AI hiring algorithms reject Black, Asian job seekers at higher rates
(www.theregister.com)
"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
Oh, it's so much worse than you think:
I posted about the full horror a while back:
The key opener:
LLMs amplify "conventional wisdom" to ludicrous levels. On almost any topic.
LLMs are highly complex imitation machines. They're designed to seem as close to the humans they were modeled on as technically possible. And they do a great job at that! It's a highly fascinating technology, all in all.
But it's not intelligence. There is no reasoning to the stochastics. No semantics to the tokens. No causation to the correlation.
And I hate that people conflate these things.
Thinking out loud.
In middle school some jock shoved me and ripped off my patch on my jacket and the school suspended us both. Zero Tolerance. OK Later in High School he dies in a drinky drive.. Great parents.
I took the ACT and bombed it I took a class where they told me to not read the reading section and pick up on keywords only. I took the test again and killed it. I wanted to work at a library because I am a nerd so I applied online. Sent my resume in like a thousand times to each branch. Someone…. shouldn't of gave me a email to a person in HR and I pestered the fuck out that person. Finally got a meaningful interview and got the job. Only to learn after working there, that they use keywords in your resume and your responses via a fucking computer to place the correct responses at the top of the stack. My high school “advanced” english teacher told me to be a walking talking thesaurus. Never just say something. Use your words. Set yourself apart. Whose is wrong?
They want you to beg. They want it to be a labyrinth They want people to fight each other like dogs.
There are background processes everywhere even before chatgipity. I strongly dislike marketing. I despise the tech bro.
This is all a play by the deep state. We are all lost people in the chains of wage slavery. Debts to pay and no leadership. Man made by design crisis.
If I see racist shit I call it out on the spot.
...and then top off that in a heritage foundation christo_fash environment with chatgipity porn bots making nazi tots. Fuck I hate this place. 4 decades of pointless life to witness. You won’t reach your destination. Or if you do you will be like whats next. People believe the hype. Dig their own graves. Like I am damned but you are too. Too ambitious some just need to love themselves. Not in a shallow way. Enrichment. We chase after stupid shit without thinking. Now here we are with nothing at the mercy of the kid with the magnifying glass in the hot sun. The people the real people disagree and out number those chatgipiting us. I say we are off to see the wizard.

Just in case, I should make it clear I didn't write that. I found it online.
