MR.RAJESH ACHANTA’s Selective Amnesia essay—FACT CHECK—deep dives research of both myths and real, and reveals the surprisingly deep roots of the facts that are made, not born.Made by Myths and Truths. Made by Intelligence and [now] AI.
MR.RAJESH essay brilliantly demonstrates the AI Paradoxes.When we use google or other AIs’—there’s always a disclaimer /warning by TECH CO —AI overviews are experimental. Info quality may vary./ AI responses may include mistakes" or similar, which advise users to verify information.
I may be wrong,as of now,it appears to me that AI facts/truths are based on cherry-picked Training—sort of library—full of theory and devoid of practice.When I interact with AI who knows more than me,it’s able to shape my thinking, my ideas and opinions about a subject. Many a times my perception of reality changes and “because I act on the basis of our perceptions” AI force changes not only my thinking but my actions.
The truth is not as straightforward as it seems. There are many truths, some of them more honest than others. “On most issues,” writes Hector Macdonald in his book Truth: How the Many Sides to Every Story Shape Our Reality, “there are multiple truths we can choose to communicate. Our choice of truth will influence how those around us perceive an issue and react to it.”
We are often left with several truths, some more flattering to us than others. What we choose to see, and what we share with others, says a lot about who we are.
“There is no worse lie than a truth misunderstood by those who hear it.”
— William James
I Admire MR.RAJESH’s contributions on AI impact on our world.
MR.RAJESH logically sums it —Truth often requires nuance. The myth fits on a bumper sticker.And between the two, the bumper sticker has much better distribution.
Thank You. The Hector Macdonald and William James quotes are excellent additions to this conversation. You put a finger on something I was only scratching the surface of here: this piece asks why do false facts persist? but the deeper question is how do we decide what counts as true in the first place? That's a much harder problem — and as it happens, it's exactly where next Saturday's essay is going. Stay tuned.
