    Yup. It’s a scary time. You take some LinkedIn data, some Walmart shopping habits, a Spotify user catalog, a Google timeline, combined with Flock footage - mix it all together with “AI” - and suddenly you’ve got an extremely detailed profile of any individual you want. And we’re only in the early stages. That is, spying, prediction, eavesdropping… The only logical conclusion to the surveillance apparatus is an evolution towards an apparatus for control. And it will be the most sinister, subtle, and undetectable type of coercion imaginable.

    I just want to grill for gods sake.

      mix it all together with “AI”

      And this is the biggest problem of all. Nobody can explain why the AI picked a specific record to escalate its “suspicion”. Nobody is accountable when it picks the wrong person, or when it creates suspicion without any actual wrongdoing taking place.

        Knowing you can be disappeared any time, even if you do nothing wrong, will certainly keep you down, and subservient.

        I bet that’s what Epsteins experiments were…torturing and breaking children in various ways to see at what point they would co-operate with anything, including their own deaths.

        All the better when they start going after whoever they want because “AI” said so. The reality is this is just the excuse they were looking for.

        Lying AI decided to pull you over today sir, would you mind telling me why?
