Even worse, might it enable more animals to be confined by 'optimising' welfare & solving health problems?

What do you think?

another example of the vague use of "AI" in the genAI whitewashing. This has to be iterative machine learning (because there either is or isn't a croc), but it's being lumped in with chatGPT and other slop. #AIWashing

AI has become a catch-all term for any mildly impressive tech. But let's be real, not every algorithm or automated process deserves the "AI" label. Maybe we should start calling it out when companies overuse the term just to sound cool? #AIWashing

Llamar a todo «inteligencia artificial» no solo es ridículo: también es contraproducente
En un panorama saturado de productos que aseguran incorporar «inteligencia artificial» para hacerse absurdamente los modernos, lo sorprendente no es que muchas veces esa etiqueta sea engañosa. Lo realmente interesante es que, según estudios recientes, hacerlo puede dañar directamente las ventas. Un trabajo académico de la Washington State University y la Temple University, publicado en el Journal of Hospitality Marketing & Management y citado también en The Wall Street Journal, titulado «Adverse impacts of revealing the presence of ‘Artificial Intelligence (AI)’ technology in product and service descriptions on purchase intentions : the mediating role of emotional trust and the moderating

Este colapso no es solo sobre una empresa. Es una señal de advertencia para todo el ecosistema. Demuestra que la debida diligencia técnica no es opcional.

Es el único antídoto contra las narrativas seductoras pero vacías.

Builder.ai once promised AI-built apps with a click. Turns out, it was just manual coding by 700 engineers. The $1.5B startup has collapsed into bankruptcy and debt. A cautionary tale for the AI era.

I really admire the innocence of this state-owned employee who looks at the distributional politics of our world and believes a better one will somehow emerge from technological progress.

in the good old days, we'd call this greenwashing, we need a new term and AIwashing sounds terrible.

How this Microsoft-backed billion-dollar London startup made 700 engineers sitting in India pose as AI TIMESOFINDIA.COM London-based Builder.ai, once valued at $1.5 billion and backed by Microsoft and Qatar's sovereign wealth fund, has filed for bankruptcy after reports that its "AI-powered" app development platform was actually operated by Indian engineers, said to be around 700 of them, pretending to be artificial intelligence. The company now owes $85 million to Amazon and $30 million to Microsoft in cloud computing fees, while approximately 1,000 employees have lost their jobs. The failure highlights growing concerns about "AI washing," companies rebranding conventional technology services as artificial intelligence to attract investment in the current AI boom.

Former employees online are also claiming the “AI” was actually cheap offshore labor. A practice known as “AI Washing” - like “Green Washing” claims that a product is green - when it isn’t.
