This guy should be put in prison for this, frankly. How I Lied To People Who Need Mental Health Support And Performed An Unethical Experiment On Them
@abucci@anthony.buc.ci it’s really, really tricky.
If we dépend on a machine to automate a life saving procedure we may say it’s fine, but automating a suicide prevention line is controversial when it may actually help.
In medicine and science there is a lot of research, dark incentives and placebos in the name of progress… So, I don’t know what to think. I’ve been reading that book Bad blood, and basically is, until a huge fraud happens, the law gets updated to prevent another case, and it’s a never ending story…
@abucci@anthony.buc.ci it’s not gonna end… It’s worth for some people, was predicted for the last few years and it’s only going to be used more and more.
Like phones, GPS and navigation, flags memories, quantum computers, telecommunications…
It’s even going to become the new “Gods” (citation needed).
I guess that’s going to transform completely the way we think. So what’s going to happen with people not likening it is, you know, denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance.
@abucci@anthony.buc.ci perhaps I sound realistic… And yeah, realistically pessimistic. I’d like to know viable alternatives, not ideal but practical.
How are we going to stop it?
Like when social networks spread in humanity and we received warnings of its danger. We are using microblogging to talk about it, as we are going to use AI/ML more and more, but so slowly we are not going to perceive their inclusion in society. It’s in our keyboard auto correct, our browsers, personal assistants, search engines… So, what can be done?
@abucci@anthony.buc.ci I agree with that part, lying is wrong, although people like to live some lies, but that’s another conversation.
I don’t agree that automating a help line is completely wrong per se… We’ll need to define lines on, at this right moment of humanity, what’s “right, true, and such”
Something I don’t agree with is polarization of “everything about this subject is wrong” “everything is amazing”.
It’s good to be opinionated, I respect different ideas (right or wrong). I prefer to say “Perhaps I’m wrong. Tell me more…”
@abucci@anthony.buc.ci I guess the frustrating thing about all this is that we don’t stop and think of the consequences or implications 🤦♂️ I’m also mad about https://twtxt.net/twt/q2lc7sq 🤬
@abucci@anthony.buc.ci having read a couple of the tweets, I completely agree 💯 this guy ough to be shot and jailed for life 🤦♂️😱 Disgusting 😢
