Comment on Bruce Schneier: China Possibly Hacking US “Lawful Access” Backdoor
tardigrada@beehaw.org 1 month agoI get what you mean by highlighting that no current technology can distinguish between good and bad guys, but I feel there will never be a technology that can do that. A backdoor can easily be used by your government/law enforcement to suppress people and eliminate freedoms, even if there may have been best initial intentions for such a backdoor. This is a fundamentally human -rather than a technological- issue.

That’s my best guess too, but you could plausibly argue otherwise. I just went with something undisputable that still supports the main point.

Here I’ve built software that can detect the difference between good guys and bad guys, it uses Artificial Intelligence.

I mean, that’s what it would have to be, right? OP probably thinks it’s impossible because GAI is impossible. I think it’s likely impossible because there probably is no precise moral system we could all agree on, even roughly.
Either way, it’s far off at the very least, and we’re going to have to advance the cause of good, whatever that may be, the old fashioned political way.

Mother of god if someone actually tried to push that I would run for office for the explicit purpose of killing it dead and loudly vilifying the dumbfuck who thought of it into never making anything again.
