I know that it's very obviously a dangerous political tool if it gains any institutional power. And if you don't understand that, watch the video. But even on a technical, non-social level:
There is no real explanation given as so how this system will supposedly determine truth. Just vague pointing to inapplicable abstracted concepts like scientific method and law.
There is 0% (not rounded down) chance that this system can do its advertised job. It is a censorship tool.
It's backed by the CIA, large banks, and Palantir - it's obvious and I have no doubt that that's where they'll get YOUR DATA from.
Investors like that will aid the company, greatly, because they have a financial incentive to see a return on their investment.
Seems weird to just be like; "Oh hey chums, don't worry some-guy-online©™ is saying it will never work."
Thanks for your optimism, but do you know anything about Palantir? That they started out as the fruad detection department of early Ebay? Figured out how to ID individuals from large quantities of anonymized data - then went to the CIA and US government to make similar tools for them?
VERY optimistic.
