Oracle CEO Larry Ellison Advocates for AI-Powered Surveillance Networks

Ellison envisions comprehensive AI surveillance to monitor police and citizens, sparking privacy and bias concerns.

Larry Ellison proposes an always-on AI surveillance system using police body cameras, car cameras, and drones.
Ellison claims this technology will improve police behavior and public safety, but evidence supporting these claims is limited.
Critics argue that AI surveillance could exacerbate existing biases and privacy issues, citing past failures in predictive policing programs.
AI-powered surveillance technologies are already in use but have not significantly reduced crime or addressed underlying societal issues.
There are significant concerns about the control and accessibility of surveillance data, which would be managed by Oracle and its AI systems.
