Intel details Bleep, which uses AI to redact audio when it detects “hate speech” and lets users toggle how much they want to hear

But On A Sliding Scale James Farrell / SiliconANGLE : Intel's new hate speech-purging AI Bleep comes under criticism Tom Phillips / Eurogamer.net : Intel's AI-powered Bleep tech lets you choose exactly how much online hate speech you hear Tristan Greene / The Next Web : Intel's new AI helps you get just the right amount of hate speech in your game chat Jon Porter / The Verge : Today I learned about Intel's AI sliders that filter online gaming abuse Tweets: @chrismessina : Maybe Intel should prioritize AI that is able to “read the room” before productizing AI called “Bleep” that enables gamers to turn up the in-game hate speech...? 🙅🏻‍♂ ️ https://t.co/ZySN9QgBtE /by @lukeplunkett #BetterHumans https://t.co/eGgt3TJkdB Nathan House / @gotonathan : Intel is launching an AI-powered tool called bleep that will detect and redact “hate” speech in real-time audio. It lets users (gamers, in this case) toggle the “racism” setting to “some,” if you want to keep a little bit of racism! #cybersec https://www.vice.com/... Kelsey D. Atherton / @athertonkd : I'd somehow missed yesterday that Intel's racism dial was on the user side, not the broadcaster side, which undercuts the one possible market for it (streamers looking for the bare minimum to avoid responsibility for their words) https://www.vice.com/... Lorenzo Franceschi-Bicchierai / @lorenzofb : Intel is luanching an AI-powered product to help gamers customize what kind and how much hate speech they want to see. The app includes an “on” and off" switch for the N-word. https://www.vice.com/... https://twitter.com/... Vice Games / @waypoint : Intel's ‘Bleep’ is an AI solution that will ignore a systemic problem rather than address it. https://www.vice.com/... Rob Zacny / @robzacny : The minute I saw this I thought about Dril's racism knob tweet and, indeed, that's basically what it is. https://www.vice.com/... Ed Zitron / @edzitron : https://twitter.com/... https://twitter.com/... Chandana Ekanayake / @ekanaut : I've watched the presentation and still can't believe this is a real thing https://kotaku.com/... https://twitter.com/... Katiya / @stickehbun : nope do not pass Go do not collect $200 throw this idea right in the trashcan https://twitter.com/... Paul Armstrong / @paul__armstrong : Now that's a billion dollar company. https://twitter.com/... Michael Learmonth / @learmonth : “Racism” and “White Nationalism” sliders can be set to “none,” “some,” “most,” or “all,” and a separate on and off toggle for the “N-word.” https://www.vice.com/... via @vice Dan Greene / @greene_dm : Intel is making an automated audio redacter with toggles for how often you want to hear the n word and sliders for your desired level of homophobia. Just an incredible artifact. Really crystallizes the dominant approach to content moderation https://kotaku.com/... Jason Koebler / @jason_koebler : these sliders jfc https://www.vice.com/... Fosh / @xfosh : Adjusting racism and homophobia sliders on that Intel product like I'm adjusting my firewall settings to allow specific traffic @kotaku : Intel, A ‘White Nationalism’ Slider Ain't It https://kotaku.com/... https://twitter.com/... Martin Sfp Bryant / @martinsfp : I saw a screenshot of this retweeted earlier and assumed it *must* be a parody. Nope. https://t.co/CLo89kXpKW

    Maybe Intel should prioritize AI that is able to “read the room” before productizing AI called “Bleep” that enables gamers to turn up the in-game hate speech...? 🙅🏻‍♂ ️ https://t.co/ZySN9QgBtE /by @lukeplunkett #BetterHumans https://t.co/eGgt3TJkdB
