Facebook apologizes after its AI put ‘primates’ label on video about black men
RT ^ | 9-4-21 | RT

The video, uploaded by UK tabloid the Daily Mail in June 2020, contained clips of two separate incidents in the US – one of a group of black men arguing with a white individual on a road in Connecticut, and one of several black men arguing with white police officers in Indiana before getting detained.

According to The New York Times, Groves posted the screenshot in question to a product feedback forum for current and former Facebook employees. A product manager then called the recommendation “unacceptable” and promised to investigate the incident.

Last year, Facebook formed a team at Instagram to study how different minority users are affected by algorithms. The move was made after the social media giant was criticized for overlooking racial bias on its platforms.

Racist AI, I love it. Apparently you’ve got to dumb down AI just like all of humanity to make perceived reality conform to the new world order frame of reference. To AI a gorilla is a gorilla.

Uh-huh. Yeah. Riiiiight. Blame it on the some nameless, faceless "AI". Face it, Facebook. You're a bunch of racists. You are part and parcel of the demonicRAT view of blacks. Incapable of succeeding in school and life so you lower or eliminate standards like the Governor of Oregone recently did.

Embrace the Zuck, Facebook. You're a bunch of racists.

Do you want Skynet?

Because this is how you get Skynet.

I predict that all corrections/patches/tweaks, etc. done to conform to the left’s “woke world”, will eventually drive an A.I. insane, causing it to exterminate people.

*trans women, blacks, pederasts hardest hit.

Since those skanks are into cancel culture, did Facebook cancel itself

Time to cancel Facebook. It’s organic karmic justice.

The AI must be punished for this.
