Hey, it’s just an AI-powered camera scanning your trash and saving the photos. What could go wrong?
And what about the elephant in the room where a lot of recycling operations are bunk and can’t actually recycle stuff? Another example of going after the little guy when most of the issue is with larger corporations.
That’s step one. Step two is charging extra for disposal of recyclable stuff. Not a bad use of ai. Save the planet by destroying it.
Step 3 is advertising. The AI has your address and sees what you're buying. This is going straight to marketers.
Step 4 is reporting to your health insurance how much junk you eat and other unsavories of your lifestyle, justifying rate increases.
Throws out old children’s doll. Ai hallucinates that it’s dead babies getting thrown into trash. Soon the religious nut jobs will start spreading more rumours about unholy dumpster abortions and how they should be allowed to track down these heathens. And a little more privacy and human dignity slips away.
All because some corporate shitheads who rather spend millions on Ai over paying some “pathetic human” who might need medical or days off.

Thankfully, I can’t imagine my town wanting to pay for this. They don’t even want to pay for parks or a library.
