2 months agoI’d call it “implausible deniability”, everyone knows what it was, but people can weasel around and deny it and pretend it meant something / nothing / whatever instead of actually doing something useful.
Even if Musk came out and said it wasn’t a nazi salute I’d have a hard time believing it after he unbanned nazis on twitter, pushed their rhetoric, cozied up to right wing parties… and his face looked more like he was ripping his heart out than giving it to someone. “The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”
Which is why we need laws about human responsibility for decisions made by AI (or software in general).
