    Can we get the names of people who say that, so we can make sure they lose their jobs first?

      They are the original CCTV spy on your subjects regime since the 50’s.
      Now parking their facial recognition vans in front of stations.
      In that field they outscum even the USSA

          Not the first time with the NHS.
          I remember about 10 years ago they gave away medical records (twice and without consent).
          Don’t remember what the first one was but the other one was 50 000 ophtalmology records.
          This to a company called Eye-dentify.
          I’m sure you can guess the ‘medical research’ purpose it served.

          Considering you lot have HOAs, rampant monopolies, you lack autonomy like even the basic ability to change your name without a government process… I wouldn’t be too quick.

      Oh we’ve built an AI data centre, as in a massive building in a major city centre has been constructed. Just like with you the AI doesn’t seem to have any defined task it just exists so the company can announce that it’s an AI company. Not a single person in management seems to have any idea what it might be used for, so I suspect it’s just going to sit there and do nothing.

      There’s quite a lot of work that’s already been automated by various python scripts so it’s not even as if the AI is going to bring any automation to the table. Not that I would trust it anyway.

      They have announced that as a result of this AI, they expect their profits to increase 4x despite the complete lack of any direction. Fun times ahead I am sure.

    123 out of 205 NHS hospital trusts have already adopted Palantir’s data system.

    The only thing Orwell was wrong about was the dates.
