If there is perfect lie detecting technology I could see all kinds of chaos resulting from it. I can't see it only be applied only to politicians, and I think it would be the developers of the technology who decide the use.
I think were we disagree is that you sort of see AI as an extension of technological progress whereas I see it more like an extension of evolution. I view the process of AI training as functioning in a similar way to evolution in that it build circuits into neural networks similar to how evolution built circuits into human brains.
>> What happens when politicians can no longer lie without being caught out live on air?
A 5-second delay on a politician's presser. Any lies will be muted in real time and the actual facts presented onscreen. Continue to lie enough, and the politician gets unstreamed.
It's only true if you believe that "putting the burden of living on a dying planet on the future generations" counts as "navigating".
