What about AI that observes whether you yawn too much at work, or if your eyes appear tired too often? Would you be okay with that? Because that tech already exists, and is in use.As I see it there's nothing wrong with workplace surveillance. From my experience there are a lot of people who could use being surveilled. It's like having surveillance cameras in stores watching for looters. Why should I care? Seems like a pretty good idea to me. Now if you want to watch me in my home then that's a different story. But in the public domain I say 'Why should I care?'
I like the cameras they work great. I have a 70” tv in my living room and above that I have a 42” mounted to the wall that we use to show family photos slideshow on. I installed an Amazon Fire Stick on the 42” tv and it comes with a photos app that you can upload unlimited photos on it and have it play a slideshow 24/7. Then I connected my Eufy door lock to the Alexa app which allows me to have the camera interrupt the photo slide show when someone comes to the door so I can see who’s at the door. I have a 32” fire tv upstairs in my bedroom that does the same and at night when I activate night mode when we go to sleep if it detects a person it turns on the tv in my bedroom and shows the camera that detected the person. It’s pretty nice to be woken up by the alarm and not have to fumble around with my phone trying to see that tiny screen waking up from a dead sleep when your eyes aren’t quite working yet. It gives me time to get to the gun safe if I need to.Though I have never heard of that tech. It seems like solid evidence, plus there is no down side. If it was an innocent I doubt you would make a mistake. Ai could detect pre-crime based on probabilities but the accuracy would not be 100%. Some might find that acceptable. I suppose it might be if one just had to see a counselor, but if they were requiring onerous maeasures just because you showed up on AI's radar, then that would not be a society I would want to live in.

There's nothing wrong with that. Or with cameras in general, or with protecting your home... In this thread, I'm referring to the use of AI, and where we do, or don't want it to go in the future, as far as 'being controlled'.I like the cameras they work great.

Because one thing leads to another, and if you don't care now, then when will you care?Why would I care?

Yeah well that freedom goes both ways. If I hire an employee I should have the right to observe that employee to make sure that he or she is doing what I’m paying him or her to do and doing it according to company policies that I’ve put in place.There's nothing wrong with that.

Liberty is the state of being free from oppressive restrictions and having the ability to act and speak freely. It means having the freedom to make personal choices about one's life, behavior, and beliefs, as long as they are lawful and not harmful to others.
Agreed, however with the upcoming technology, it's right and just that we distinguish the boundaries alongside the technological advancements, so as to maintain a healthy society. If you look back into history, at the beginning of the industrial revolution, we see that initially, boundaries were not made, and we see how rivers and streams were flooded with toxic chemicals. We saw lax safety standards, and a lot of other factors that were overlooked.Yeah well that freedom goes both ways.

The difference between me, and a lot of other people, is that I tend to be a *big picture* type thinker. I'm not looking at myself, or you personally, but at our entire society.. I feel like we need to know what is and isn't okay. Where do we draw the line in the sand? This is the paradigm I'm trying to portray with this thread, while looking at what's to come.Obviously one thing leads to another, but that still doesn't answer my question... why should I care?

...We need to know where we stand before someone else makes that decision for us, at which point, it will be too late to go back.
