Study Notes
Machine Learning
- Machine learning is a branch of AI that uses statistical methods to get computers to perform tasks without explicit instructions.
- Example: Spam detection
Spam Detection
- Machine learning systems use statistical methods to classify email as spam or not.
- Email features used for classification:
- presence of words like lottery, inheritance, or typos
- familiarity of the email sender
- The system assigns a probability to each email being spam using a statistical model.
- This model is trained on a dataset of labelled emails (spam or not spam).
Supervised Learning
- Supervised learning algorithms learn from data that is labeled with the correct answer.
- They try to find a pattern in the data that predicts the correct answer for new data.
- Example: predicting drug trafficking sentences given the quantity trafficked.
Legal Dispositionism and AI
- Dispositionism: Attributing actions to internal reasons, motives, and intentions.
- The law frequently assumes that people have control over their actions and are responsible for their choices.
- AI raises challenges to dispositionism because AI systems are often seen as lacking agency or intent.
The Missing Person Problem
- The law is ill-equipped for AI because it assumes human agents as the primary actors.
- AI systems perform tasks that were previously only done by humans, raising questions about who is liable.
- We need to identify new actors and responsibilities when AI systems are involved.
The AI and the Situation
- Psychologists emphasize how external situations influence human actions, contradicting the dispositionist view.
- The AI’s situation includes factors like the regulator, manufacturer, programmer, operator, and users.
- We should not focus solely on the AI; its environment and context are also crucial.
DABUS Case Study
- The Artificial Inventor Project argues that DABUS, an AI system, should be registered as a patent inventor.
- DABUS is described as having the ability to perceive, think, and feel like a person.
- However, the court decisions on DABUS have been mixed, with no jurisdiction recognizing it as an inventor so far.
Anthropomorphic Bias and the Android Fallacy
- AI research has identified an "anthropomorphic bias" – attributing human-like qualities to AI systems.
- Legal scholars have called this the "android fallacy," personifying mathematical computations.
- We need to be wary of legal narratives that dispositionalize AI; AI systems are ultimately statistical computations.
AI as Statistical Computation
- AI systems are not autonomous, but rather follow statistical algorithms and trained models.
- We need to understand that AI systems are not "thinking" or "feeling" but rather are mathematical models that operate based on data.
Elon Musk and the Future of AI
- The video mentions Elon Musk's concerns about the future of AI, particularly the development of artificial superintelligence.
- It highlights ongoing debates and developments in the AI field.
