El aporte de la inteligencia artificial … a las sociedades del conocimiento / Derecho a la Igualdad (UNESCO)

ByEdward Eggleston

“Hay muchos motivos para ser precavidos y no confiar tanto en los algoritmos como árbitros finales de las decisiones, ya que, en el mejor de los casos, solo proporcionan perspectivas útiles. Cualquier reclamo de justicia de los algoritmos debe calificarse por el hecho de que el proceso de toma de decisiones algorítmica tiene dos elementos clave: i) programadores humanos que toman decisiones críticas para enmarcar el problema y la validez del resultado, y ii) datos que pueden representar sesgos históricos, tergiversar grupos o no representarlos en absoluto.” (UNESCO)

Como poderia alguém saber isso, uma vez que coisas assim– começos e fins – não são conhe­cíveis pelos contemporâneos, pelas pessoas que as vivem? ‘ (p. 97) – ques­tiona Bauman de forma cristalina para enquadrar o seu entendimento quanto ao estatuto atual da modernidade.” ( P. André)
