An AI “bias meter” that would flag anything but the most anodyne, status quo-affirming “civility” discourse as “biased,” make meaningful critique of power impossible, and leave the powerful unbothered by public oversight to do as they please.

We are accelerating towards a very dark place.

This, courtesy of the owner of the LA Times, is the worst “tech solution for journalism” idea since the CueCat.
Soon-Shiong does also plan to get directly involved with how the Times presents its news stories to readers. Speaking to Jennings as the latter hosted a radio show Wednesday, the • billionaire revealed that, behind the scenes, he is working on developing a "bias meter" powered by artificial intelligence that will be placed on both opinion and news stories. Soon-Shiong said that the hope is to roll out the new feature, which will use the technology to seemingly warn readers that his own reporters are biased, as early as next month. "Whether in news or opinion... you have a bias meter," Soon-Shiong explained to Jennings. "So that someone could understand as a reader that the source of the article has some level of bias. ... And then ... the reader can press a button and get both sides of that exact same story, based on that story, and then give comments."
