Those humans who wrote scriptures thousands of years ago obviously didn't make any mistakes. Kill the abortionists/Arabs/Jews/dumb people who don't understand my perfect opinion (isn't a 100% certainty about there being a god actually a sin of perfection?) I think sensors will be able to be jammed pretty easily at a high cost. But the sensors searching for very dangerous goods like Unfriendly AI and WMD should be protected by law, even if they infringe upon some personal freedoms. I agree with L Blanck: Praise Allah.

This is not to say that there aren't legitimate concerns to raise about AI. —Christine This particular post is about networks of relatively dumb sensors, rather than artificial intelligence per se.

Imagine being monitored and controlled by your artificial God through sensors placed in, on, and around you! Imagine that God, made in the image of new age humans, who tell those who don't agree with them that people must "...adapt, or die..."! Such a loving concept, isn't it? Guess some of us are in the way of progress! You don't suppose that Super AI might be something more than humanity will be able to control do you? That "it" might read human thoughts and cause human "dreams", including nightmares, to become reality? Could "it" even cause other humans to construct an image for "it", so that you superhumans can worship "it"?

I guess it will be up to us as concerned citizens to make sure that the appropriate laws are in place to prevent misuse of this technology. Of course, limiting access to the information provided by these sensor nets will pose yet another problem.
