“an intelligence of deadly artifice” – that is to say, a #neocrime #manifesto

In 2016, I met someone who works for Irish intelligence. They were tracking a significant AI and data-science organisation. Maybe not the people at the top, but the outliers who sniff around. Late 2019, I met the two founders of a British AI company, who claimed direct connections with the British “deep state” (in this case, according to them, GCHQ). They appeared not to know … Continue reading “an intelligence of deadly artifice” – that is to say, a #neocrime #manifesto

we need to do much better #ivepics

So I agree. But let me offer you an example for you to better understand my position over the past 17¾ years. Torija explains how in the 1970s representative democracy represented the interests of the median voter. By 2009, the right-wing parties represented the top 3 percentiles. The left-wing, no more than the top 6. If we accept Torija is right, and our representative democracy … Continue reading we need to do much better #ivepics

… and in digital, where I have thought, I am!

It’s been my assertion, for quite a while now, that if I – if, actually, any of us – can imagine something quite different from that which has previously existed, someone else will already have imagined it first. In a world of the electromechanical and of Edisonian magick, it took only the resources of sufficient to turn a new concept into something manufacturably doable. However, … Continue reading … and in digital, where I have thought, I am!

“wind-up or #terrorism on the individual: when does a tease become a sleaze?” #saturday #reflections

Part I You may say everything I have reported was just a wind-up, and the sour, dour and dull individual I am simply failed to see the joke. But when does a tease become a sleaze? Surely, when a #drone of beautiful photography becomes a killer of mortal combat. Even if EVERYTHING I have experienced – and from my point of view suffered severely from, … Continue reading “wind-up or #terrorism on the individual: when does a tease become a sleaze?” #saturday #reflections

“plausible deniability: the cancer of tech’s very own century, pwned” – a short #proposal

From software bugs and corporate CEOs of charismatic leadership to political & media fakeries and utterly implausible diesel-emission tests, tech’s plausible deniability has meant that the buck now stops anywhere but here. In my proposed #PhD I want to: a) start out by provisionally evidencing that this is the case, in order that we might b) provide the tech tools so ordinary people can begin … Continue reading “plausible deniability: the cancer of tech’s very own century, pwned” – a short #proposal

this thing gloriously called “peritaje social” …

I have a family member who unashamedly, proudly, self-declares in a work context to be a bitch. Her words, not mine; and proclaimed to many more people than myself. So for a change, no secrets unveiled here. But one example of how bullies get to rule over the world of business, politics, work, and alleged leisure. And get properly rewarded for it too. Today, I … Continue reading this thing gloriously called “peritaje social” …

#killerapp #freedom #ai @betterbizme

If one thing ties together all that is wrong in 21st century life – and here I mean #business, #politics, a wider #society, alongside a competent #democracy of #human #goodwill and #community – it is the #bullies of this world and their casual, daily acts of #violence and #abuse. Better Biz Me proposes using well-understood #ai to turn the #victims of such aggressions into protagonists … Continue reading #killerapp #freedom #ai @betterbizme

cyber-bullying in an age of encroaching #ai / western liberal #democracy / delivering on one’s life’s #dreams

Early to bed, early to rise … I had a useful meeting at a local hospital the day before yesterday, which helped clarify the future focus of Better Biz Me Ltd. Two fronts of action I will be looking to move forwards on two fronts: 1) By deepening our understanding of cyber- and offline-bullying, understood as integrated and seamlessly informing each other, in the age … Continue reading cyber-bullying in an age of encroaching #ai / western liberal #democracy / delivering on one’s life’s #dreams

“break Brexit, not the United Kingdom.” – bringing it home on Brexit’s violence

Everything the UK ever stood for is broken by Brexit: savagely, abusively, small-mindedly, stupidly; shooting madly in the footedly; cutting nose way off to spite the faces foolishly of our beautiful, unwavering future adults and current children. How anyone can possibly contemplate building a new Britain of falling standards is beyond my ken. They said at the time of Iraq that democracy would – all … Continue reading “break Brexit, not the United Kingdom.” – bringing it home on Brexit’s violence

“bullying is NEVER democratically admissible”

… a short #reflection on preserving a better #democracy Whether you work in security, as a spy, for the government in any capacity, in private industry, in the most pressure-laden roles, for people and companies both big and small … whatever you do and however you do it, bullying is NEVER democratically admissible. Two days ago and this evening I was bullied. And it was … Continue reading “bullying is NEVER democratically admissible”

“my theory about yesterday: #discretion’s ongoing violent self-defence”

… a #truestory Yesterday, I worked at an event. I was assigned, as a newbie, an area where I was told it was really important to check badges in order to gain entrance. The location I was given had no CCTV. I was trolled from beginning to end by badge-holders. Many people ensured their badges could not be seen, so I had to ask intrusively, … Continue reading “my theory about yesterday: #discretion’s ongoing violent self-defence”

how you deliver what no one gives you

… a short #reflection I realise now I no longer need to be liked. I no longer even WANT to be liked. I just want to spend the rest of my life keeping people around me safe, alive, fulfilled and dignified. Today this didn’t happen to me. And it was because of professionals who, of all kinds of people, should know much better than they … Continue reading how you deliver what no one gives you
