Strange how self-declared """libertarians""" like Milei always turn out to loooove mass surveillance once they are in power. /s

It's good that AI is known to be always right and it never just makes shit up - that would put innocent people in danger, so it's awesome it never happens!
My AI says that you're a future evildoer. Please report to the nearest detention centre.
And with predicting future crimes it means detecting anyone who is more on the left than conservatives
If it turns out anything like Reddit's attempt, the false-positive rate is going to be astronomical.
Seems that someone needs to re-watch Minority Report.
They'd probably think they won't make the same mistakes, or that it's a reasonable trade off.
Why would anything in Minority Report bother them? If anything all the potential exploits are a feature, not a bug.
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
To be honest I'm pretty certain that none of them have actually read the 1984 they strike me is being particularly book orientated.
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.
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?
Does this include any crimes committed by Milei, his wife and inner circle?
Or is this system only for plebs?
I’ve seen this movie.
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.
oh great the fucking sybil system
It's spreading. What the hell
Hey this doesn't remind me of any movie possibly entitled minority report starring fuck face from missions impossible 54....oh it hasn't filmed yet, butt fuck face will according to AI...oh yeah Tom Crux. Sorry to call you fuck face Tom, I have turret's. Fuck.

Everyone has seen this movie
Everyone agrees it's a bad idea!
Let's try it...
I love to kill people in video games
- Politician: We're going to use AI to predict crimes.
- AI: That politician is currently committing a crime! Arrest him immediately!
- Politician: We are discontinuing the use of AI to predict crimes. The technology is clearly not ready yet...
The downward spiral is way steeper than expected. At this rate, we aren't going to last another decade.
Only 23 years after Minority Report. But also, holy shit Minority Report was 23 years ago.
Someone should post this to ancap and libertarian subreddits
How effective could it be about corporate and government crimes discussed behind closed doors?
You are guilty of thinking about having Merlot with that steak instead of a local Malbec.
That's silly. If he wants to predict the future he can just ask his psychic dead dog, like he usually does
That is just dumb.
The only "patterns" they will discover are biased ones.
Dude is clearly speedrunning something
Does that mean that if we flood #ArgentineTwitter with bots tweeting very long AI-generated fake news stories saying that the politicians are violent criminals, they'll get arrested?
It looks like the state surveillance fo their citizens everywhere, including social network is from a very rare kind of questions where the position of neo-libertarians meets the position of neo-liberals.
Well it was always going to get to this but I'm pretty disappointed that it isn't aided by a cybernetically enhanced dolphin.
Pretty sure this is going to happen in the entire world. Internet freedom will not survive the decade.
I lived without it before, I'll fuckin do it again.
Another purpose will be to discover “suspicious financial transactions or anomalous behavior that could indicate illegal activities.
That's rich coming from Milei, who is currently being investigated for a blatant crypto scam as well as an old-school corporate bribery scandal.
This is already happening in the world (especially Germany). Thats the exact business proposal for Palantir. NRW, Bavaria , and Baden Würtemberg all already signed contracts with them.
When it doesn't work, will they cover it up by going full Minority Report?
Here we fucking go. It was NEVER about protecting people, but manipulating them. Somebody needs to do something against this.
I wonder, if the precrime division gets those swipe screens and a ball dispenser as an alert if it detects something 😆
can't wait until all crimes being committed in argentina are found to have been committed by people in queer spaces on the internet /s
Thought police coming to a country near you. New Silicon Valley technology doing its job of facilitating fascism
