Yes.
Looks like things are worse now when only rabid syncophants are approved for government.

I just watched the movie "Idiocracy".
I highly recommend it. For a 20 year old film, it's remarkably prescient. The society of the future it depicts is very similar to our society today.
- reality show President
- total corporate takeover
- bread and circuses to "rehabilitate" anybody who has wrong thoughts
- incredibly stupid people everywhere

Events of the last few months have destroyed the myth of "I don't have to worry if I'm not doing anything wrong".
The government will use any excuse to detain you... just being in the same city where something bad happened (and then "fleeing" that city) will put you on the top of the list.

Of course you always turn your phone off while you're driving so its spyware can't track you?

The problem is that the capitalists will take all the profits from "efficiencies" in AI just as they have taken all of the benefits in worker productivity for the past thirty years.
Our resident Nazi tech oligarch, Musk, has told us not to worry since when AI takes over we will all have universal "high" income.
It's not clear how this will work since the ruling class has been using all of its political power to cut any benefits for the peons and transfer all wealth to themselves.
Musk himself was instrumental in the Dodgy program to cut billions in government spending that would have gone to help regular folks so that they could give tax cuts to the rich.

Just send in Trumps ICE agents and "free" the slaves.
These operations are not "a basic warehouse". They are large compounds with housing, offices and electricity, Internet and phone services. They are very vulnerable to police raids if anyone really cared.

We need to keep track of the peons so they don't slack off and decrease our profits.

All new research requires ethics review.
They have to show that the patient data is suffiently de identified.
That is fairly easy for most data sets.
However, since no one can know how the AI derived the synthetic data, it's impossible to prove that it's deidentified.

Interesting that scams have attracted big money to institutionalize the greed.
Instead of small time mom and pop scammers (who reaped the benefits) we now have an entire infrastructure of prison like cities exploiting the poor and reaping the profits.
It seems to me this is the same model of all modern corporations. Exploit workers and grab profits.

Looks like almost all beers have PFAS from the water they use for brewing.
Unfortunately, we have failed to control PFAS and they are now everywhere and will need to be filtered/removed.

Bike Lanes.
London has terrible bicycle infrastructure.
Bikes are forced to use the road where they are at risk from cars or use the sidewalks where they are at risk of pedestrian crashes.
Look at a city like Geneva where there are well demarcated bike lanes with their own traffic signals. Much safer.
Stop blaming bicyclists.

Switzerland has had compulsory insurance for all bicycles for many years. You just buy an annual sticker for the bike (about 50 Francs).
Seemed reasonable to cover liability and injuries.
e-bikes have some special risks... mostly clueless people who ride them at high speed... it seems education and regulation would be effective here just as we educate and regulate cars and trucks.

The AI would have to prove the there is no individual patient identification possible in the output.
That's probably impossible.

The AI is fed (and stores) real patient medical data. This is done without any ethical review.
The fact that it regurgitates "synthetic" data is irrelevant.
