Further to my long thread the other day, an article on the territory shared by the Dark Enlightenment and the Dark Mountain Project: @darkmtn, @underscrutiny, @DrSmithTGeo, @csmaje.

It's hard to know where to start here. How can I give weight to the view of someone who thinks anarchism is "an aristocratic movement". Similarly, I'll be sure to stroll down to the local community garden and tell them that they're all on the right.

It's at the end that this piece becomes truly chilling. Artificial intelligence and predictive policing being our saviour? Spare me. Please have a read of something like thishttps://thebaffler.com/salvos/big-brothers-blind-spot-mcneil …

I didn’t say it was a good thing. I said that’s what a certain type of rightist wants, and that’s what’s happening in China. If the tech advances to detect, say, a sexual interest in children from a person’s face (facial features map to this) then I don’t see what will stop it.

Please read the article. In the case of facial recognition, you're fundamentally misunderstanding the efficacy of a very questionable tech. Anyway, feel free to DM if you want a more extended discussion. Twitter isn't the forum for expressing anything in depth

I don’t follow anyone, so I can’t DM you. The article, once the insinuations of racism and other attempted journo smears are stripped out, merely says that the tech is better than humans but not 100% reliable, i.e. it’s a question of refinement. Not if, but when.
