Machine Learning: The Next Bad Idea

  • Summary

  • It's the June 2021 episode of The Computer Exorcist Bonus Show!

    This month's articles were so bleak, I had to enlist the help of no less than Dr. Mike to help me get through them:

    How the Norks are getting dangerously good at hacking, while humanity lumbers on using naked Microsoft computers

    How programmers are "training" computers to "learn" on their own - and the disastrous (and usually racist) results that follow

    The false promise of technology vs. the reality, such as how Google's Voice to Text thing always messes up words consistently

    How nerds never, ever, ever consider the consequences of unbridled technology and the Pandora's boxes they keep opening, but feel selectively guilty on occasion

    Microsoft removing the ability to disable Windows Defender, and the arrogant nerds who CANNOT COMPREHEND why anyone would want to override things in certain cases

    And the "odd-even curse" of Microsoft Windows - They're all disasters, but it seems as though every other version is a greater disaster.

    Stay tuned at the end for a deleted scene, and thanks to Nolan Derosia for the music!
