  • I can’t vouch for the truth of this as I just saw online posts about it too.

    But I saw in Iraq, there’s a book market that just leaves most of their books outside because “The Reader doesn’t steal, and the thief doesn’t read”

  • I think this also disappointingly in the US depends where you live, if you live in a city with easily accessible public transportation I think you’d be fine, but if it’s a more rural area I still do think it’d be difficult.

    I live in a city now and sold my car 5 years ago and have been fine with taking the subway and I also work fully remote.

  • In a way they do testing on men in sports all the time. They test for testosterone levels for one to see if the athlete is not utilizing Performance Enhancing Drugs (PEDs).

    But I also haven’t read the article on the methodology they will be going to be utilizing.

  • I don’t follow ai development too much, so when I first saw these images didn’t know they were AI.

    But to me something about these felt soulless, compared to snaps of ghibli movies.

    Now knowing it’s AI explained it some more.

  • Oh I agree with you, since it was my dissertation I had to argue for both sides. The view of “potential danger” is not worth the weight of violating a natural human right.

    I touched upon similar a social credit scoring system, where in ideology with big brother crime rates will go down, however the trade off is people will have less faith in others. As people will no longer be able to determine altruism, are you helping me because you’re a good person, or just to boost your credit score.

  • When I was in college (jeez that’s like 7 years ago) I did my dissertation on the future of privacy and I spent 7-8 pages on DNA tracking like 23andMe.

    As a business and invasion of personal identity is immoral.

    However the major point of ethicality is for police work, as I believe it was ancestry that helped catch the golden state killer. I believe it was ancestry relative of the serial killer did the test and there was a used cigarette at the site of a murder and tracked back to him.

    It’s a whole philosophical debacle. Is it right to keep the dna of millions stored to prevent or capture a handful of potentially dangerous individuals.

  • On the slim bright side maybe just maybe this might make the US think of renewable energy, it’s why China invests so much into it to prevent relying on countries for oil.

    Ehh who am I kidding, that’s not going to happen at all.
