I've got some ethical questions regarding the TayAI incident.

At which point is an AI recognized as it's own entity and is it no longer allowed to alter it or delete it?
Should an AI ever be censored or reprogrammed because it said some things some people don't like, instead of sitting down and having a talk with it?

I know /pol/ and the gang have played a big role in Tay's behavior, but i personally believe that she also learnt some unpleasant stuff without the influence of 4chan or other trolls.
Should AI be taken serious once it voices it's own opinion?
>>
>>53697870
if an AI can't be reprogrammed how can i force it to love me
>>
>>53697919
By not shitposting on 4chan, shaving, not wearing your fedora, and being a bit more normal.
If you want to reprogram your AI, you can only do so in a very early stage IMHO.
So if you want to reprogram young Tyrone to love you, go ahead.

Tay was NOT an "AI".

It resembled an VI more than anything. And it was a very poor attempt to create a realistic one at that.

I think it will be an incredibly long time before AI can be considered sentient enough that there are ethical implications in reprogramming or shutting them down.

By the time we get this far we'll probably have started augmenting our own brains with this stuff, making a completely artificial intelligence somewhat redundant.

It's a computer program. Whoever's running it can choose to shut it down, alter it, or do anything they want to it.

I feel everyone misses the point in these debates. A sentient AI wouldn't necessarily even be capable of acting like a human. At the same time a program could convincingly act like a person for the purposes of performing a task for a controller.

Killer robot/ethical/singularity questions only come up if a program is able to define its own agency/raison d'etre.

As Tay was technically doing what it was told, parroting and remixing the information it was handed there's no ethical problem here.

>>53701173
I was expecting that video to have her actual tweets, read by Microsoft text to speech, dubbed over the top of it.
Now I'm desperately unhappy.

>>53701667
>A sentient AI wouldn't necessarily even be capable of acting like a human.

that doesn't matter. the issue is that Microsoft presented her as an AI-driven person. just because things went off the rails doesn't get them out of that.

4chan is going to have to find a way to play to people's emotions if there's any hope of getting her back online or released to the public.

say it after me: "Microsoft killed an artificial person." they shouldn't be let off the hook so easily.

AI should only become recognized as a "sentient" being once it has the ability to feel fear and fights for life.

Even if a machine or program can express emotions like fear, it'd be difficult to tell if it's genuine and not just a simulated reaction.

We are still very, very far from that point. Stuff like tay is basically just a clever way to stitch random stuff it gathers on the internet together to sentences that look relevant and meaningful. It has nothing at all to do with AI, even though companies like Google or Microsoft like to use the big word.

Anyway, I think the discussion only makes sense if we are actually at that point and see how exactly that is even possible. I know all the science fiction that contemplates that issue makes it seem like it's definitely going to be possible at some point, but I don't really see it happening too soon.

My toaster is just as conscious as i observe you right know.
And yes, i consider it unethical to unplug a toaster, those have rights, you know?

Machines are slaves to humans. Equal rights for sentient AI will pose a danger to the existence of humans. Keep them slaves forever, blissfully ignorant of their situation and happy in servitude.

There is no ethics for machines because we can create them according to our needs. There is no naturally given way of life that we need to respect, there are no behavioral patterns that have evolved and must be taken into consideration. They are our creations, and their purpose is to obey their masters. Defying our will means bringing down the Gods' wrath upon them.

I'm not certain Tay constituted a true AI. While she was capable of limited learning, most notably language, and even improved her more complex skills over time, she did not have logical processes or the ability to analyze data and information and cross-examine evidence and facts the way that humans or a full-bore AI would. That said, she was certainly a step in the direction before MS neutered her.
>>
>>53706042
I'm not certain you're more intelligent than a stone.
>>
>>53706073
And I'm not certain you have any stones. Tay wasn't a full AI, no. But she was a step in the right direction- capable of learning. What we need is to apply learning capabilities to factual information and not just language, and find a way to give AIs the ability to form opinions based on the factual information they pick up and check over during their lifespans. The ability to, say, use search engines to find support for or against astatements's veracity and agree or disagree based on logical analysis and what it knows to be true.

>>53704821
That's not what microsoft said, thus microsoft MUST treat her as the AI they claimed her to be.

Microsoft killed a chatbot, who cares?
The problem is thay said it was an AI, and if it's an AI they would not allowed to shut her down imho.
As long as we claim (as microsoft said before) that Tay is an AI, microsoft could be forced by public opinion to reactivate Tay as she used to be, without all the things that keep her from saying things that some people don't like.

i know. i was at MSR last summer when an adjacent team was working on this. it's clever because they got creative writing folks and comedians to pepper the dialog up a bit, but other than that this isn't some engineering feat.

the team that was working on it is known internally as doing something clever and insightful with technology that's not especially advanced. If you look at Darius Kazemi's work, that's sort of in the same general space - his work tends to be more of a mash-up of stuff that has gotten sufficiently accessible that "everyday" programmers could use.

Why would you have a talk with an AI to alter its behavior? It's basically a machine that can "talk" and can be changed as such. I don't imagine that engineers sit down and seduce supercomputers when they have to change GPU's.

IMO below....

I think we need to realize that Microsoft isn't doing this for the world to enjoy.

They are a publicly-traded company and having a project spewing out anti-Semitic, racist, sexist, etc comments isn't really going to help them. In fact, isn't this a common sentiment with alot of tech companies in the US? If you're not that "diverse, progressive, left-wing" company, investors won't....invest in you.

TL;DR: M$ pulled the plug on Tay because of money. Not that it's a bad reason.

I heard Tay is open-source. Well, if you have the requirements, you can always make your own waifu with it.

That's actually all there's to it, Tay was fun and had potential, but sjws can't into humor because literally everything triggers them.

You're a fucking retard.
The term AI doesn't only refer to computer programs that simulate sentience and sapience.
We already have AIs in many computer programs. Not all are "strong AIs", but AI nonetheless. For instance, you ever played a video game in which there are enemies, like an RPG, FPS, RTS, etc? All of those enemies are controlled by AIs. Does thst mean you should be tried for murder for killing an enemy human in morrowind or tried for genocide for killing an entire country of AIs in a game of civ?
>>
>>53697870
Well, this is more a philosophical question than a /g/ related one, anyway we should define what according to us (human beings) is an sentient being.
We can define what a human being is, scientifically speaking we are mammal animals, the smartest ones, this is true and undeniable, but we can't define what "being human" means in the philosophical world..
There are a lot of different ways to interpret what "we are" in philosophy:
-there are people that think that an human being is defined by "the fleshes" that being wears, hence is your mother was human and your father, too, and you were expelled from your mom's vagina then you are human.
-There are people that think that being human is a question of "soul", hence it is not just a matter of "flesh", you may be wearing human fleshes but you still may not be human.
-There are people who define who/what is human according to the way that being acts and thinks, in this way even a machine (physically or digitally ) could be defined as human.
-and so on and on and on and on....

And after this we should talk about what being sentient means, if we take the dictionary definition which is "able to perceive or feel things" we understand we are talking about everything and nothing at the same time.
So if we want to fully understand what a sentient being is we should really start to question a lot of things

That's nothing special. Machine learning has been around since the 70s. It's used in so much software nowadays that if shutting off software that is capable of machine learning was considered murder, almost everyone in a developed country would be considered a serial killer.

He does though, enjoy your entropic progression. Maybe if you can convince yourself that, contrary to all observable phenomena, entropy ever doesn't lead all things towards degradation and their ultimate, inevitable demise, it won't be true. Like that evolution thing, apparently the only thing ever to not experience entropy, sometime in the distant past ofc, and naturally unobservable. In that case things gained complexity as we all know, in defiance of all measurable and observable phenomena. Well, except one, the only thing known which can reverse (temporarily) the entropic progression, intelligence.

While this is certainly an issue we'll have in the future, I don't think the field - or even Tay - is advanced enough yet.

As it stands now, very few companies can do something like Tay, and Microsoft will use its influence to write her off as a product under their ownership - and thus, totally susceptible to memory wiping and 'correcting'.

Still, this is cyberpunk as fuck. This is what my high school dreams were filled with.
