His investment in Objection.ai points to a new model: private investigations, AI verdicts, and accountability mechanisms that operate outside democratic institutions.

Financial obesity is an existential threat to any society that tolerates it, and needs to cease being celebrated, rewarded, and positioned as an aspirational goal.
Corporations are the only ‘persons’ which should be subjected to capital punishment, but billionaires should be euthanised through taxation.

I’m fine with just euthanizing them the old fashioned way; cancerous growth can only be allowed for so long before the rest of the body fails.
History has shown time and again that if you give the lower classes nothing to live for or buy into a society then violent revolution usually follows.

Just what we need, a justice system based on pre-existing biases

Putting aside the problems in the current system, let’s not call Thiel’s system a justice system until we can see some results and verify they are just, 'k?
It’ll NEVER be a “”“justice”“” system; it’ll just be a way for the Ultra-Wealthy to legitimize their oppression and handwave the consequences as a “decision by AI”. Mysteriously, oh-so-mysteriously, the verdicts will ALWAYS align with Thiel’s interests.

I feel like this is the origin story to a script of a film Chris Pratt would definitely star in… …Oh wait…

It’s called Mercy. It’s actually pretty good, yeah, but it’s also pro-AI, pro-surveillance state propaganda. Solid B+, though.

Ooooh… It was certainly sounding like the opposite of that haha! Appreciate the response, thank you!!

All you gotta do is throw in some heroic 3 Percenters to make it the perfect Pratt film.

Yeah I dunno if it was made as a joke but the timout at the end before releasing it was so classic and expected it made me chuckle. But clearly it represent well the fear of the worst uses ofs AI.

I was just amazed that Amazon out of all companies would put out a film admitting that AI justice would be flawed.

Does it really matter if checks and balances have been wiped out? Seems like just a label.
Because it operates within the law? It’s a binding arbitration company.

The state ceding the monopoly of violence to a surveillance corporation would be considered too on the face to be the plot of a cyberpunk dystopia and yet here we are living in the worlds dumbest dystopia.
- bss03@infosec.pubEnglish23 hours
That’s basically the start of the Shadowrun dystopia. There were a lot of other things that “went wrong”, but when the government removed the liability from private security that has been protecting a hazardous materials transport from workers attacking it in the belief that it contained foodstuffs, it legitimized the “megacorp”: a corporation sufficiently powerful to impose their own legal system on their private real estate.
EDIT: In the previous histories the “Seretech Decision” was on 1999-10-26. Sources: 1 2 3 Looks like “6th edition” retconned the fictional history to start 2001-09-11 (Never Forget), so it’s unclear what and when the equivalent event is. Source: 4
I suggest building a parallel justice system for Peter Thiel. It will be powered by guillotines.

wouldve been if gawker wasnt sued to the ground, apparently they were reporting on things like these decades ago, he was just using the gay excuse to obfuscate his role and bankrolling hot-dog skin hogans lawsuit.

lol, he publicly identifies as a Sauron cosplayer

I imagine he’s going to try and deploy this in that totally unregulated Freedom City that he and Trump are trying to launch on some federal property in CA.

Nah, he is going to deploy it as the de-facto arbitrator for private industry. You wave your write to sue virtually every time you sign a TOS. This will replace arbitration because that is already a parallel legal system exclusively for corporations.
