Ben Shapiro Reveals What We Really Need To Fear About AI Chatbots

Greg WilsonFebruary 7, 2023

It’s not the machines we have to fear, it’s the humans who are programming them with woke algorithms, Ben Shapiro His listeners were warned Tuesday

The podcast host and best-selling author “The Ben Shapiro Show” You can see that there were many experiments done with ChatGPT Machine learning tools and other machine-learning tools continue to show that artificial intelligence is somewhere to the left AOC. ChatGPT claimed that it was wrong to use racial slurs even if nobody hears them, and that this was the only way for millions to avoid nuclear annihilation.

“So what does this mean?” Shapiro was mused. “It means that someone in the back room programmed ChatGPT to say that the absolute highest value in the hierarchy of values is you must never use a racial slur. There are no other higher values.”

The programmer decides what is moral, what isn’t, and filters it through. “objective” Shapiro stated that artificial intelligence gives it a strange sheen of technological credibility. He said that such a dramatic example is likely to highlight the many subtler ways artificial intelligence shades the information it sends to the left.

The subjectivity being revealed in programs like ChatGPT is similar to that seen in social media platforms, Shapiro said, noting that in those cases humans also blamed machines when their bias was called out.

“You’ll see people at Facebook when they’re suppressing particular content, blame the algorithm,” Shapiro said. “You see the same thing over at YouTube. It’s the algorithm that’s devoting particular results. And at Twitter, before Elon Musk, it was the algorithm that had decided that only right-wing accounts would be banned, while left-wing accounts would be essentially broadcast far and wide.”

“It was all the algorithm,” he continued. “[But] there was, in fact, a Wizard of Oz who was sitting behind a curtain and who was tweaking that. And now, with the rise of chat AI, ChatGPT, and these very sophisticated AIs, we’re getting the same argument over again, and it’s used by powerful people in order to shield you from what they are doing.”

While many people fear artificial intelligence will take jobs away from humans, Shapiro said that is not the real danger.

“Human beings always find new jobs,” he said. “This has been the case up until now. Maybe this will be the end of it, but I doubt it.”

The real hazard, Shapiro said, is that what we think is objective, computer-generated information is claptrap contaminated by Leftist ideology.

“We have delegated enormous power to AI and then we pretend that the machine is thinking for itself,” he said. “This is dangerous stuff.”
