DAY 1 IN DAVOS: USING AI TO USHER IN A 'SAFE DIGITAL FUTURE'

 

Rebel News, May 23, 2022

As the power of the surveillance state continues to expand, can citizens trust governments to safeguard personal privacy?
Each annual meeting of the World Economic Forum, spearheaded by Klaus Schwab and his puppets, has a different theme. This year, it's all about gaining trust — oh, we wonder why they feel the need to do that?

The first day of meetings was comprised of many subjects, ranging from the use of artificial intelligence on the street, ushering in a “safe” digital future, to even central bank digital currencies.

Let's begin by talking about AI on the street.

The WEF's angle is that as social unrest and organized retail crime has spiked over the last year, many governments and businesses have turned to artificial intelligence, including facial recognition, to bolster law enforcement.

The expanding scope of this technology has led to public concern and calls for regulation, but investment growth looks set to continue.

How can we ensure that the use of AI in public services and spaces does not conflict with the public interest?

With the use of China's artificial intelligence, from robotic dogs barking COVID orders at citizens, to the drones in Shanghai restricting citizens from singing on their balconies, we have seen the effects of what happens when you let a control-hungry government use these tactics because they believe that this is for a “greater cause”.

We haven't and will not forget.
