In California, one such lawsuit was allowed to continhe by a judge. Proclaming innocence doesn't work when we have all known about AI racial bias and hallucinations for many years, we can reasonably show that they in all likelihood did know the same way a musician can prove the thief heard their song in a copyright case.

    Glad to see that, but a single example does not a reliable precedent make — particularly under the current grip of the judicial system by conservatives.

    AI being new means you won't have precedent going back 20 years, mate. As I mentioned there is already precedent for proving the defendant was aware of the problematic behavior or risks due to such information being publicly available and commonly discussed.

    Even if what you say is true and a bunch of conservative trump appointee hacks are fucking the judicial process up: you can't win them all and there are going to be metric assloads of these cases.

    ...we have all known about AI racial bias and hallucinations for many years...

    vs

    AI being new...

    Which is it?

    What I said is demonstrably true, and - unless Thomas & Alito are dumb enough to stick things out past the current administration's ability to replace them - we are going to be suffering the effects of the stacked Supreme Court having the final word for quite some time.

    LLMs and even the other large dataset trained machine learning chatbots which directly preceded them going back over a decade have always displayed racial bias.

    Companies using that technology to sort applicants hasn't been widespread for more than a couple of years.

    What a bad faith question. Next time you pretend to be this stupid at least consider having some capability of observing the world you live in.

    My, what an arrogant, assuming condescension. Maybe go out and touch grass. I'd shoot you down further, but I'm not as childish as you so I know not to bother wasting my time further. Maybe we'll talk when you outgrow your teenage-level testosterone-driven mentality. For now, blocked.
