This is my main objection to such a society as well. Losing one's freedom has more repercussions than the problems we have right now. Being controlled completely by AIs sounds very scary as well.Smrithi Arun wrote: ↑05 Mar 2023, 22:49 I don’t think the society portrayed in the book is better off than ours. We may have a lot of issues, but at least we have some level of freedom. The thought of being watched 24/7 by AI is unacceptable to me. Living in a world where one literally has to fear a robot? I won’t have it.
