From whence did this come? I have only heard it once in many lives and that was in the northern reaches of Iran or eastern Turkey.

Al Jazeera English
Aug 25, 2021

Army Major General William Taylor, with the U.S. military’s Joint Staff, told a news briefing more than 10,000 people were at Kabul airport waiting to be evacuated from Afghanistan.

The Pentagon claimed it evacuated some 19,000 people in the past 24 hours. More than 70,000 people, foreigners and Afghans, have been evacuated since August 14, the day before the Taliban swept into Kabul.

Al Jazeera's Charlotte Bellis has been talking to Afghans trying to leave, outside Kabul's International Airport.

Facebook Apologizes After Its AI Labels Black Men As 'Primates'

Quote:
Facebook issued an apology on behalf of its artificial intelligence software that asked users watching a video featuring Black men if they wanted to see more "videos about primates."

This is not Facebook's first time in the spotlight for major technical errors. Last year, Chinese President Xi Jinping's name appeared as "Mr. S***hole" on its platform when translated from Burmese to English. The translation hiccup seemed to be Facebook-specific, and didn't occur on Google, Reuters had reported.

However, in 2015, Google's image recognition software classified photos of Black people as "gorillas."

I ****ing knew it! AI has progressed to the point where it's now indistinguishable from humans - it's even become racist!

Incidentally, we're all primates. I have to laugh when our Archbishop is officially referred to as Primate of All Ireland!

The bit about the Chinese premier was pure class though.
