I know people aren’t fans of seeing X content on here, but this is too insane not to share… WTF is wrong with Europe?

“The dangers of A.I. are abstract for many people, but for me, they are very real.

In two weeks, I face years in prison because the government used an A.I. tool on a groupchat I was allegedly a member of and which was literally called "shitposting".

Their A.I. tool gave every message a 'toxicity score' and concluded most of the messages were toxic.

One of my alleged messages was "Some cultures are inferior, backwards cultures that still practice Female Genital Mutilation, for example". This message got a 100/100 toxicity score and 100/100 for sexism and 100/100 for racism. Yes, this was considered sexist by the A.I. (a punishable offence in Belgium)

Almost all of the messages the A.I. bot concluded to be 'toxic', are completely wrong. Every sentence that included "an African" was deemed racist, for example. Every sentence with "leftist tears" got 100/100 toxicity.

I (allegedly) quoted a black journalist who said something racist, but the A.I. bot does not understand this and attributed the quote to me, adding to the 'total toxicity score' that got me 1 year in jail and a 16.000 EUR fine.

There is no serious way to defend yourself against this, as the Public Prosecutor will use the 'Total Toxicity Score' as his 'evidence', instead of going over all the supposedly toxic quotes.

The Public Prosecutor's definition of 'shitposts' is also crazy: "Shitposts are deliberately insulting messages ment to provocate".

My appeal is next week.”

I'm Phil, and this is my story.

After studying history and embarking on a career in advertising, I ran away to join the circus. OK, not the circus (I can't do backflips). But I did leave the UK to travel the world and teach English.

Argentina, Mexico, and Asia opened my eyes to different people, attitudes and realities. I started to write - first a humorous travel blog, then articles and fiction. I've since published hundreds of stories and several books.

In addition to writing for clients, I began to coach writers online. One of those writers orange-pilled me, and I'm forever grateful. We still work together today🧡.

Since then, I've read a stack of #bitcoin books even taller than me (1.95m) and have gone deep into the rabbit hole of economics, money, and freedom tech.
