Affordable scalable AI will make it possible to embed surveillance into every aspect of life where a person has to interact with the outside world to purchase products or services, obtain medical care, socialize, etc.

It's well known that Google devices can/will already send telemetry such as audio and location data. Putting your sleeping device on "Airplane" mode only delays transmission. Researchers have found that when you take an Android phone off of Airplane mode, it will mass send collected data while it was off the grid.

The ambient audio from phones is probably already mass analyzed for trigger words and sentences. AI will make it straightforward to scan all conversations for "pre crime".

I suspect that the bottom line of AI is that an individual won't have rights any longer for any practical purpose. You'll have to conform and not say wrongthink continually.

I don't think this is hyperbole at all. The ideal use case for AI as far as a totalitarian government is concerned is to stomp out non orthodoxy. Because every single advance in technology to date has been used to enforce whatever law enforcement wants.
