What behaviors of Larry Ellison is it going to help change? Hoarding wealth to the detriment of society? Attacking the tech sector with their army of lawyers? AI monitoring billionaires sounds strange, but I'm willing to see how it goes.

Does he realize that we've had AI surveillance systems for years?

Just look at my record of being locked out of my own bank account.

False positives and nothing working became the norm like 10 years ago thanks to putting these dumb AI systems in charge of IPS and "anti-fraud" systems. This is what happens when you put AI in charge of surveillance. Its like that scene from idiocracy when the computer gives him the name "Not Sure" because its a computer.

People can rise up at any time and start destroying the machines that guard them.

It's not bad enough yet but at some point, people won't accept it anymore. Probably when they have almost nothing left to fight for.

I would suggest we give him the 3,000 acres of Lana'i he doesn't own, so the entire island belongs to him, then strand him there forever.

How about instead of that, we give the entirety of Lana'i to Native Hawaiians via Hawaiian Home Lands and boot Larry Ellison out into the ocean on a raft or something.

How does this square with the whole libertarian bend?

The golden rule: "He who has the gold makes the rules."

He doesn't have to square it because consistency is for poor people.
