«We have decided to REMOVE the miner in the app. The next version will remove the option to get free features via mining.

But the cost of creating vast amounts of de-biased data edited by human experts, just to train a DL model, makes not worth to replace humans with AI in first place! Further, even if you had trained a DL model that really is fair, you have no evidence to convince a judge or a user about the fairness of any decision, since the DL will give no explanations».

Parallèlement, le harcèlement et les menaces adressées aux militants par rapport à leur couleur de peau, leur religion ou leur orientation sexuelle pullulent sur Facebook.

Nous serions donc de ceux qui voient le verre à moitié vide, alors qu’Axelle Lemaire nous invite à le voir « à moitié plein ». Malheureusement, un code illisible transmis au format papier, c’est pour nous, en 2016, un verre complètement vide.
