much thanks to @gary_host_laptop for the logo design :)
Welcome to China
Theyre already there
Omnipresent super-soakers full of paint will ensure they wont.
One of those spray paint cans on a stick they use to paint lines on the ground
we should test edge cases to ensure safety, let's shove one down this guys' throat
Why don't you volunteer to be the test case Larry?
You want a dystopia? Because that's how you get a dystopia.
They do, one with them at the top
The fascists think they die happy.
Yeah but what is "good" behaviour?
What if we just get the AI cameras to “hallucinate” our good behaviour?
1984 was not a manual
Only if I can use AI and cameras to follow police around, map them, and use pattern recognition to make sure they behave as well.
Nope. It is only for the peons. Dissidents will have ANY behavior be seen as bad and the fascists will be identified specifically to train the AI to ignore them or automatically rule them out as suspects. Blame their victims and not the perps.
BTW, people like Zuckerberg fucking HATE people like you and me. He considered the people who trusted him with their emails (when he was in university and coming up with the idea of Facebook) to be absolute idiots and even more so for trusting him with that information. He lives his life in a way that insures that we know as little about him as possible. He lives in a compound that is impossible to view via satellite imagery AND he has the actual house he lives in surrounded by dummy buildings specifically so that people cannot spy on his with telescopes. He is obsessed with privacy and probably has never been seen on CCTV in years.
Well yeah my comment was sarcasm.
I am aware, but sometimes my autism still demands I write it anyway. In my experience comments read by people can still inform them even if they have no idea who wrote them and the reason why. I just want to leave the world a better place than I found it.
I wish I could do the same with veganism :) Spreading love and equality.
But I just get an army of haters.
Also I expect there should be more surveillance around powerful people like Larry Ellison, right?
The more powerful, the more important is to ensure good behavior, and the more public / peer-reviewed the AI model and its logs should be to avoid tampering/laundering.
They consider themselves to be gods and so far better than you and me that any behavior on their part is none of your business (even if it directly affected you and your entire family and community) but if you so much have a 10 minute variation in your sleep they want to know and probably film you when sleeping without any justification and they will tell you to go to hell if you tell them to stop.
I'm sure they are up for that to prove their innocence!
Like person of interest?
Oh for fucks sake can we please stop putting AI everywhere
they put that shit into water bottles... water bottles! Like they have a water bottle that can be synched to your phone and it's % shown on screen and it changes color at set intervals to remind you to drink. Like for fucks sake dude!
If it results in innocent people in LA not getting fucking stabbed trying to ride the metro, it'll be good.
Otherwise this is just another fat government contract waiting for a tech bro to get their hands on.
The LA metro? Like, theres a passenger/commuter train in LA?
They will ensure a lot of smashed up AI cameras that's for sure
While wearing a mask that'll fool AI on top of a ski mask beneath it.
Don’t try to anthropomorphize Larry Ellison.
Billionaire wants a totalitarian state, who’s surprised?
Well how else is he going to fortify his ridiculous amount of wealth from the unwashed masses?
When you can get ticketed for speeding while your car is on the back of a tow truck:

Or a red light traffic ticket when your car was stolen:
https://abc7chicago.com/chicago-red-light-ticket-camera-illinois-car-stolen-theft/11677595/
And the police/courts won't help you because it's a problem from the private company running the cameras... I think we can see where some sort of AI backed camera network is headed.
A bandaid to fix this might be to setup an easy way for someone to dispute the charge. For every day that it takes the company to review the dispute, they would need to pay back the accused the same amount that they are charging them (with a minimum of paying them back twice the amount of the fine).
Even then, I'd rather cameras not be used in this way at all.
I’ll just base my conduct on Larry Ellison’s actions instead. As he is championing constant surveillance, he is surely the most virtuous of us all.
Fuck Larry Ellison.
Now he's going for super-villainy against people who've never even heard of Oracle.
If he really believed that he wouldn’t live in a gated castle.
Maybe I'm an outlier, but omnipresent AI cameras would ensure bad behavior in my case.
