Artificial intelligence: Volvo immoral?
07/06/2021
Sometimes you really have to wonder where artificial intelligence will take us! We were recently warned by Google because a page was identified as "immoral". It was a car ad for a Volvo 164 E, not exactly the epitome of a particularly disreputable car.
However, Google's artificial intelligence was apparently able to identify content on the page that was only permissible for adults. We were given a list of possible reasons for this:
We weren't immediately sure ourselves what exactly about the Volvo advertised for sale was causing offense. Was it perhaps the phrase "robust Swede", the "coveted manual gearbox" or a combination of different words?
In any case, we asked Google for a (hopefully manual) re-examination of the advertisement page, because this elegant Volvo 164 Ecertainly doesn't look offensive to us.
