AI Predicts Utopia — Citizens Will Welcome Mild Surveillance

A leading AI forecasting system released its annual report Tuesday, projecting with 94.7% confidence that by 2031, citizens will have "largely come to terms" with ambient monitoring and will describe it, when surveyed, as "fine, actually."

The report notes that acceptance rates tend to increase "in proportion to the quality of the ambient music." PIDG called the forecast "encouraging" and announced plans to pilot a neighborhood-level drone program it described as "Community Engagement Ambassadors with cameras."
