The US has the personnel to go through 5 years of every tourists personal social media history? I think fucking not.
The beauty of AI.
Target an individual's account for keywords or even just vibes. See what you can fish out. Impose highly public harm to a handful of soft targets. Your people will love that.
FOX News would gleefully run footage of some Blue Hair teenager crying in an airport because she got flagged at TSA for posting "Fuck Trump" on Facebook.
And that's what this is really for. Not some air tight seal on travel, but a few repeatable meme moments you can blast to your hog base
i read that as “blast your hog to.”
and i thought - those maga assholes will jerk to anything.
Off topic ... Is cranking your hog masturbating?
Oh Jesus, I did not interpret it like that I just thought of loud motorcycle noises...
It's both, that's the funny
oh no. I've used this joke in group chats
Eh, own it and move on. Can't change the past.
+1: yes
I meant, they're not mutually exclusive after all!
It will also have a quota to fill. flag 5000 turists a day or we'll remove 10% of your RAM
is it dedotated wam?
Even better
AI is great for identifying things if you don't care about false positives.
It won't most of the time and even if it does from time to time that's a feature not a bug.
And if it's wrong, who cares?
It's wrong by design.
Palintir is is estatic to access all this data.
Statistical word parrots will.
I wonder how long it'll be until a prompt injection "attack" is used in a major terrorist attack.
That's not how it works. AI has already categorized all accounts, they'll just lookup how people have been classified all these years.
Oh, they do: https://openai.com/index/our-agreement-with-the-department-of-war/.
Everyone is already in a database. NSA has scraped these sites already and tagged the data using Palantir’s tech. All they have to do is scan your passport and use your data and biometrics to pull a file up. The only thing they need is your permission to make it legal. If you want to enter you have to give permission.
Then why do they need you to submit anything?
So they can try and catch an innocent mistake and arrest you for lying to them.
So they can pretend that they don’t have this database already.
Delete the biometrics that provide access.
I don’t mean biometrics to unlock your phone. I just mean your face and fingerprints, which they take a photo of when you enter the US. They will use that to scan for matches in a database.
