Yes, extremely concerning. Recently new advancements in AI have shown it is possible to read your mind. Reconstruct images of your mind from what you have seen. We are headed into a deep tech dystopia. Even more disturbing are the number of people with eyes filled of Utopian dreams of what the AI future is going to bring. Some are eager to become the new Borg or Cybermen. Society is in a state of anxiety largely driven by technology's effect on socialization. The irony is that many will immerse themselves deeper into tech to try to escape the anxiety. A society death spiral. I've written a lot more on the topic as well - https://dakara.substack.com/p/ai-and-the-end-to-all-things https://dakara.substack.com/p/ai-and-the-end-to-all-things

13years, your posted page seems to request Digital Rights Management plugins... Is the inclusion of that necessary? I am not sure of how much privacy and DRM can be consistent.

  It is hosted on substack. I've never heard of it requesting any plugins. That is odd.

    Other pages of Substack don't do that. Is it possible that it could be that «Music commentary» from Spotify?
    - 13years 4y ago
      Ahh yes, had not thought of that. So when I added the link, substack embedded the player. I think I can remove it and replace with a normal link.

      I have now updated the article and removed the Spotify embed with a normal link. Thank you.

    Yes, it's not real, see the discussion here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35012981 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35012981

      That discussion yielded interesting debate and I would conclude the results as being inconclusive at present. Also yielded other projects doing similar work. https://arxiv.org/abs/2302.10121 https://arxiv.org/abs/2302.10121
