It’s time for another carrington event!

I guess they don’t realize we’re in the early stages of WW3.

I don’t know… I feel the world has become so strange after covid.

Covid does affect the brain.

But seriously, people have always been that stupid, it’s just that capitalism and fascism are a race towards the bottom, that speeds up over time.

2035? I’d have argued most of these things are already here or at least trivially close…

no privacy - Corporate overlords have been declaring us “post-privacy” for a looooong-ass time, and Governments and their enforcers have been chomping at the bit for at least as long, because they want in on the game

robot cops - Palantir Gotham plus semi-autonomous drones; It’s a question of degree, not of when.

robots displacing workers - Has literally been happening for more than half a century; The current LLM bullshit is going to give it another push, obviously.

robot rights - Well, are LLM companies just violating copyright or are LLMs simply ordinary artists that learn by looking at other folks art, just like their human forebears? (It doesn’t matter what you think, it matters what we as society ultimately make of that and I wouldn’t be optimistic)

criminals with hundreds of drones - They’ve been running humongous botnets for decades; If they see a business case for doing something drone-wise in meatspace they’ll absofuckinglutely do so today rather than tomorrow, and maybe they already are and we’re just not aware because it’s still flying under the radar.

If you aren’t expecting some variation of full-on Cyberpunk right now I honestly don’t know what you’re waiting for…

Since they’re law enforcement I interpreted the report as them preparing for the worst possible outcomes given upcoming tech, and then escalating in response to that.

Surely they’re gonna build a robot police force with no oil, no gallium, and no robot factories.

I predict a 2035 with no europe.

(Although I do like the idea of being a criminal commanding hundreds of robots. The republican space cops with their slave armies and idealism magic would hate me. CIS ftw.)

I’d like to watch the full length video. The link doesn’t work obviously. Can you point me in the right direction?

The Bitchute link should work. Here’s one directly to the mp4: zbbb278hfll091.bitchute.com/…/jmhFAjqbxnQ.mp4. Again, it’s about 49 minutes in that talks about the Europol report.

Sounds like somebody at Europol just had a blast playing Detroit Become Human.

All of your links (apart from the PDF) are broken, mate.

Whats the alternative, let China and Russia build up the technology and we stay in the past?

The US has the largest military because its the reserve currency, they print money and export their inflation and they spend that money on military expenditures, which prevents people from moving off USD.

This then lets them sanction other countries and control the worlds shipping lanes, so asking them to stop developing their military is asking for the existing global order to cease to exist, and then you’re at the whims of whatever power fills that void.
