Lessened Accountability Because Technology Replaces Humans for Many Tasks
WebM: Assange on Accountability
SOME hours ago Wikileaks shared this annotated old video where Julian Assange spoke about accountability when human tasks get outsourced to computing. I discussed this with him in the past in relation to "moderation" in Twitter (or other social control media) where they automated the whole process (nowadays they'd just call it "AI" because that buzzword is both vague and vogue).
It's a big problem when machines cannot be held accountable but at the same time inherit tasks where accountability is legally essential. █
