Baidu is trawling the EEVblog forum

<< < (17/18) > >>

RJSV:
Point being, using REAL examples, now:
   I had mentioned, BEFORE they disappeared my file contents, had mentioned that 'Covid shut-downs are interfering with your office functioning properly'.
That's criticism.
   'Your office is engaging in nonproductive 'virtue signalling', a self-declared (racial and social) inclusion of all...'
My words there were not so harsh, but perceived as such.
More criticism.  You cannot criticise, without consequences.  My loss being a couple thousand bucks, and more than a year delay to correct that little 'glitch', in consistency.
   Others have lost their jobs.  Go ahead and doubt that.
That's called Gas Lighting,...

I have to laugh at anyone who thinks Baidu is doing anything nefarious when crawling websites. It's search engine for cat's sakes!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baidu

Baidu has the second largest search engine in the world, and held a 76.05% market share in China's search engine market. In December 2007, Baidu became the first Chinese company to be included in the NASDAQ-100 index. As of May 2018, Baidu's market cap rose to US$99 billion. In October 2018, Baidu became the first Chinese firm to join the United States-based computer ethics consortium Partnership on AI.

No idea what "computer ethics consortium on AI" supposed to mean.  :-//
Google says that's an NGO, or else said it's nobody.

Meanwhile, a couple of years ago USA ratified for DoD the development of lethal autonomous/AI-driven weapons.  That act was justified as a "zero sum game" in response to the Chinese military.  So neither of the two states is innocent when it comes to ethics about AI.

FYI, you are responding to a necro by a known China fanboy :popcorn:

Kinda surpsised to see him again, I thought he rage quit the forum years ago.

Ed.Kloonk:
The key development since that time has been the widespread wary-ness of committees and indeed consortiums that, for example, have words like ethics shoved in the mission statement.

Systemic pander groups are on the nose.
