"When we design AI systems, we’re not just making technical choices. We’re making moral and philosophical decisions."
"In an analogy to AI,the risks of harm posed by AI: Research shows women, minorities, and marginalized groups tend to get fewer options or opportunities in systems driven by AI models."
"The problem, is that a lot of this harm and unfairness is baked in: it’s in the training data, in the models we chose, and in the trade-offs we incorporate into the AI system. Existing ethical problems only get magnified by the model."
"philosophers and computer scientists, and the goal is to help industry. That means corporations as well as startups, or organizations like law enforcement or hospitals, to develop and deploy AI systems responsibly and ethically,"
"A lot of the companies come to us and say, ‘Here’s a model that we are planning to use. Is this fair?’"
"The biggest risk that AI holds comes from the fact that it is systematic and efficient. So the risk is, if you create a bad system, it is systematically and efficiently bad."
"But the flip side of it is that if you create a good system that is better than now, it [will be] systematically and efficiently good, and will make it systematically and efficiently better than now."
"If we haven’t yet, we have to face the fact that the world is a massively unethical place, and we create a ton of suffering, needless suffering. Any shift is an opportunity to fix some of those [problems], and any shift holds the risk that we will just create more."
Young though he was, his radiant energy produced such an impression of absolute reliability that Hedgewar made him the first sarkaryavah, or general secretary, of the RSS.
- Gopal Mukund Huddar
Largely because of the influence of communists in London, Huddar's conversion into an enthusiastic supporter of the fight against fascism was quick and smooth. The ease with which he crossed from one worldview to another betrays the fact that he had not properly understood the world he had grown in.
Huddar would have been 101 now had he been alive. But then centenaries are not celebrated only to register how old so and so would have been and when. They are usually celebrated to explore how much poorer our lives are without them. Maharashtrian public life is poorer without him. It is poorer for not having made the effort to recall an extraordinary life.
I regret I was not there to listen to Balaji Huddar's speech [...] No matter how many times you listen to him, his speeches are so delightful that you feel like listening to them again and again.
By the time he came out of Franco's prison, Huddar had relinquished many of his old ideas. He displayed a worldview completely different from that of the RSS, even though he continued to remain deferential to Hedgewar and maintained a personal relationship with him.
