Just listened to Naomi Brockwell talk about how AI is basically the perfect surveillance tool now.
Her take is very interesting: what if we could actually use AI against that?
Like instead of trying to stay hidden (which honestly feels impossible these days), what if AI could generate tons of fake, realistic data about us? Flood the system with so much artificial nonsense that our real profiles basically disappear in the noise.
Imagine thousands of AI versions of me browsing random sites, faking interests, triggering ads, making fake patterns. Wouldn’t that mess with the profiling systems?
How could this be achieved?
First, Naomi and her team are doing a fantastic work in security for masses, easily top 5 worldwide!
AI is capable but we are still failing at program it properly, gosh, even well funded companies are still doing a poor job at it… (just look at the misplaced ads and ineffective we still get.)
What I want, and it is easy to do TODAY, is AI checking our FOSS… so many we use and just a tiny, tiny minority of it goes with some scrutiny. We need AI to go through the FOSS code looking for maliciousness now.
