Fucking why?? Why is everyone so intent on shoehorning this half baked garbage tech into literally everything?
Plausible deniability.
Exactly, it's a tool to whitewash decisions. A machine that seemingly does not exactly what it should do. A way to shake off responsibility.
And that it won't ever work right is its best trait for this purpose. They'll be able to blame every transgression or wrong where they are caught on an error in the system, and get away with the rest.
At least unless it's legally equated to using Tarot cards for making decisions affecting lives. That should disqualify the fiend further as a completely inadequate human being, not absolve them of responsibility.
Keir Starmer is trying to out-fascist the fascists, and fascists love to experiment on children.
Also, apparently capitalism doesn't work unless everyone hypes whatever the techbros are selling this week.
Not everyone. Tech bros, stock bros and the incredibly stupid. Yes there's some overlap.
