The loop is intentional though. You need political will to pass laws like these so you have to create crises for it. But as you say its a self sustaining cycle

The loop is intentional though. You need political will to pass laws like these so you have to create crises for it. But as you say its a self sustaining cycle and the end result will be fully automated repression. The old arguments of "Oh well the policemen have families too" will go away once drones can enforce your dictatorship
- peoplefromibiza 2y ago> The loop is intentional though Of course, but it's also a consequence of being rich countries. Nobody wants to actually be a cop anymore, after studying for years to get a degree and finally get a cop's salary, and I understand them. The good news is that unless you are Japanese living in a dystopian anime, automated (kawaiiii) drone repression will never work in practice. https://theglorioblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/psychopass2police.jpg https://theglorioblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/psychop...

- coretx 2y agoOver here in NLD they dont make them study. They mostly hire morons and give them a course so stupid a above average intelligent person could pass the exam within a month. And it shows on the streets. ( They even taser unarmed elderly on a mobility device and no one bats an eye ) Nobody wants to work for a corrupt and imbecile organisation.
- peoplefromibiza 2y ago> They mostly hire morons yeah, same here, that's part of the problem though, which reinforces the idea that police can be replaced by autonomous robotic agents. Which is not true. Some examples from my country, some are laughable, some are horrifying https://www.gardapost.it/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/robot-yape-1.jpg https://www.gardapost.it/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/robot-ya... https://www.gedistatic.it/content/gnn/img/ilsecoloxix/2023/12/19/154926895-687f179b-d549-42c5-a1c3-7864e065f0cc.jpg?webp https://www.gedistatic.it/content/gnn/img/ilsecoloxix/2023/1...
- questinthrow 2y agoOh I wasnt envisioning this when I talked about the situation above. I guess my vision is 20 years from now where you will have LLMs scanning everything and predicting your danger level, if it arises over a certain threshold they just send killbots to deal with you if you dont comply by reporting to your local private prison
