I don't think that this will hold water, at least in the long term.
If you and I both input identical prompts - detailed ones - they will produce different results.
This seems to indicate that the machine is doing the work, not you or me.

There appears to be no investigation as to the biological mechanism that facilitates the growth of new neurons. Some say it's the protiens in fish, but little is known in fact.
So, this is an observation but gives us nothing to act upon.

There is, however, the expectation that the government cannot legally track you absent reasonable suspicion.
And outsourcing this to private industry is a very shitty constitutional hack.

The very concepts of 'public' and 'private' predate the evolving panopticon that is our modern society.
I would argue that people do have an expectation of anonymity in public spaces. I would also argue that they do not have an expectation that they are individually tracked wherever they go.
And that's not just fuzzy 'yeah, but cellphones', because cellphones are providing a valuable (to many) service that results in a trade of privacy for convenience.
Flock cameras exist for one purpose: tracking people. We are getting nothing in return.

Surprised that more people are not commenting on the ubiquitous installation of Flock cameras everywhere. And the fact that they are very insecure and easily hacked is the least problem with them; the privacy implications are staggering.

You are so full of shit.
First of all, in a perfect 'capitalist economy' (I think you mean 'perfect market'), polluters driving ICE vehicles would have to pay for all of the crap they dump into the environment. And it would be a lot, making EVs more attractive.
Oh, and the USA definitely does *not* have a perfect market for anything. You are delusional.
