I’m not sure about Australia’s laws, but in the US, that could result in recusal of the judge on the grounds of bias.

Chattel slavery is different than indentured servitude. There is no ownership of the indentured servant, but they are forced to work against their will. This is the slavery found in Xinjiang, as well as the US penal system.

There has to be potential for discovery by using AI with microscopic surgical tools to systematically dissect a diseased cadaver.

I’m sure there will be pushback to teaching and enabling AI to dice up humans though.

I agree. Many people make the mistake of getting their news exclusively served through algorithms. They see a very skewed painting of the world based on what they’ve shown interest in previously.

Opinions are absolutely subjective, but the content they’re based on is also skewed.

If all of the news you consumed was curated through an engagement algorithm, it would change the way you see the world. Your opinions would be based on that perception.

It’s the media, not the people. If you read the same article from sources across the political spectrum, you’ll find the further right you go, the more information is omitted and the more opinionated the journalist becomes. So, someone who reads primarily right wing and centrist media will naturally have a right wing opinion when reading centrist articles.

I highly recommend his books of poetry and illustrations. They’re often marketed to kids, but they’re absolutely for all ages.
