Dystopia was hiding behind official lies, while already being in the works: "The emails also show that Google and its partners worked extensively to develop machine learning algorithms for the Pentagon, with the goal of creating a sophisticated system that could surveil entire cities. ... 'the wisdom and strength of our people will bring about multi-order-of-magnitude improvements in safety and security for the world' ... Google intended to build a 'Google-earth-like' surveillance system ... Google’s artificial intelligence would bring 'an exquisite capability' for 'near-real time analysis'" paired with drone-killing.
[added for the down-haters]
Examples of the lies:
- concerned employees were told that Google’s DoD contract was worth only $9 million
- "Google downplayed its work, saying it had merely provided its open-source TensorFlow software to the Pentagon"
In the name of building real-time, total surveillance in support of automated killing by drones.
