It's marketing for the corporations whether you want it to be or not. Because they want you to believe that they've created a machine god instead of something powered by humans being hidden from view and being exploited to give the appearance of "intelligence" that doesn't exist.

Somehow, despite all the competition, SPVM remains the worst police force in Canada.
Shooting dozens of rounds of tear gas and using pepper spray and their batons, the SPVM violently pushed back more than a thousand people who showed up this afternoon to send a message to GardaWorld over their contracts with ICE at their offices and training center in Ville Saint-Laurent. (thread)
