Their concern is not solely based on the gene modification. The impact of introducing a new crop is bigger than that. The golden rice is patented and that often comes with a ton of regulations the local farmers have no control over.

While I wish for there to be a good way to solve the food problem AND find a good use for gene modification, I don’t think that this particular instance is it…

How do they know that you wrote it yourself and didn’t just steal it?

This is a rule to protect themselves. If there is ever a case around this, they can push the blame to the person that committed the code for breaking that rule.

Not op, but I really liked this video, as it explains quite a bit. It is of course a biased video, but still…

I tried Chatgpt, but got no result. Maybe you could give it a try. It always asked for more context, which I was unable to give…

I may have oversimplified my statement. Of course an objective description of reality is impossible. A curse on all social sciences and statistics.

My post was more a showerthought…even if the data is incomplete, whatever THAT data implies will also be the stereotype the AI will learn. Misrepresentation of minorities in sample data is absolutely nothing new. But even if the data WAS complete, it would probably still be very biased. I think we often don’t notice structural discrimination and AI would simply reproduce those and confront us with it. In that sense I think it is a very interesting way to get a sort of ‘outside look’ at our own society and that is something that’s very useful.

I wonder if this is because AI is trained on data that ‘is’ and has therefore no concept of how it ‘should be’. Maybe it is an effective mirror of society…

Eh…life is an MMRPG, so a bit of lag is normal…
