For those who don’t know, Larry Ellison runs the tech company Oracle, and is consistently in the list of top-five wealthiest people in the world.
if god did not exist, it would be necessary to invent him.
Ellison’s prediction of AI-driven surveillance will rely on the development of powerful hardware, but shortages of AI-acceleration components like GPUs could slow them down.
I’m doing my part to fight the panopticon by building a decadent gamer rig
apparently god is near memphis and actively polluting yet another black community.
i think this is in the book of mornon iirc
Christ that’d be such a fucking waste of resources. We’d be using enough power to like air condition the global south, run massive desalination plants, or any number of things necessary for survival, and we’d dedicate for facial recognition.
let’s start by putting one inside every room of every one of Larry’s houses
y’all see that all the workers at videogame publisher Annapurna Interactive quit? that’s his daughter’s company.
It’s really our fault, for envisioning the torment nexus in the first place
“…for poor people only”, Ellison finishes. Let’s put cameras on the bourgeois class and see what behaviour results.
“Every police officer is going to be supervised at all times, and if there’s a problem, AI will report the problem and report it to the appropriate person.”
“As the police chief for the city that these videos are sent to, I have reviewed the footage and determined the officers involved were framed using deep fake technology. The hackers responsible will soon be taken into custody.”
Common household cleaners can be deadly if combined and should be kept away from the vents of billionaire’s bunkers
“This is NOTHING like 1984! This is being done by a corporation so everything is fine!”
The paragraph is titled “Sounds Familiar” for crying out loud
Of course, the obligatory China mention. “Digital totalitarianism”.
to be fair, this is not the first time a guy named Ellison had a nightmarish prediction about what AI would do in the future
But people record themselves doing crimes on occasion?
The panopticon only works if there is a carrot as well as a stick. And it must be perceived as perfect.
He’s an idiot who is so detached from humanity, it’s a shock he’s still alive.
this is worse than the panopticon because there’d be a machine mind fixed on every cell instead of just the possiblity of being observed.
bad optics
ZOMG this is just liek the tankietarian Chai Nah!
my ability to order water pistols on Alibaba, however, will ensure otherwise 🔫
