Female popes and Black vikings merely the latest, hyper-visual examples of decade-long censorship project. Orwell warned, "every picture has been repainted." Plus, a new innovator's dilemma for A.I.

" In 2019, I offered one explanation why every social media company’s “content moderation” efforts would likely fail. As a social network or A.I. grows in size and scope, it runs up against the same limitations as any physical society, organization, or network: heterogeneity. Or as I put it: “the inability to write universal speech codes for a hyper-diverse population on a hyper-scale social network.”
So AI may be great for some things ( brilliant for writing code, doing complex statistical calculations etc) but as soon as you hit the domaine sometimes called liberal arts, history, politics, philosophy, politics.. its going to be pretty useless. That makes sense. It can't interpret, it can only apply algorithms.
IF we could really apply the virtues of heterogeneity, diverse knowledge, opinions, slants, we probably could get hive mind wisdom. But AI seems to do the opposite, to go for a certain consensus with an agenda behind it. So it literally dumbs everything down.
It's unintentionally hilarious that AI is supposed to be SO SMART that its going to take over the world, but its so dumb that when asked for an image of a viking, it offers up a black man in viking attire.
