I know (hope) this is satire, but this is why I take issue with the AI branding. It too often gets conflated with the sci-fi thinking of AI. A random forest model that calculates your credit score isn't going to magically gain self-awareness and autonomy and a hatred for humanity. Even if it did, we have a magical power called the power button.

It doesn't technical have to be one model. A model that scans for high risk patients, then passes that into another model which takes actions, which can also be fed data from the police and mass surveillance with that it can also eliminate coverage for "anti-AI" people.

  You're being ridiculous. Are you saying that computer system could gain sentience?

    Also does its really have to be sentient? All it has to do is just recognize Anti-AI behavior as a health or security risk, that's it. There was an anti-crime AI that flagged Congress members too, so its not far fetched.
