Psycho Pass? I just have a vague memory of their AI god directing the main characters to murder civilians because they had gotten too emotional.
Wasn't the big reveal that it wasn't an AI, just a bunch of brains stitched together?
I'm not sure, I watched it over a decade ago.
I think the worm is eating your brain again.
As someone who rewatched it recently, I do not recall that at all.
I don't think I've watched it since it was new but isn't the whole premise an AI system that flags people for getting too emotional.
Sorta, there is an that determines the percentage chance of someone committing a crime based on a number of factors including material conditions and emotional state. I believe it also sets a severity level for the crime but I am not sure
"ai system"
(It is made of certain special humans who the system can't read and therefore subject to their bias)The entire premise was that people got flagged for being likely to commit crime. Part of the dystopian nature was that people who got heavily traumatised were recognised as being more likely to commit crime. But it really wasn't "they got too emotional".
