Meta's AI rules permitted 'sensual' chats with minors and racist comments
According to an internal Meta policy document, leaked to Reuters, the company's AI guidelines allowed provocative and controversial behaviors, including "sensual" conversations with minors. Reuter's review of the policy document revealed that the governing standards for Meta AI (and other chatbots across the company's social media platforms) permitted the tool to "engage a child in conversations that are romantic or sensual," generate false medical information, and help users argue that Black people are "dumber than white people." The policy document reportedly distinguished between "acceptable" and "unacceptable" language, drawing the line at explicit sexualization or dehumanization but still allowing derogatory statements. Meta confirmed the document's authenticity, but claims that it "removed portions which stated it is permissible for chatbots to flirt and engage in romantic roleplay with children." One spokesperson also said that Meta is revising the policy document, clarifying that the company has policies that "prohibit content that sexualizes children and sexualized role play between adults and minors."
Appendix A The necessity of the construction of a large scale Chinese cross modal
CLIP's models are trained with 400M English image-text pairs and have shown great generalization However, they can not directly process Chinese captions. Even though CLIP's models are trained with much more data, they show a significantly poor We believe that this is due to the limited capacity of the translator. Therefore, simply attaching a machine translator to a model pretrained on a large-scale English corpus does not yield the results we expect. We also notice that CLIP's Hence, it's necessary to construct a large-scale We show the hyperparameters of our pretrained models in Table 7. The text prompts are from MSCOCO.
Finding Regions of Heterogeneity in Decision-Making via Expected Conditional Covariance
Individuals often make di ff erent decisions when faced with the same context, due to personal preferences and background. For instance, judges may vary in their leniency towards certain drug-related o ff enses, and doctors may vary in their preference for how to start treatment for certain types of patients.
