Kroger just rolled out surge pricing
0:02
using facial recognition technology this
0:04
means that Kroger has the ability to
0:07
change the prices of their products
0:09
depending on the image of the person
0:11
buying them not to mention that most
0:12
corporations already own a lot of our
0:15
data this means that depending on the
0:17
image of the person buying the product
0:19
they could access our information and
0:21
dictate that price can also use our
0:23
image to determine how often we buy
0:26
certain products and increase the price
0:28
of that product could lead to to
0:30
discriminatory practices using AI as a
0:33
scapegoat to charge people of different
0:35
races different socioeconomic status uh
0:38
different family sizes and different
0:40
dietary restrictions different prices
0:42
for the same products that they are
0:44
buying and this is the result of an
0:46
economic system that cannot sustain
0:47
itself capitalism is a pursuit of profit
0:51
uh by any means necessary in a finite um
0:54
world even if corporations attain new
0:56
technology to make their operations more
0:58
efficient they will always pursue
1:01
extracting more Capital out of consumers
