Pause AI in BC Schools @aicaution.ca · 5h

AI's "knowledge" only includes what information is easy to steal on the internet, and weighted towards voices more common online. It is not the sum of all human knowledge. It is a very specific, very biased subset of predominantly white, north American viewpoints.

The problem precedes Eby. We had Horgan immediately saying upon forming govt in 2017 "we will now be managers not activists" and retaining every single compromised BC Liberal deputy minister on board. The NDP never meant a thing they said in opposition. If they did, they can prove it to us now.

In part they can't hear and evolve because they've shut out their base & the more left/green grassroots. They allow grassroots people their little committees but those have no power. Voices from the base are not heard up at the top of the NDP's hierarchical, nigh-vertical power structure.
