I hate that they use “AI” as a scaremongering tool in the title here, as it’s not just AI. The system they are building includes pervasive camera surveillance, tracking via ad networks, and plenty of non “AI” algorithms. Regardless, the views expressed are troubling:
> “When I was in justice, my ultimate vision for that part of the criminal justice system was to achieve, by means of AI and technology, what Jeremy Bentham tried to do with his Panopticon. That is that the eyes of the state can be on you at all times.
A normal person doesn’t make that kind of statement.

Oh man, we’re fucked though. No one is going to stop these people.
Even in the US I can feel the scale tilting as normies start to rationalize a mass surveillance on unprecedented scales.
