British Police Develop 'Psycho-Pass' AI to Predict Crimes Before They Happen

(12-18-2018, 05:02 AM)-Isotope Wrote: The Psycho-Pass is based on a society where everyone’s emotional and psychological state is carefully measured by a system, which then determines their aptitudes and mental health. It is managed by a sibyl system.
The Sibyl System represents a branch of ethical philosophy known as Utilitarianism, which states that an action is ethically correct if it causes more good for society than bad. For example, the Sibyl System judges whether each person is likely to commit a crime, and uses that assessment to decide whether they are safe to leave in society; if not, they are removed for therapy or executed by special officers called Enforcers who use a weapon called Dominator to execute the can-be criminals.

A person’s psycho-pass is a record of their mental state, including their Hue, which is a measure of their current stress level, and their Crime Coefficient, a measure of their likelihood of committing a crime. People regularly receive “cymatic scans” by scanners placed in buildings and on the streets, which is then processed by the Sibyl System to update their psycho-pass. When a cloudy hue is detected, the enforcers and police are dispatched to detain the individual and take them to therapy. The Sibyl System is also used to judge people’s work proficiencies, effectively determining which careers they can pursue.

A similar system has already been enforced in China.
It is based on a point system called sesame credits which is monitored and regulated by a deep learning AI system.
The system is an exact copy of Psycho-pass (minus the Dominator). If your scores fall below a margin then you can be denied some basic fundamental rights and can even be trialed or evicted without any warrant.
Just a small teaser of its effects:

Code:

When facial recognition cameras were installed at a century-old high school here in eastern China, students got in and out of campus, picked up lunch, borrowed books and even bought drinks from a vending machine just by peering into the cameras. No more worrying about forgetting to carry your ID ca rd. But last March, the cameras appeared in some classrooms — and they did a lot more than just identify students and take attendance. Using the latest artificial intelligence software, the devices tracked students’ behavior and read their facial expressions, grouping each face into one of seven emotions: anger, fear, disgust, surprise, happiness, sadness and what was labeled as neutral. Here, the surveillance cameras took the data on individual facial expressions and used that information to create a running “score” on each student and class. If a score reached a predetermined point, the system triggered an alert. Teachers were expected to take action: to talk to a student perceived to be disengaged, for example, or overly moody. Some students went so far as to figure out how to game the system by feigning what the cameras’ designers wanted to see. “If you feel angry, you need to control yourself,” said Zhu Juntao, 17, using his two forefingers to press up the ends of his mouth, as if smiling.

They have actually did it. It's in enforcement there for a couple of years.

Yes, it uses machine learning to predict psychological stability of its citizens.
