However, the addiction technology has produced cannot be easily remedied. In the meantime, people continue to suffer.

Google redraws the borders on maps depending on who’s looking

The Silicon Valley firm alters maps under political pressure and the inscrutable whims of tech executives

Phi Beta Iota: Google is a dishonest company on multiple fronts — it also manipulates search to manipulate votes and sales — lies for sale to the highest bidder — while digitally assassinating those whose view ares not shared by the minions, any one of whom — as with NSA searches on old girlfriends — can destroy a person or product they do not like.

A Former Search Wizard Explains Why Artificial Intelligence May Be a Bit of a Challenge

Artificial intelligence is the next evolution of digital technology and experts predict we are going to rely on AI as much as the Internet. While AI is amazing, many projects built around AI fail to deliver the promised results. Louis Monier, the Chief Scientist at Node, one of the founders of Altavista, and headed Airbnb’s AI Lab, spoke with Forbes about his opinions on AI in the interview: “The Little-Acknowledged Truth About AI—According To The Founder Of Altavista,” DarkCyber wants to mention that Monier worked at the Google, which, for DarkCyber, is an important factoid.

AWS AI Improves Its Accuracy According to Amazon

An interesting bit of jargon creeps into “On Benchmark Data Set, Question-Answering System Halves Error Rate.” That word is “transfer.” Amazon, it seems, is trying to figure out how to reuse data, threshold settings, and workflow outputs.

Google — a dictator unlike anything the world has ever known

Story at-a-glance

  • Robert Epstein is a Harvard trained psychologist who has exposed how Google is manipulating public opinion through their search engine so they can change the results of elections and many other important areas
  • His research shows how Google is using new techniques of manipulation that have never existed before in human history. If this weren’t bad enough, these tools are ephemeral and leave no paper trail of their devious behavior
  • According to Epstein’s calculations, Google can shift 15 million votes leading up to the upcoming U.S. presidential 2020 election
  • Because Google has become and everyday tool that's used for more than 90% of searches worldwide, the company has likely determined the outcomes of 25% of the national elections in the world
  • Search suggestions — shown in a drop-down menu when you begin to type a search term — is another powerful manipulation tool capable of turning a 50/50 split among undecided voters into a 90/10 split, with no one having the slightest idea that they've been manipulated
