i am convinced that programmes can make much more unbiased judgments than the judges. There's data now showing tat these things deliver accuracy in a number of ways. But when it comes to moral issues you're always going to have this problem, will just be further back and hidden where the problems are. The nice thing is for a human beingit who may or may not know why they are giving a particular answer that might be biased... i'm not prepared for this, but we could do a whole segment. O, there's no need to say everything is quantifiable. It would have to be quantifiable the particularities that you yet at em like it's always this easy fucking fix.
David and Tamler dive into David Foster Wallace’s celebrated and surprisingly earnest Kenyon College commencement speech “This is Water”. How can we escape the prison and prism of our (literally) self-centered perspective? Can we choose to adjust our natural default settings, take a break from our running inner monologue, and pay attention to what’s in front of us right now? Is DFW appealing to Buddhist ideas or something more general that you can be found across all spiritual traditions?
Plus we ask the AI ethics program “Ask Delphi” some tough moral questions (spoiler alert: "just the tip" is "rude"), and almost get into a big fight about the potential of AI ethical robots (but we’re saving that argument for a future episode).
