Q2) Did Google find that History can represent “latency bias”? Findings in biology/psychology can lead to exclusion bias? Economic theory can lead to inequality bias? Etc. |thread= {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1072629410350665732 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/ericweinstein |username=ericweinstein |content=1/4 Google literally tells you how they bias your view of the world. Only they call it unbiasing. And unbiasing is supposedly politically neutral. It’s just that in the view of woke engineers, conservatives are typically biased by history, privilege, biological essetnialism, etc. |timestamp=11:09 PM · Dec 11, 2018 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1072629415941730310 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/ericweinstein |username=ericweinstein |content=4/4 I hope someone took a shot at this line of questioning. But I’m writing this as a non conservative because this “no bias” game is moronic. We don’t need ‘fresh faces’. We need tough folks in congress w/ technical backgrounds who can operate in all areas where Google operates. |timestamp=11:09 PM · Dec 11, 2018 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1072629414645633024 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/ericweinstein |username=ericweinstein |content=3/4 Q3) If you found conservatives were likely to believe in more traditional interpretations of Gender, Biology, Markets, Military Power, Ethnicity, Religion, Borders, Psychology, Wealth, Achievement, would they be more likely to be *unbiased* by Google? That’s how this works. |timestamp=11:09 PM · Dec 11, 2018 }} |timestamp=11:09 PM · Dec 11, 2018 }}
