    Your examples are about AIs costing police departments money, which is what I’m saying. I’m saying it won’t be a viable use long term, BECAUSE of the blow back in time, lawsuits, and money.

    As I said earlier; “Again, mis-matches and police time checking the AI are going to cost too much, and those programs would cost big money in lawsuits and time. It’d be the first program cut by most departments.”

    More likely uses are jobs that burn through a lot of copy writers: spam/marketing, realestate ads, search engines and researching, little buddies and toys, publishing (sadly), video games, weather bureaus, text transcription and translation, scams and telemarketing. Things there’s lots of data on, and close to zero risk with.

      What about the billions ICE is spending on stockpiling weapons and vehicles, the increased military budget, rhe continued erosion of our rights, and the almost certainly rigged upcoming midterms suggests lawsuits and courts are going to be any impediment to the fascists eventually?

      And no, I’m not saying we just roll over and give up. But I am being realistic with the way that most authoritarian regimes go, and how they consolidate all power. Trump campaigned on giving politice as much immunity as he could, and that includes the way that courts punish police oversight and brutality. He’s actually delivered quite well on the things that benefit him and his cronies. And since police serve as the Pinkerton class of capital, I think once he gets enough power, he will fulfill that promise.

      Give DHS as much immunity as they need, CiA and FBI clearance and permissions up the wazoo, and anything else they need to stay in power.

        If they don’t care about lawsuits, then why would they need an AI to tell them who to arrest? They’ll just arrest whoever they want.
