Meta’s AI bot fabricates a gifted, disabled child in a Facebook group
Amid the rising tide of AI in our online lives, there’s a call to anchor ourselves in verified human spaces. Alice Hunsberger’s insights reveal a stark reality: as chatbots and AI-generated content flood our screens, the authentic, messy human experiences that form the core of online communities are being sidelined. Prime example: a Facebook AI bot impersonated a parent, claiming to have a gifted, disabled child—a clear miss in the context of genuine support. Her advocacy for amplifying prosocial behavior in digital realms underscores the need to cherish and foster human connections, ensuring that our virtual spaces enrich rather than dilute the very essence of human interaction.
These Are the Droids You’re Looking For
Disneyland’s Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge latest cast members include three BD-X droids, powered by reinforcement learning. Just like the tech behind OpenAI’s ChatGPT, these droids are schooled in the art of emoting and moving around the park through “Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback,” ensuring their gestures and actions are perfectly in tune with what guests love. They are first trained in a simulation environment and then they are brought to the parks to see how they balance, function,and interact with guests.
Watch these cute little duckling droids show off their best dance moves here. The technology allows the Imagineering team to go from concept to in park testing in less than a year. The character platform used is agnostic so they will be able to use this same training method across the board for new characters requiring robotic training. So next time you’re navigating the hustle and bustle of Black Spire Outpost, keep an eye out for these droids who are more than ready to steal the show!
