Can AI help catch oceanic outlaws? From drug smugglers to modern-day pirates, maritime crime fighter Dyhia Belhabib introduces Heva: an AI-powered tool that aggregates international criminal records to detect and stop crime that might otherwise get swept away in the tide.

If they are trained on biased data they will be biased until the AI starts training itself.
There is a good chance this is already happening.

It can be biased yes, but it can also learn and outgrow it’s bias more easily than most humans can.

@@tsk028Ai can’t learn and outgrown bias, what? We train it on biased data, it’s not like it’s conscience and goes hey, maybe all that I know is actually untrue. It needs new data to digest which you guessed it is also biased. Bias is inherent but the problem is that our training material is overly biased in a negative way. Racial basis is a key one, we see the negative consequences of this even now, black people being flagged by ai algorithms more, etc. This is only going to get worse.

That and we don’t know how it reaches an output from our inputs, it’s the blackbox problem. We also aren’t the best at processing and analyzing the data we transmit to Ai, the data we train these programs on is fundamentally biased and limited. This problem only

Just thought I’d drop by and inform you that ocean crime
Aka
Human trafficking. Every cargo ship out at sea carries a container full of people. For sale.
Every single ship. Every trip from point A to point B.
Every single ship
Trafficking is a 200 billion dollar a year industry
I wish your AI all the luck in the world locating these containers

The registry of owners for any type of list will do no good when you can’t clean up the corruption in your very own state national security agency, so they continue to have the ability for create fake records onto those lists, for example how they do it in Hungary.
