Is [[AI]] ''this'' dreary really going to make us all redundant? And will it become all morose, self-righteous and needy like real [[LinkedIn]] [[users]]? We presume so. What will [[LinkedIn]] [[AI]] be like when it discovers identity politics? Or Twitter? | Is [[AI]] ''this'' dreary really going to make us all redundant?

Then again, [[LinkedIn]]’s [[AI]] really can’t be blamed if it comes up a bit sycophantic: the [[algorithm]] can only learn from the material it has in front of it, and scraping the gruesomely obsequious human interactions on [[LinkedIn|Linkedin]] can’t be fun, even for a machine, and really what else is it meant to make of natural language communication if that is its data set? | Then again, [[LinkedIn]]’s [[AI]] really can’t be blamed if it comes up a bit sycophantic: the [[algorithm]] can only learn from the material it has in front of it, and scraping the gruesomely obsequious human interactions on [[LinkedIn|Linkedin]] can’t be fun, even for a machine, and really, what else is it meant to make of natural language communication if that is its data set? | ||

How will that be? And is that better than the [[chatbot]]s we can expect to evolve out of [[Twitter]]? Will tribes of bots — some malevolent and bigoted, some bootlickingly dull — have a kind of apocalyptic war for dominion over our mortal [[Meatsack|flesh-sacks]]? | ||
