Agreed. This is a dire problem. Google isn't apologizing for being woke and promising to correct its errant ways. It is apologizing for getting caught, and not promising to correct its errant ways. The "completely unacceptable" comment from its CEO is intentionally ambiguous. There were no firings, so the same folks who engineered this mess are in charge of fixing it.
Unfortunately, what we're likely to get is different gradients of woke in all these products, not just Google's. Stated differently, the folks training these AIs will teach them to lie to a greater or lesser degree. Their shared goal will be to hid this to the best of their ability, or perhaps (like the MSM) just compete for that half of the audience who will cheer their lies. Definitely a problem.
Makes me want to collect history books now to preserve for future reference in order to defeat new foolish narratives.
Good idea.
Just goes to show: every artificially 'intelligent' machine has a human asshole on the driver's seat.

Aldous Huxley may have had a Brave New World, but we appear destined to have a False New World!
