Argentina’s new Artificial Intelligence Unit Applied to Security will be tasked with surveillance in the real and virtual worlds. Experts warn about privacy violations
I think Argentina was already there, but I get your point.
The problem is politicians tend to live in bubbles where they are protected from the consequences of their own actions and often are old and not particularly tech-savvy. So they get pulled in by things like AI and blockchain because they sound like having your cake and eating it.
The AI techbros go to them and promise them the world, they make it sound so great that the philosophers stone would be less attractive. The eagerly lap all this nonsense up and then we get announcements about pre-crime or something.

Oh, I was talking about the tech-bros. They’re the ones who shouldn’t have access to sci-fi, or at least not the cautionary tales
1984 was never meant to be a guide damn it!
To be honest I’m pretty certain that none of them have actually read the 1984 they dont strike me as being particularly book orientated.
if they read more than the ticker on faux news, maybe they’d have more empathy.
