… You do realize that AI is a tool which can make stalking monstrously easy?
How does it do that? Ask it step by step instructions on how to stalk? If there is some other way in your mind, then I’d posit that AI also makes anti stalking monstrously easy. It’s a tool right?
Ask it to monitor all public cameras and notify when it finds the face you are stalking.
Ask it to analyze your known movement patterns based on public check ins and guess at future locations. Or ask it to monitor profile for check ons and give updates.
I'm not sure if your naive or argumentative.
or
AI, give me the list of everyone who is likely to stalk me based on their public profile
where are these tools available?
They aren’t as far as I’m aware. But a year ago, chatgpt didn’t exist either. It’s not a huge technological leap. Especially now it’s getting linked in to google and bing, which in turn are linked to your online presence with email, tracking etc.
The question is if they will be locked down well enough?
