this must be why the new AI won't answer questions about Chinese atrocities but it'll talk about other countries problems all day long....
bring up the Uyghurs and watch it start to answer before deleting the text and then refuse to talk.

When we hear the follow up story about how management used AI algorithms to decide who they should cut, this is going to start looking quite suspicious.

Reply to comment by AlternativeFormer559 in BBC and Gary Lineker: Tweets decision comes at high price for BBC by Errorboros
What gets me is that it's not even fucking progressive! When all this kicked off I looked up the tweet and the policy and I was just shocked at just how...tepid the tweet actually was compared to what I expected considering how angry some people were/are. I mean, we're at the point where saying you don't like a policy and stating some facts about it is considered progressive? We can't accept this. We cannot concede this to conservatives. Reality is not negotiable.

Microsoft cut a particular "Ethics and Society" team, but the original article notes:
Microsoft still maintains an active Office of Responsible AI, which is tasked with creating rules and principles to govern the company’s AI initiatives. The company says its overall investment in responsibility work is increasing despite the recent layoffs.
While surely a big deal for people on the eliminated team, this sounds like a minor reshuffle for Microsoft.
In general, figuring out what an effective "responsible AI" team actually does on a day-to-day basis has been a puzzle industry-wide. My impression is that there's been a fair amount of experimentation, and this action might be shutting down a particular approach that is now perceived by Microsoft leadership as less effective than alternatives.
Or else GPT4 hacked the HR system and liquidated some potential foes.
