    From the article:

    “Because if the system fails, the Silicon Valley elite that created it will secure their place in a new technical regime. This regime concentrates power with those who understand and control this system’s maintenance, upkeep, and upgrades. Any failure would also accelerate efforts to shift work to private contractors.”

    “By shifting government decisions to AI systems they must know are unsuitable, these tech elites avoid a political debate they would probably lose. Instead, they create a nationwide IT crisis that they alone can fix.”

    “Do not fall for the trap. Democratic participation and representative politics in government are not “waste.” Nor should arguments focus on the technical limits of particular systems, as the tech elites are constantly revising expectations upward through endless promises of exponential improvements. The argument must be that no computerized system should replace the voice of voters. Do not ask if the machine can be trusted. Ask who controls them.”

    Tech elites will argue that their AI government administrative systems are more efficient and transparent, however, we all know that many tech products are prone to bugs and failures. We also know tech elites are often profit driven. However, government services are motivated by need not profit. This could be also disastrous for systems that cannot be allowed to fail, for instance, nuclear launch sequences are designed in a way to make errors nearly impossible – what happens if they try to give military administration to AI?

    From a reddit comment:

    “These “security guards” aren’t just rent-a-cops, they work for a private paramilitary firm called Triple Canopy which merged with Academi (formerly Blackwater, remember Erik Prince?) to form Constellis Holdings. You can see others wearing Triple Canopy/Constellis insignias like the guy in this pic. https://imgur.com/S9yRQVj Looks like they are switching to using more guys in plain clothes to be less obvious.

    Would probably be much better than plundering loons who are stealing everything they can from the taxpayers

  4. I quite disagree: I don’t think Musk has a coherent strategy: he just wants to gut government services and massively deregulate so that the rich can get richer.

  5. I mean at this point, yeah maybe.

    These ego-masturbating fuckwits think our democracy is just another “industry to be disrupted” by startup venture capitalist tech bros. Tech bros who are too stupid to realize their financial success happened literally BY DESIGN thanks to the democratic governance structure in place.

  6. The issue with this idea is that regardless of how you program AI, it is fundamentally a logical system. A logical system will always inevitably seek out the most logical pathway forward, which means that these system will always trends towards truth and fact. This will most assuredly backfire for them – because the further you go into logic, the more apparent it becomes that ethics and emotional intelligence is an essential necessity for establishing a stabilized environment for longevity of a system – the opposite of what these ‘broligarchz’ believe and pursue.

  7. Well…… looking at the current state of things, I say let AI get it’s chance, it’s almost impossible to do worse.

  8. The data trail you leave will dictate everything about your existence.

    It will be means tested in real time (accurately or not) by people who want to control you in a Black Mirror dystopia.

    If you don’t make ‘the grade’ they set, in any form, you’ll be left to the wolves and those on the inside will applaud.
