Google Assistant making calls pretending to be human not only without disclosing that it's a bot, but adding "ummm" and "aaah" to deceive the human on the other end with the room cheering it... horrifying. Silicon Valley is ethically lost, rudderless and has not learned a thing.

"It's just a demo" people aren't getting the full scale of problems. Also Google putting a bot identifier at the beginning of call doesn't solve the many problems.https://twitter.com/getaclue_1/status/994918625906700289 …

What’s weird is The Verge released a whole PR article about Google’s focus on well being, going as far to highlight the work of a design ethicist. It reinforced to me how ill-equipped tech is at ethics and self policing. https://www.theverge.com/2018/5/10/17333574/google-android-p-update-tristan-harris-design-ethics …

Nobody actually reads I Robot anymore. They just watch the movie on Netflix.

I'm still failing to see why it being [CURRENT YEAR] makes this such a bad thing. So far that's all you've said. "Now back to typing out the obvious bad things about this." Proceeds to say nothing about why it's bad. Is the year the only issue with why this is a bad thing?

Not a bad idea and not deceptive as it's disclosed as a robot... I think the problem is you've gone out on a limb and are defending a weak position.

Should we be equally concerned about Smart Compose and other AI-based text suggestions? I am.https://www.tomshardware.com/news/google-duplex-stealing-voices,37031.html …

As regards the necessary shift in how tech reckons with its place in the world, I think we are still closer to the beginning than the end.

Your earlier tweets spawned a good conversation at work. Looking forward to your longer version! It continues to amaze me how many here don’t think about the ethics.

I saved up pennies from my menial labor job as a tween—legally too young; I snuck in—to buy a computer to learn to code.
Anyway, writing longer.
if it is but they have a direction where they want to be (it will be easier for them to go through social and see what ppl want to actually use this for)
2) assuming that this will be used for just good is too good of you
