I agree that it seems reasonable to expect some people to be blinded by distrust. That’s a good point.
Reading O’Neil’s article, i like the quadrant model more than i expected. That seems like a useful increase in resolution. However i disagree about which demographics fall into which quadrant. Even if we limit our scope to the USA, i’m sure many women and people of color are worried about machines displacing humanity (Q2).
I think there is plenty of software in the world that encodes racist or otherwise unfair policies (as in the Q4 paragraphs), and the fact that this discrimination is sometimes concealed by the term ‘AI’ is a serious issue. But i think this problem deserves a more rigorous defense than this O’Neil article.
Very depressing!
