And some techniques to de-bias then become offensive to some people because of historical incorrectness and things like that. And so you can ask the question, you can ask two questions. The first question is, is it possible to produce an AI system that is not biased?

And the answer is absolutely not. And it's not because of technological challenges, although there are technological challenges to that. It's because Bias is in the eye of the beholder. Different people may have different ideas about what constitutes bias for a lot of things.

I mean, there are facts that are indisputable, but there are a lot of opinions or things that can be expressed in different ways. And so you cannot have an unbiased system. That's just an impossibility. And so what's the... What's the answer to this? And the answer is the same answer that we found in liberal democracy about the press. The press needs to be free and diverse.

We have free speech for a good reason. is because we don't want all of our information to come from a unique source. Because that's opposite to the whole idea of democracy and progress of ideas and even science, right? In science, people have to argue for different opinions and And science makes progress when people disagree and they come up with an answer and, you know, a consensus forms, right?

And it's true in all democracies around the world. So there is a future. which is already happening, where every single one of our interaction with the digital world will be mediated by AI systems, AI assistants, right? We're going to have smart glasses.

monument and there is a camera in the in the system that in in the glasses you can ask it like what can you tell me about this uh building on this monument you can be looking at a menu in a foreign language and the thing will translate it for you or you can do real-time translation if you speak different languages so

a lot of our interactions with the digital world are going to be mediated by those systems in the near future. Increasingly, the search engines that we're going to use are not going to be search engines. They're going to be dialogue systems that will just ask a question. And it will answer and then point you to perhaps an appropriate reference for it. But here is the thing.
