oh my god now there's a "future of prison" startup that says it will use AI and brain implants to plant fake memories into the brains of criminals, "rehabilitating" them in minutes instead of years and I am going to spend the rest of the day screaming now

That is terrifying. If a person is later exonerated, would they have a claim for cruel and inhumane punishment? Could the harm be undone after having guilt imprinted for a crime you didn't commit?
It's nuts, let's try making sure everyone has their basic needs met instead, maybe?
Then they won't have to do crimes in the first place and we'll be able to cut police and prison services and save billions, all while helping people have a better life 🤷♀️
