genders

So it looks like both ChatGPT and Bard contain the same kind of gendered biases people have been trying to warn you about for at least 8 years, since word2vec was cutting edge.

Here's a screenshot of an interaction between myself and google bard, in which bard displays gendered prejudicial bias of associating "doctor" with "he" and "nurse" with "she."

Again, this is… This is old, basic shit, y'all. People have been warning you about this since GloVe. What are you DOING??

Or, more to the point, why are you NOT DOING what you know you NEED to do?

I've been meaning to make this for a few days now...

If you're cis, I'd like you to read this article and learn that Missouri is about to enact a full ban on transition healthcare for transgender people. The deadline is April 27.

No cisgender person I've shared this with has had any idea that this is a ban, not a regulation - the requirements are impossible to meet.

I would also ask that you share this information with three other cis people today, preferably ones in or near #Missouri .

Thank you.

Just fyi. #openinformation

@Intotechnology AFAWK all Dutch universities are in the process of joining Mastodon at the moment 🙌

My daughter, who has had a degree in computer science for 25 years, posted this observation about ChatGPT on Facebook. It's the best description I've seen:

Great moments in software engineering

Newfoundland, ca. 1000 CE: A bug in the Google Maps route-planning algorithm at high latitudes causes Leif Eriksson and his crew to miss Greenland entirely. They instead become the first Europeans to reach North America. They name the place "Vimland" in honor of a text editor sacred to Odin. Emacs-using natives soon attack the Vikings on several Usenet groups.
