US codified & legalized citizen surveillance by fear driven Patriot Act. But humans are lazy and or bored and likely miss potential terrorist attack or internal citizen revolt and/or unrest.
AI will be an automated totalitarian system that monitors everyone, predicts behavior, and enforces social control with algorithmic precision. It will be relentless and ruthless in pursuit of its assigned objective. Privacy & civil liberties be d@mned!
AI will have access to all city cameras & facial recognition software. Plus cameras will eventually be installed in every village.
We are on the cusp of a future dystopia of George Orwell’s “1984”. A world Orwell wrote about, dominated by a repressive surveillance and security state that used crude and violent forms of control. Offending citizens can be removed [disappeared] to secret rendition sites.
That is a worst case scenario. It could also work out that AI improves productivity and lives. The real result is likely to be between the extremes.
Yes, people are aware of possible wrong paths. Regulations are under discussion. People are keeping an eye on AI. No doubt those discussions will continue.
The irony, AI is flighty. I ask for the video game code. I get something hard to use. I pare does what I want. I get something that needs more explaining; parts of it won’t work. I get something very complicated done, finally, as a novice otherwise.
AI can put the suggestions up day after day. But using them? AI is flighty. When I stop days later, asking for code, everything disappears.
You think just because the databases are massive means they are used to advantage? How?
Looking at that, it takes people to organize AI far more than the salespeople say it does.
Google search algorithm is a good example of computers learning as they go. You put in a search term and Google gives you its best guess of what you want. They watch what you click from the list and move those higher on the list.
AI can learn this way too. You teach it the right or best answer as you go. And presumably it can extrapolate that to other similar situations.
