Back in the late 80s, I was actually assigned to what they then called the AI department. Power itself is a corrupting influence. It's just built into the human condition.

Now you add AI, and now this new frontier of like a gentic side of AI, we basically offload decision-making to AI. What we're giving up is our sovereignty, our individuality, but also moral, ethical agency. Because in essence, AI is this amoral, aethical. How do you build those rules in?

So you cannot regulate that. On the other side, who doesn't want to feel safe in their community? So let's just surveil everybody, just in case. I've thought about an item. It does come up in the ads. How does that work? Because I never spoke about it. The classical way is that, you know, AI builds a profile for you, and it uses this profile to make predictions, right? But the technology is evolving. It picks up, for example, sounds, picks up where you are. Sometimes people wear headphones, you know, they're talking to other people. It collects data from geolocation data. So, for example, it knows if you are next to somebody else who's viewing at that time something. It assumes that you probably, you know, this person is showing you something on their mobile, and therefore it shows you something similar. So there's a lot of ways of actually contextualizing information right now, not just about you, but where you are and whom you're with and what you do. The current leading edge in all this is the sort of the shadow forensic mapping at the device and app level, meaning it doesn't actually have to know you. Of course, if you're logged in to certain apps with your account, then it knows you, at least with respect to that account and that profile. But behind all that is you can build an extraordinary dossier of just forensics, the big base of the digital footprint of how you use your devices and the apps, including time, duration, location information. And over time, you build quite a profile. It doesn't matter if they don't actually assign your name, but it is a unique footprint or a trace in terms of a, it almost becomes more of a permanent fingerprint, which becomes more and more refined as the days and the months and the years go by. Extraordinary power simply to know what you're doing, even if they don't actually have the direct persona level information. But I could even, I could easily argue it only takes about seven pieces of what we, this sort of metadata of who you are to actually identify who you are anyways. Now you add this interesting for a fingerprint footprint at a forensic level. Wow. It's just an enormous amount of data. And so if you, now you now take that to AI, because you can't do this manually per se. You just can't. So you take it to AI, you quickly go through all this and continue to add to it and analyze and analyze, start looking at patterns. Who do you talk to?
Who do you communicate with? Who are you hanging out with? And if they decide, I say they, powers that be, I don't care who it is. I don't care what form of governance it is. I don't care whether it's dictatorship or even what I now increasingly refer to as inverted democracy or performative democracy even in America. It's so tempting to now use that to go after people, even if you don't directly. It's not like the old days, even in America, where an officer basically of the crown could show up the piece of paper. This is sort of the general warrant, piece of paper, I can take you, I can take your personal effects or property away from you. They don't have to do that. I know that from my own experience when they monitor me. I mean, we're talking forensically, even with the technology of the day, which is that 2006 to 2010 timeframe, enormous amount of data, especially when they target you directly, not passive and you're in some database, but they actually have decided you are an enemy or a threat to power. We need to keep track of you actively, not just passively, both physically as well as electronically. We need to keep track of you actively. We need to keep track of you actively. We need to keep track of you actively. We need to keep track of you actively. We need to keep track of you actively. We need to keep track of you actively. We need to keep track of you actively. We need to keep track of you actively. We need to keep track of you actively. We need to keep track of you actively. We need to keep track of you actively. We need to keep track of you actively. We need to keep track of you actively. We need to keep track of you actively. We need to keep track of you actively. We need to keep track of you actively. We need to keep track of you actively.
