Billionaire Larry Ellison says a vast AI-fueled surveillance system can ensure ‘citizens will be on their best behavior’

From the article: 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.

Let’s have a vast surveillance system on Wallstreet, ensuring that nobody can trade assets that they don’t own first.

Or a vast surveillance system to catch and punish wage theft.

It would be like some kind of a big brother watching your every move. Huh, that sounds familiar now that I said that.

The ownership class keeps telling us who they are. Believe them.

Sadly, if this happens, americans will do nothing to stop it.

I’m sure Larry and Elon won’t mind putting their lives on camera. They have a history of not being on their best behavior.

Screw these billionaires. Trying to control the masses. If I ever see anything like that I’m going with a bat and smashing all these “surveillance systems”. Oh, dam guess I gotta smash my phone.

The good people on the right who always decry Chinese big brother surveillance will surely be happy about this.

Rules for thee but not for me?

Larry’s wet dream Behaviour Police: ” Hi Larry, we’re here to stream your entire life online so people can trust you and everything you do including your business deals so they meet community expectations. ” … Larry: “Hey, I didn’t mean for me, I’m rich!”

Panopticon ahoy.

Stalin’s nvkd [torture police] manual-analogue version, showed what a neurotic , paranoid, sadistic tyranny it would be. Including for the NKVD enforcers, and also for the Larry Ellison class. Noone escaped its reach 

We are living in a time where a revolution is desperately needed, if you are outside the cool club, i.e. not a millionaire.

What we get is an opposite-class where people who are on minimum wage are wagering their lives in the name of oligarchy. Welcome to the Wild West.

“Luigi Detection Systems”. We know exactly why he’s bringing this up. The oligarchs wants security against revolution.

The oligarchs aren’t even pretending to hide it anymore.

Imagine a future in an authoritarian state where you don’t have to worry about your friends, neighbor or even family ratting you out. No, it’s your watch and phone that do all that work. 

That future is five minutes from now. 

AI could be used to revolutionize medical research and development, and instead… this. And stealing art.

Luigi shot a CEO in the most surveilled city in the world.

And they wonder why people don’t want to produce children for this world. These people can fk off. Best behavior for who? So we don’t uprise against them. They would t fear it if they would leave us the fk alone!
