more power infrastructure. The issue is allowing these data centers to be built in such an unsustainable and harmful way that puts pressure on the grid.

I don’t know a lot of nurses, but those I have heard from suggest that AI in the medical field will lead to worse healthcare outcomes.

In the article they say “Shuler said her job often requires complicated communications, over things like medication changes and discharge planning, that would be hard to conduct with AI.”

I don’t want AI in charge of medication changes. That doesn’t seem like a checkbox kind of thing. I can see how maybe it could be boiled down to a checkbox or flowchart, but it doesn’t seem like it’s just data entry. Which I still don’t know that I want AI solely responsible for.

As the nurses regularly have mentioned, even if they were kept on doing patient stuff, you still don’t want AI making healthcare decisions or in charge of healthcare documents.
