Interesting.
Not if you saw Black Mirror's "Nosedive" episode. This is going to force people to be nice just for the sake of getting high social credit scores even even though deep down they already want to punch that person in the face. Either that, or you suffer consequence. And honestly, what exactly is the purpose of this anyway?
But really, isn’t this how adults are expected to act in civilized society anyways ? This is going to force people to be nice just for the sake of getting high social credit scores even even though deep down they already want to punch that person in the face. Either that, or you suffer consequence.
Yes, but do we really need this social credit system to force us to be "nice"? What this will do is suppress rage and anger, and suppressed rage and anger can lead to hate crime or something. The nation's situation is already bad as it is, are we really willing to risk that for this technology?
I don’t necessarily believe in this system, I just thought it was interesting how what you said can be applied to how humans behave without technology as well. In the actual world it causes problems too when people are ostracized for not following the group or living as they’re told they should. I just think it’s interesting that society is basically on this rotation of the same BS just with different technology.
The purpose is to give banks more power and control over the world in a way that social media does. Unfortunately, that may mean that certain individuals may have the privilege of seeing exactly what a person's score is. Usually utopian aspiring technology seems dystopian. This article seems like a scare piece to our type of freedom, but if you've worked hard to stay as afloat as you can throughout your life, it shouldn't be an issue. It just makes getting things like disability show up to people. Take it how you want.
This is just going to divide us even more. As if racism, sexism, and the division between the rich and the poor aren't a big problem already, they're taking a page out of a TV show, too. I get how this could be used to move us forward, but it could very well be our downfall, too.Unfortunately, that may mean that certain individuals may have the privilege of seeing exactly what a person's score is.

How could this technology be used for good?
