What is wild about all this is looking back to the old social contract and how it basically made this fobitted forbidden.

The best example is the movie minority report in which the had a fool proof way to 100% of the time predict the future.

I won’t spoil the movie, but the whole premise was that even if there was one instance of it making a mistake, and a innocent person was put on ice by mistake, then the whole thing had to be shut down.

And in today’s reality: all of big tech’s new tools make mistakes constantly, sometimes more than getting things right, and it’s still full steam ahead on the rollout.

MFW dystopia movies were too optimistic

    fobitted

    I'm sure this is a typo of some kind, but I can't for the life of me work out what it was."Predicted"? "Foretold"? I'm sure I'm being dense and just missing something obvious, but I'd love to hear what.
