☆ Meet Michal Kosinski, the Oppenheimer of AI's Scariest Future
  + stars: | 2024-08-05 | by ( Adam Rogers | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +20 min
Eugenicists used photographs and IQ tests to determine which people were "inferior," and sterilized those who didn't measure up — which usually turned out to be anyone who wasn't white and rich. Before he worked with photographs, Kosinski was interested in Facebook. It's just picking up on the way gay people present themselves on dating sites — which, not surprisingly, is often very different from the way straight people present themselves to potential partners. Kosinski thinks AI's ability to make the kind of personality judgments he studies will only get better. That is the future Kosinski fears — even as he continues to tinker with the very models that prove it will come to pass.

☆ Electronic tracking has been required on semi-trucks for 5 years. Fatalities haven't decreased.

The devices help ensure truckers don't drive longer than they should, a maximum of 11 hours per day, to avoid fatigue and keep roads safe. Another driver, Brian Stauffer, pointed out that ELDs don't allow for adjustment, and that a driver that has reached the 11-hour limit shouldn't be forced to stop in a high-crime area, for example. "They used to say, 'I'll get there in about 11 hours'. Now they really only have 11 hours. Before ELDs, hours of service were noted down on paper logbooks, which were easy to falsify.
