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

This whole company is obviously making shit up and selling snake oil, but also it is important for everyone to understand that it is morally good to set fire to this company's headquarters
Yeah, like - it would be terrifying if it worked, but now I just wonder how these idiots can get people to uncritically publish shit about a technology that does not exist and doesn't work.
There's "doesn't work" like ChatGPT doesn't work and Rabbit doesn't work or whatever.
But this is more like how the millennium falcon doesn't exist and doesn't work, even though someone made a youtube short about building a lego model of it.
Right. This would be several tens of million dollars worth of work to even *have* a thing that doesn't work, as opposed to just not working out of the gate
apart from anything else, just think it's noteworthy that someone was able to consider a world where you can inject thoughts and slow time and immediately jumped to "torture prisoners" rather than, idk, vacations, or ability to read libraries of books, or any not psychopathic use for that tech
