Why not pigeons with microphones and cameras like some other countries ?
Every country is moving towards this and there is no fucking stopping it, it seems.
I’ve seen this movie.
Psycho pass the anime also had the same idea.
‘La libertad avanza’ my ass.
Ok, I’ve had it.
Every county seems to be actively trying to create their own distopia this year
From now on, no sci-fi until you can pass a reading comprehension test.
I think Argentina was already there, but I get your point.
The problem is politicians tend to live in bubbles where they are protected from the consequences of their own actions and often are old and not particularly tech-savvy. So they get pulled in by things like AI and blockchain because they sound like having your cake and eating it.
The AI techbros go to them and promise them the world, they make it sound so great that the philosophers stone would be less attractive. The eagerly lap all this nonsense up and then we get announcements about pre-crime or something.
Oh, I was talking about the tech-bros. They’re the ones who shouldn’t have access to sci-fi, or at least not the cautionary tales
1984 was never meant to be a guide damn it!
To be honest I’m pretty certain that none of them have actually read the 1984 they dont strike me as being particularly book orientated.
if they read more than the ticker on faux news, maybe they’d have more empathy.
Hey, remember when people were saying Milei was a “Libertarian” and saying he will show the world what a “Libertarian” Country could look like? Remember that? Remember him dressing up as Captain Anap?
Almost immediately, dare I say the moment he got into power, he fucking went full fascist complete with the suppression of protests and propaganda announcements at railway stations. This is why I hate Right wing “Libertarians” (or as I like to call them, “Fauxbertarians”). They basically want a Corporatocracy. They’ll be like “I want the state out of our lives” one moment, then once with a modicum of power, they use it to increase the power of corporations over our lives and crush any dissent with a vigour the likes of which you only see in North Korea. They want the “government” out the lives of corporations and into the lives of everyday people. It always turns into a corporatocracy with these Children of bitches.
Among his plans to downsize the State, President Milei has been saying that he intends to replace government workers and organizations with AI systems. The first role that he will give to this technology, however, will be an expansion of state agencies: on Monday his government created the Unit of Artificial Intelligence Applied to Security.
LOL how the fuck is mass surveilence of people downsizing the state?

Seems that someone needs to re-watch Minority Report.
Just don’t let them read ‘don’t build the torment nexus’
They’d probably think they won’t make the same mistakes, or that it’s a reasonable trade off.
But also, this will be based on machine learning “AI” … So basically just police profiling but without the human element …
Why would anything in Minority Report bother them? If anything all the potential exploits are a feature, not a bug.
Yeah, and our timeline has a far less useful version of Tom Cruise
How very “libertarian” and “small government” of him.
Just as “libertarian” as Peter Thiel.
This continual AI surveillance state and AI moderation crap just keeps reminding me more and more of this particular passage from A Scanner Darkly.
What does a scanner see? he asked himself. I mean, really see? Into the head? Down into the heart? Does a passive infrared scanner like they used to use or a cube-type holo-scanner like they use these days, the latest thing, see into me - into us - clearly or darkly? I hope it does, he thought, see clearly, because I can’t any longer these days see into myself. I see only murk. Murk outside; murk inside. I hope, for everyone’s sake, the scanners do better. Because, he thought, if the scanner sees only darkly, the way I myself do, then we are cursed, cursed again and like we have been continually, and we’ll wind up dead this way, knowing very little and getting that little fragment wrong too.
Our best agent in this fight against precrime…
It’s spreading. What the hell
What is spreading sir?
american stupidity.
Sounds about right
oh great the fucking sybil system
I love to kill people in video games
I really like what Luigi did by saving his brother from the boos
Why doesn’t he simply ask his dog clones that also have psychic powers?
