“You will never ever hear anything favorable to the right on this show. Nothing on for example the cost of things to government (meaning us) the downside of single parent families, crime rate of POCs, etc. that said, what’s presented is interesting.
A couple examples.
Bias in machine learning was cited and showed racism. Actually, most everything covered in this show was racist (a slight exaggeration). Nothing about how ML is much easier to fix than the alternative. If a person doesn’t hire people because of racism, you can’t easily tell. However you can throw data at a machine and see the results; it won’t hide them. It’s fixable, the person isn’t (well not easily)
Truckers and the surveillance society was an interesting show. And I happen to agree with the concerns of the speaker. But she and the host were terribly naive. There was nothing on how much of a problem was in trucking and all truckers (except very young ones) were noble, responsible people”
