So in criminal justice, the system learns that younger defendants are more likely to re-offend if they're released before their trial, and so recommends treating them more harshly. So these kinds of, again, fairly crude statistical patterns that we've known how to do for a long time, but it's not the same kind of technology behind ChatGPT

It is not something that's advancing quickly, and it is something that I think we should be pretty skeptical about.

Exactly. It's making decisions about the future based on the past. So no matter how accurately it works... I think, you know, kind of on a fundamental philosophical level, we should think about, is this a just way to treat people, right? Should you deny someone their freedom in the criminal justice system because of the behavior of people like them in the past?

So that's, yeah, something that's deeply questionable as well.

Yeah, image generation AI has been advancing very quickly. And over the last year or so, companies have been working on video generation AI. So yes, I think to some extent, the hype around this is real. I think deepfakes are already a problem. Specifically, the thing I'm most concerned about is deepfake nudes.

And this has affected, from what I can tell, hundreds of thousands of people, primarily women, as you can imagine, around the world. And I think we desperately need regulation to curb some of the damage here. Now, in the political sphere, there's also concern that deepfakes can be used to trick voters and that sort of thing. I'm less convinced of that. There has been a lot of alarmism about that.

But I think something we should think about is that In a world where we're online and we have no easy way to tell what's real and what's not, what does that mean for the erosion of trust in the online environment? And how easy that makes it for powerful people, politicians and others to evade accountability by claiming that even real videos are actually deepfakes.
