A lot of people think that the power of the state, even in Western democracies, favors the rich and powerful against the little guy, through corruption and regulatory capture. What they don't realise is that, even in the much less than

One very interesting thing that was mentioned in the interview is how much Facebook relies on deep learning right now; specifically, how hate speech detection went from 75% manual to something like 2.5% manual, and how manual false negative

To clarify, I'm not against the idea of punishment for theft, but humans aren't simple reward maximising bots. IMHO no punishment doesn't work, and also too much punishment doesn't work.
