    This statement is useless in this context. AI can recognize patterns like the best of us and thats all you need to accomplish voter suppression.

      People treat AI like computers were treated in the 90s and 00s.

      It is not magic. You’re still handwaving. “Recognizing patterns” is not sufficient to suppress voting.

        Do you not understand how ingesting enormous amounts of civilian data can lead to voter suppression? If I know everything about you I can stop you from voting all together. I can target blue areas and block parts of the city off with cops to make it harder to get to the polls. I can find out which cities are strongholds of my greatest enemies and send ICE there for “Immigration activities”. You’d have to be brain dead to not realize what you can do with this.

          No - I don’t. And neither do you. You just told me that “you can” but not “how”. It’s more handwaving. Exactly what would you do with all the information you have about me?

          You are moving the goalposts. No amount of detail can assuage your definition of “handwaving”.

          I didn’t move the goalposts - nobody has shot on net yet.
