Cool, let's put an ankle monitor on this dude and make his location 24/7 public.

I'm sure he's already got a phone on him 24/7. Just let that location data be released real-time.

Can we just go old fashioned and send him to a gulag or glue factory?

Well of course, as it stands right now it's not AI that stops me from slamming a baseball bat into his cunt-face, it's his security staff.

That and geography. I don't imagine you guys shop at the same grocery store.

That's right, I'm too busy hanging out at the beach, Uber'ing, and having corn flakes for dinner.

Billionaire Larry Ellison says a vast AI-fueled surveillance system can ensure 'citizens will be on their best behavior' Kenneth Niemeyer Sep 15, 2024, 10:06 AM MDT

Walking down a suburban neighborhood street already feels like a Ring doorbell panopticon.

But this is only the start of our surveillance dystopia, according to Larry Ellison, the billionaire cofounder of Oracle. He said AI will usher in a new era of surveillance that he gleefully said will ensure "citizens will be on their best behavior."

Ellison made the comments as he spoke to investors earlier this week during an Oracle financial analysts meeting, where he shared his thoughts on the future of AI-powered surveillance tools.

Ellison said AI would be used in the future to constantly watch and analyze vast surveillance systems, like security cameras, police body cameras, doorbell cameras, and vehicle dashboard cameras.

"We're going to have supervision," Ellison said. "Every police officer is going to be supervised at all times, and if there's a problem, AI will report that problem and report it to the appropriate person. Citizens will be on their best behavior because we are constantly recording and reporting everything that's going on."

Ellison also expects AI drones to replace police cars in high-speed chases. "You just have a drone follow the car," Ellison said. "It's very simple in the age of autonomous drones." He did not say if those drones would broadcast the chases on network news.

Citizens will be on their best behavior because we are constantly recording and reporting everything that's going on.

Larry has apparently never seen a single episode of any reality TV show. That's impressive.

Wasn't a similar pitch pushed for CCTV?
