Your video interview is with Timnit Gebru & Émile P. Torres, whoever the
heck they are. Gebru contributed to a paper that also bears Bender's name,
and now Bender is a transhumanist-hating AGI-hating man-hating
eugenicist?!? lol

And who cares anyway? They are correct that it is impossible for a large
language model to learn a language like Bengali from scratch. Sundar
Pichai of Google lied or misspoke on 60 Minutes. Probably the latter, as he
is not actually an AI guy, and/or 60 Minutes did some selective editing for
the effect. AI hype sells commercials.
