nsa and cia can’t whack large number of americans without some risk of mutiny from the soldiers. ai based large scale precision strike does give them both the capability and excuse to do so. what’s easier, to ask 100k soldiers to kill 2-3 people each and feel no guilt or a dozen narcissistic psychopaths to kill 10k people each and feel godlike ? its not really rocket science just track their cell and do a missile/drone strike at the location with basic face detection. they don’t care for few false-positives. its not like any of the targets will be living near oligarchs palace or mega-yacht
you are right the lavender is far from skynet but it lets the israeli scums say that they are not indiscriminately killing innocents but based on petabytes of data analysed by microsoft. and you can’t punish ai for mistakes. bombing kids collecting water or destroying a dialysis center, oopsie sorry the ai hallucinated, we will ask trump for a multi-billion refund to buy more bombs for proper testing.

I haven’t seen any evidence of that. If anything, the number of ex-military in the new ICE would suggest the opposite.

Sure. Drop a bomb, kill a dozen people, get a little print out that says “all of these people were terrorists”.
It works well in Israel largely because the public (and particularly the military) are juiced on hate. They’ve already done 90% of the work of indoctrination up front.
You don’t even talk about hallucinations. You just say “data indicated terrorists” and move on.
But it’s trivial to tell a computer to tag a picture of a person as <img person=“terrorist”>. That’s not something Palmer Luckey needs a multi billion dollar payday to accomplish. Just like with Elon, a bunch of this tech is smoke and mirrors. It’s six guys dragging a CyberTaxi on stage, so a few dorks can step out and say “The Future is Magic Cars!”
