Not long ago, a woman was arrested because recognition software popped her as having a warrant... Problem is, the warrant was for someone else, her picture somehow got associated with the warrant. She had never been in any kind of trouble before. Despite the fact that all of the information on the warrant was different than her info. Like the fact that she was twice the age of the person named on the warrant, the name and other info was different... The police were convinced that she was the right person based only on the picture. She was stuck in jail for a couple days before someone finally got around to figuring out the mistake.

It's all incredible step towards an always monitored society, almost like a weird panopticon.

Honestly I understand Linus so much here. I love all the cool things that tech can do while also being terrified of what tech can do. The biggest one for me is neuralink. The fact that we may be able to get people to mentally control prosthetics, repair blindness, communicate “telepathically” across the party with someone, or just controlling a PC like the guy already can is freaking dope. Heck, part of me would love to get home from work and sit on the couch and plug in and play COD Black Ops 11 where it feels 100% real like I’m actually there Inception style. But also it scares the shit out of me where that tech can and absolutely will go…. You think 23 and me is bad? What kind of info will a hacker be able to sell when they hack your brain PC and sell your thoughts to advertisers and insurance companies. “Sorry we can’t sell you life insurance, you have been having suicidal thoughts”
@@secretagentemu and governments, even in developed countries, have proven they don’t care about tracking you and coming after you for your opinions, whether it’s the thousands arrested in the UK over sharing memes deemed offensive, or Canada freezing private bank accounts of the truckers in the “freedom convoy,” which regardless of your opinion on what they were protesting, that’s pretty f-ed up that the government responded to free speech that way. Get a brain computer and someone is going to be arrested for mentally misgendering or deadnaming someone or having a “racist” thought after they get cut off on the freeway. And anyone who says “oh no, I know it’s bad but they will draw the line there I’m sure!!!” Is a moron. Almost every time that argument is made, writhing 5-10 years it’s normalized.
Laws: It's worse; everyone in the building broke dozens of laws that day. Insurance: I was on the inside of this. What'll happen is that the baseline, "know nothing about you" rate will go way up, and then "voluntarily" doing the invasive things is the only way to get back down to a reasonable rate.
Even people like me who don't use social media at all. I have never uploaded a picture of irl to any media platform. But, sadly my family has. Dozens of times. Even though I've never put my face and personal information out there. That program could easily find my address, birthday, family, pets, events, etc.
Anytime I hear about more shenanigans like this running down this path, I just think back to the Marvel movie plot where they intend to preemptively execute members of society to enable a utopian society. I feel like we'd be silly to think no one way up the food chain is looking to exploit certain opportunities.
As someone with prosopagnosia, i still want some sort of personal AR name badges floating above people's faces. I don't need strangers' names or any extra information. I just wish i could go into a room and not worry that i can't recognize anyone. It's debilitating at times.
@@CallMeRabbitzUSVI For sure. I'd be happy with some sort of personal/local database that I have to build up myself, but no one's going to invest time into creating something like that, unfortunately.

I read a news article once about a city installing red light cameras to prevent accidents and people stopped running red lights. But it was costing the police department revenue. So they removed these red light cameras because it was affecting their budget even though it made everyone safer.
Red light cameras can also *increase* the amount of crashes in an intersection. It depends on the intersection, and it also depends on the study. IIHS might choose an intersection where, after installing red light cameras, they saw a drop in crashes, while Texas A&M chooses a different intersection with an *increase* in crashes after a red light camera. Ultimately, the government wants their money, and red light cameras get them that money. They will choose the study that supports whichever plan gives them the most money.
@@austinbaccus you literally recognized one outcome is equally likely to the other, and never once explained how it actually resulted in more crashes So You're entirely wrong

giving that technology to cops is a terrible idea. you don't have to identify yourself to a cop without a reason, "but let's give them a facial recognition glasses so they can see who you are and what you've done in your life" come on guys.
The problem is that if a company makes a billion dollars because of a skeevy or illegal product/service/market manipulation and then they get fined for 100 million dollars then they're likely still making a hefty profit so they're not really incentivized to stop when capitalism keeps rewarding them regardless ...

Re: Ending segment, or what if you used a product that advertised itself on only storing the data locally but it was uploading it to the cloud all along.
This would be cool if it was a closed system. Like you could add your own notes and link them to a face. Being able to search the internet for info on the faces of strangers is pretty messed up.
I genuinely think this tech that gives you just a name and no other info would be more helpful then harmful. But having entire profiles on people is unhinged
This has already happened in the secret services in the UK. So, like, if you’ve ever interacted with a person that they believe were connected to the IRA, they already create such databases about you and around 6 degrees of separation with regards to the people you also interact with (allegedly from what I may or may not have been told by someone who may or may not have known). It used to be paper based, until that is in around the 1990s they managed to computerise the system. It’s only gotten ‘better’ from that point onwards.
@@cym3 yes knowing who is there is... Correct. However, knowing (or suspecting) who is an active member of the IRA and then who they talk to as well as the details for, say, the 6 people that they then also talk to such that you could pull out that information in an instant... Information that goes far deeper than that what is contained within the census just because you were on the phone with (maybe unknowingly) a person of interest is just a wee bit further than what I think you thought I believed I meant, wouldn't you agree?
Just think about it. You look at someone and it tells you their name and starts showing you some of the their recent posts on social media. How many more fights do you think would break out between strangers by having this information thrown in their faces all the time?
The only way I can possibly fathom this being somewhat desirable is if there was some technological magic that would grant every single person a direct kill switch on their own personal data that is stored elsewhere. So like if you don't want a particular entity to have access to your data, you press a button and it's immediately deleted. Alternatively they could force a monetary value to all datapoints related to an individual and require that all exchanges of personal data be compensated monetarily, similar to how royalties work. And by "force" I mean to say that the monetary transaction would be non-negotiable. It would not be allowed to be circumvented or waived away. If someone takes/uses your data, they would owe you money and you would not have the authority to give your data away without receiving proper financial compensation.
A huge problem with this tech is that if someone else has internet cameras in their glasses, but they don't tell you. They might have consented to sell their soul to Zak, but if you have no idea and invite them into your house, you have also unknowingly invited the demon possessing them into your home. Everything about you, your house, your family, your pets, your data is now your friend's data, which is now Zak's data, which is now everyone with money's data. They might have consented to share their data, but you didn't. I feel the same way about smart tv's in other people's homes. They might have consented to have that camera there and share everything it sees and hears, but if they don't inform you about it and have you consent, then that's a massive loop hole to spy on other people in what seems to be a private space.
I don't mind it being used for scanning for warrants, when it comes to my privacy to other people in public that's different. I don't need Jim knowing I frequent my local card shop.
Most warrants are for minor crimes that do not deserve arrest. Giving cops the ability to see who has a warrant at any moment would do more harm than good.

I have very much the same feeling as Linus when he says "I read about this thing that I asked for". I've found that my concerns about this invasive technology often lead people to say "oh so AI is bad." My complaint isn't AI. My complaint is invasive company practices.
In kind of dumbfounded that there are people that believe this world is so just and pure that companies abd individuals can't and wont do something, simply because its technically illegal. Wholly agree with everything you all are saying here, this is terrifying stuff.
Oh, I remember this article. I actually read a book (Daemon) LONG ago that had this as a plot point. I'm not so surprised that this happened anymore, but the thing I most dislike about this new development is that the data sources exist, not that it's now accessible by us normies. I want people to be aware that this is a thing, and thinking about what all the companies that have had this data for years might have been doing with it already.
As a visually impaired person I would love to have glasses like these with the capability of telling me who is in front of me, where they are, text to speech and object and scene recognition. I wouldn’t buy it unless it was all local, but this would make everything so much simpler.
The argument that this already exists. Falls flat because, you don’t hear of such cases as much as we will with such a form factor. Which would prove that such form factor is a new vector undermining privacy.
Counterpoint to saying it's not a scam. The app markets that it provides you wallpapers created by real artists. They give you the number of wallpapers that you unlock with the subscription. However, some of these wallpapers have been shown to be AI generated. Some of these wallpapers are in fact not art at all, such as a solid orange background. In this case, the marketed number of artistc backgrounds created by artists is indeed fraudulent and therefore a scam.

This would be cool if it was a closed system. Like you could add your own notes and link them to a face. Being able to search the internet for info on the faces of strangers is pretty messed up.
I genuinely think this tech that gives you just a name and no other info would be more helpful then harmful. But having entire profiles on people is unhinged
6:48 Linus hits the Professor farnsworth issue of not wanting to live on the planet
That age college thing actually would really help me as I went to school a few years later than most
Theres a tv show called Contiuum that takes this concept to the furthest point and its god damned scary.
asking how recently someone was educated is different from asking their age. its much more relevant to job performance.
This has already happened in the secret services in the UK.
So, like, if you’ve ever interacted with a person that they believe were connected to the IRA, they already create such databases about you and around 6 degrees of separation with regards to the people you also interact with (allegedly from what I may or may not have been told by someone who may or may not have known).
It used to be paper based, until that is in around the 1990s they managed to computerise the system.
It’s only gotten ‘better’ from that point onwards.
So just the entire population of NI and ROI? I believe that's called a "census".
@@cym3 yes knowing who is there is... Correct.
However, knowing (or suspecting) who is an active member of the IRA and then who they talk to as well as the details for, say, the 6 people that they then also talk to such that you could pull out that information in an instant... Information that goes far deeper than that what is contained within the census just because you were on the phone with (maybe unknowingly) a person of interest is just a wee bit further than what I think you thought I believed I meant, wouldn't you agree?
Wasn't there a blackmirror episode about literally this? It's just a good time to attempt to purge all your data from the internet and social media
The big companies just looking at these kids replicating what they're already doing like "You weren't supposed to tell them..."
Just think about it. You look at someone and it tells you their name and starts showing you some of the their recent posts on social media. How many more fights do you think would break out between strangers by having this information thrown in their faces all the time?
Luke’s laugh has healing properties
The only way I can possibly fathom this being somewhat desirable is if there was some technological magic that would grant every single person a direct kill switch on their own personal data that is stored elsewhere. So like if you don't want a particular entity to have access to your data, you press a button and it's immediately deleted.
Alternatively they could force a monetary value to all datapoints related to an individual and require that all exchanges of personal data be compensated monetarily, similar to how royalties work. And by "force" I mean to say that the monetary transaction would be non-negotiable. It would not be allowed to be circumvented or waived away. If someone takes/uses your data, they would owe you money and you would not have the authority to give your data away without receiving proper financial compensation.
remember that tech doesn't advance when people do a cool thing, it advances when yesterday's cool thing becomes easy to do at scale
Meta and Google: Hey you can't do that, only we should.
"uhh its on public. You should have nothing to hide"
"Personal A.I" - "Hey, who turned out the lights?"...."Hey, who turned out the the lights?"
Really don't get the fear tbh, if it's already possible then...?
is there a git for that one project ? :D
I'm more afraid of the facial recognition being wrong and falsely accusing someone.
Riley's seat positions are EPIC. lol
A huge problem with this tech is that if someone else has internet cameras in their glasses, but they don't tell you. They might have consented to sell their soul to Zak, but if you have no idea and invite them into your house, you have also unknowingly invited the demon possessing them into your home. Everything about you, your house, your family, your pets, your data is now your friend's data, which is now Zak's data, which is now everyone with money's data. They might have consented to share their data, but you didn't. I feel the same way about smart tv's in other people's homes. They might have consented to have that camera there and share everything it sees and hears, but if they don't inform you about it and have you consent, then that's a massive loop hole to spy on other people in what seems to be a private space.
“They don’t use the data” this is an oxymoron connected to any giant IT company. They use it, sell it as many times as they can do.
I don't mind it being used for scanning for warrants, when it comes to my privacy to other people in public that's different. I don't need Jim knowing I frequent my local card shop.
12:28 - cant ask for age because of age based discrimination but are required to ask for their DOB to run a background check. Make it make sense
Most warrants are for minor crimes that do not deserve arrest. Giving cops the ability to see who has a warrant at any moment would do more harm than good.
Please do more LAN shows with Riley (or someone else) in the dramatic lighting pose.

linus says i dont wana live on this planet and im like id live in his warehouse if i could to work there.
I have very much the same feeling as Linus when he says "I read about this thing that I asked for". I've found that my concerns about this invasive technology often lead people to say "oh so AI is bad." My complaint isn't AI. My complaint is invasive company practices.
In kind of dumbfounded that there are people that believe this world is so just and pure that companies abd individuals can't and wont do something, simply because its technically illegal. Wholly agree with everything you all are saying here, this is terrifying stuff.

Riley is one of the best accumulation of pixels on TH-cam 😂
Oh, I remember this article. I actually read a book (Daemon) LONG ago that had this as a plot point. I'm not so surprised that this happened anymore, but the thing I most dislike about this new development is that the data sources exist, not that it's now accessible by us normies. I want people to be aware that this is a thing, and thinking about what all the companies that have had this data for years might have been doing with it already.
Thank gosh i live in Germany where filming people - even in public - is (mostly) illegal.
That will definitely stop people that are using the technology to commit crimes. Cuz, you know, filming in public is illegal.
we are steamrolling towards a dystopian cyberpunk timeline
As a visually impaired person I would love to have glasses like these with the capability of telling me who is in front of me, where they are, text to speech and object and scene recognition. I wouldn’t buy it unless it was all local, but this would make everything so much simpler.
Seeing AI has a feature like that.
"Locks only stop the honest."
The argument that this already exists. Falls flat because, you don’t hear of such cases as much as we will with such a form factor. Which would prove that such form factor is a new vector undermining privacy.
Your google history tied to your face and available for all to see is where this is going.
I'm watching this in the background, and I'm almost hearing the plot from Watchdogs 2 explained IRL...

Counterpoint to saying it's not a scam.
The app markets that it provides you wallpapers created by real artists. They give you the number of wallpapers that you unlock with the subscription. However, some of these wallpapers have been shown to be AI generated. Some of these wallpapers are in fact not art at all, such as a solid orange background. In this case, the marketed number of artistc backgrounds created by artists is indeed fraudulent and therefore a scam.
Sometimes overwhelmed of living in this planet also.
