(Yet another personal insult and attack like all of his other posts)
I was not planning on returning to this thread. But I read this news article today that I wanted to share.
Google Developing Tools to Suppress Online Speech
http://www.breitbart.com/tech/2016/09/19/google-wants-to-control-and-sanitize-the-internet-in-the-name-of-fighting-harassment/Under a veil of protecting people from abuse by authoritarian regimes and online trolls, Jigsaw founder and president Jared Cohen is releasing a set of tools known as Conversation AI.
I want to use the best technology we have at our disposal to begin to take on trolling and other nefarious tactics that give hostile voices disproportionate weight
[we will] do everything we can to level the playing field, said Cohen. Jigsaw argues that online trolls bully people into self-censoring their views, and that online speech must be moderated to ensure that nobody is silenced.
Conversation AI will use machine-learning techniques to pick up on harassment and abuse faster than any human moderator possibly can. According to Google, the filter has a 92% success rate at detecting so-called abusive messages in concurrence with a panel of humans, producing a false-positive only 10% of the time.
So congratulations are in order nomad13666. Your insults and viciousness are effective you win. Your prize is 'Conversation AI'.
The rest of us lose. Now we have to deal not only with the nomads13666's of the world but the far more dangerous 'Conversation AI' who's creation they helped to spark. Civil discourse, true debate, and the uncensored exchange of ideas just got harder.
Only a virtuous people are capable of freedom. As nations become corrupt and vicious, they have more need of masters
