Intel’s bullshit filter exposes disputed information on the Internet

[_giu]

the perfect platform for trolls!

Exactly, this does not strike me as helpful.

I much prefer the Bayesian stupid filter because each one of us can tune it to our personal definition of stupid. And it makes stupid disappear instead of highlighting it.

Not just trolls but the opportunities for abuse are tremendous. Think about how political and religious groups could use this to sway opinions and quiet desent.

Yet another reincarnation of thirdvoice.

Someone is going to get this right.

Another reincarnation of crit.org. Wikalong is still online, but it's gratuitously incompatible with Firefox 3 (which is Firefox's fault, not Wikalong's.)

I still don't see how a computer is going to be able to handle the complex logic and detect whether or now something makes sense of not.

The best way to handle disputed information is to do your own research. Don't count on a computer to tell you what is right and wrong.
