China total surveillance AI
 
http://www.bbc.com/news/av/world-asi...l-seeing-state

It is not only that they are able to see all, they are installing a system that punishes or promotes you, depending on how you behave.
Crossed a road with red lights?
Said something critical about the system?
Used too much water while showering?
You are an Uighur?
Goodbye to your job, or jail.

" .... Chinese surveillance technology ― which, in many cases, is being developed at least partially with funding from Silicon Valley venture capital firms ― isn’t limited to use in China.
In 2014, a Chinese telecom company sold monitoring technology to the government of Ethiopia, which has been brutally cracking down on protesters. Brazil, Kenya, Ecuador and Britain have all purchased Chinese video monitoring systems as well. ..."


And it is able to survey every. single. human. being. Automatically.
I already thought that London was bad with its millions of cameras, but this is the wet dream of every totalitarian state.

We are plotting the same course. We only hide it more subtle. Still.

Cattle will have higher status than humans the way this is going on.

Already a precedent, the cow and India for examp[le.

Not just India: the summer I spent in Central America, I found out cattle were so highly valued that if you were driving down a road and found the road ahead blocked by any cattle (a pretty common occurrence outside of the main cities), it was a high criminal offense to attempt to shoo away the cattle by even nudging them with your vehicle, much less actually hitting them; you pretty much just had to wait until the herd decided to split or, if they had them, the herders moved them along...

I heard a rumor about an unnamed third world country from a reliable source (my cousin who builds aquamarine's) that the natives will throw a calf or a goat or animals like that in front of a foreigners automobile and the local constable will stop you and charge you something like $300.
