That's not actually right, although it's not a great programmer, not even a good one, it can produce unique code. And typically programming is a lot of looking at documentation, which could end up being out of date, then googling solutions to common bugs from those docs, others figured out. Even if what you are making is unique when looked at from a macro perspective, it's comprised of a bunch of code that been written millions of times. I also am fairly skilled in programming.
My method got me in some patents for machine learning. So it's odd to me what you are saying.
Lol. No thanks. Machine learning and AI is a tool. Just as a gun is a tool. Noone goes after the manufacturer of the tool nor its inventor because a tool is not good or evil. It's the user that dictates that. You could argue a person or group could abuse machine learning and create an "evil" ai. But that would be similar to somone abusing a weapon manufacturing process to make a dirty bomb.
The Machine learning I do, is object detection and object segmentation for stores to know if something needs to be stocked or if there is a spill. Or, if there are cracks on the road that needs filled. I am in complete control over what is or is not detected.
The company Western Digital came to my company asking to create an AI to trace a protestors back in time using cameras, social media etc and see where they live. I denied their request becuase it was clearly evil. I also made sure they knew not just that it would be abusive, but immoral. Maybe that didn't stop them but because I am in this position I at least could stop them and warn them temporarily.
