Okay sure but in many cases the tech in question is actually useful for lots of other stuff besides repression. I don't think that's the case with LLMs. They have a tiny bit of actually usefulness that's completely overshadowed by the insane skyscrapers of hype and lies that have been built up around their "capabilities".
With "AI" I don't see any reason to go through such gymnastics separating bad actors from neutral tech. The value in the tech is non-existent for anyone who isn't either a researcher dealing with impractically large and unwieldy datasets, or of course a grifter looking to profit off of bigger idiots than themselves. It has never and will never be a useful tool for the average person, so why defend it?
I am an average person, and my GPU is running a chatbot which currently gives me a course in Regular Expressions. My GPU also generates images for me from time to time when i need an image, because i am crappy at drawing. There are a lot of uses for the technology.

Yeah, they use knives instead.
The knife homicide rate is literally higher in the US.

The only hope is to immigrate to a place without this shit.

I don't understand why she was arrested, her "threat" was obviously a joke. I guess jokes are illegal now

It not just schools. Its everywhere. I was on reddit just last week, talking about when I was 15 and fancying one of my teachers. I got banned for "soliciting sex from a minor"... And whats worse, when I appealed, they upheld it. Some human actually read a comment in which I spoke about when I was 15. And took that to mean I was asking kids if they want to see some puppies or something. The insane online world of the far left and right has fucked us all.

AI is a virus
AI is a machine that cannot be held accountable and has no will.
Stop being distracted by the tool, look at the humans.

This is frustrating. Obviously it's not okay to make jokes like that and I even think some sort of punishment might be okay, but strip searching and jailing her overnight? You aren't creating someone who will think before they speak, you're making someone who will be paranoid of all legal processes and never trust any government official ever again for anything because they got fucking STRIP SEARCHED AND DETAINED OVERNIGHT over a really shitty joke.
It's ok to make jokes.

No no no no.

AI is all about the humans.

Something tells me that our type of jokes are on the way out bro. As you said, there's no room for nuance in this story, so I'm afraid we'll eventually all be listened in on 100% of the time until someone says something 'actionable'.
If you're not already on a multitude of lists by now, you're doing something wrong.Nah, dark humor is like a child with cancer, it never gets old.

Wasn't intended to be. But evil people will find a way to do evil.

If you think I'm trying to say the US is better.. by any measure LOL! -No. The US is a shithole.
My point is that if you take guns out of the equation they'll just be replaced by something else.

What a great way to prepare students for our AI enabled social media and digital surveillance society. Take note kids, trust no one!

how is the school even seeing that stuff? does the software just let them see everything they do?

The problem is a societal one. lets see:
- The kids for bullying her for her tan
- The school boards implementing the surveillance
- The parents who allowed such surveillance in the first place
- The person screening what was flagged for not sending the school counselor to talk with the kid
- The person calling the cops
- The cops for arresting an 8th-grader and DOING A STRIP SEARCH AND KEEPING HER OVERNIGHT WTF instead of handing her over to her parents
This has gone through too many hands to even start blaming the companies. anyone in this chain had the opportunity to do the right thing (ok, maybe the teens didn't, they don't know any better). Noone did.
Surveillance shouldn't be so pervasive, but i have no issue with e.g. surveillance in a prison, maybe in a hospital (not in the patient rooms, but to make sure noone steals the good stuff or to make sure no patients are lost in a service tunnel), at a border, inside of police stations to make sure that prisoner rights are upheld, military bases for obvious reasons and so on.
Your society is the issue, and therefor surveillance is everywhere except where it would be useful.
You're evidently an apologist for these crappy companies.
2 or 3 parents can't do jack shit to avoid this, short of removing the kids from school and having them homeschooled.
There are 3 main factors that allow this shit to happen:
- Companies with absolutely no values and only focusing on revenue, which ends up creating these bullshit AI "systems" that are broken as hell (Chatgpt 5 anyone?)
- Lack of legislations to serve the people that voted for these legislators to live in a better society, but they choose to self-serve and allow the same shitty companies to do whatever they want AND sell their shit to institutions, like schools, law enforcement and such, so that they can get money from them
- Authorities that use these same broken "systems", don't even test them correctly, and take for granted that they will work because they are too fucking lazy to even care, such as schools (that have authority over our kids because we have allowed it) and law enforcement (if they can even still be called that).
There is no way to justify any of the 3 factors as they exist today. These need to change if anything is to get better.
That there are parents that could be doing more to avoid this kind of shit? Absolutely. Will parents pushing for change do anything towards fixing it? Not if the other 3 factors don't play their part as well.
And the reason fucking kids are so fragile today is because of us allowing everything to be called "bullying". So, they joked about the tan, big fucking deal. Learn to take a fucking joke or go live in a cave.
Get fucking real.
