Joint Oireachtas Committee on Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence and Children and Young People: Discussion

2:00 am

Mr. Rob Byrne:

With regard to what the Senator was saying about the bias loop, obviously AI constantly trains off everything that is posted around it but a lot of the content now being put out is made by AI itself and contains all the biases. We then run into an issue where it reinforces itself with said biases with the same content it is producing and training itself off of. This creates a massive loop and completely reinforces the ideas it already has. That is a real danger because it is constantly reinforcing those really negative things. It makes it tougher for the positive things or things differing from that to break through because there is such a volume of content.
