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.
How very “libertarian” and “small government” of him.
Just as “libertarian” as Peter Thiel.
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?
Anarcho capitalism is a branch of libertarianism. They go that way because that’s the one that will give them power and money.
Our best agent in this fight against precrime…
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.
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
I wish we lived in a world where a leader saying something this stupid was enough to kick them out of power.
I feel like people are somehow stupider.
In Australia in the 80s there was very strong opposition to the introduction of tax file numbers, similar to a social security number I guess - merely a unique identifier for tax paying citizens. It was considered an over reach by the government, and an unnecessary way to track and monitor citizens.
Now 45 years later those same people who were resistant to this type of identifier, like my parents, are nodding along with the conservatives who are trying to implement AI surveillance everywhere saying how necessary it is to protect us all from evil crime doers.
Or having an initial test period, where, by default, they get adutomatically fired unless they serve well or work on their promises, like contractors, not like kings.
Locking into power once elected is a stupid design decision someone should’ve protested with a chainsaw in their hand, just like Milei, if he didn’t enjoy it himself.
I love to kill people in video games
oh great the fucking sybil system
A Psycho Pass enjoyer I see
Does this include any crimes committed by Milei, his wife and inner circle?
Or is this system only for plebs?
Yes.
It’s spreading. What the hell
What is spreading sir?
american stupidity.
Sounds about right
Why doesn’t he simply ask his dog clones that also have psychic powers?
