What an unhinged rant. Even 30 seconds after posting I can barely understand my point. I’ll leave it there unedited though.

The root cause of this issue that they identify, is 100% the kind of AI that they’ll build for this situation.

Old mate wants to use it to keep people on their best behaviour. The kind of subjective wording that whatever he doesn’t like, is the exact reason people lie in court.

Power to that thought process through systemising it, legitimising it, is exactly part of the problem.

What’s that American who said lies about the eating cats then justifying it by saying “I’d lie if it got the American public to wake up”. Let me get the quote…

If I have to create stories so that the American media actually pays attention to the suffering of the American people, then that’s what I’m going to do.

Yep. It’s not infallible, it’s intentional. Intent goes into the creation of systems and implementations. These are the kind of people that want these systems. They’re justified in their own minds.

So to close the loop you linked that article and it’s point was:

More than half of wrongful convictions can be traced to witnesses who lied

Don’t give them reason for more ways to do so. Don’t give them legitimacy. That’s deterministic. It’s intent. It’s not failed if it worked. Your opinion on a system which is failed or fallible is not the same as the Oracle hocho who wants to be God.

They’re not sharing your values, morals, ethics or compassion.

I saw a sign on each street light on a bike path in my town that said “these street lights use aluminium cabling because the copper was stolen”.

Your plan will work.

I just asked google that exact question and it said “The current world population is 8,171,661,997”

Hmm, so, policy in our office is a clean desk. Before you jump to conclusions, it’s because our secured area and office occasionally has people come through that should absolutely not see what information we have on our desks. This requirement is a compliance issue for our continued contracts and certifications.

Our work from home policy hasn’t addressed this issue, but it sounds like it’s a clear gap. Your neighbour coming around for a cup of tea absolutely should not be able to see any work related information.

My assumption is that someone has considered this kind of aspect and had a check to confirm that they’ve done diligence by asking you to reveal your working space. A space the companies sensitive information would be visible. Actually you too should maybe not be looking at your wife’s screen nor materials on her work desk. Depending on the situation.

Either way, policy comes first so perhaps her employment agreement or employee handbook would reveal more.
