Prisons’ New AI: Big Brother’s Nastier Cousin
In a move straight out of Black Mirror’s deleted scenes, jails are now adopting opaque AI tech for data collection and surveillance — so secretive critics sound the alarm about privacy bombs and algorithm bias spreading behind bars. No big corporate names or price tags drop yet, but if Big Brother ever wanted a shady internship, prison AI is it. Skeptics worry this tech’s bias isn’t just a glitch but a full-blown feature making inmates the unwitting test subjects of unjust high-tech paranoia. Forget rehabilitation; here come automated privacy violations and mystery data hoarding that not even the guards fully understand.

Congratulations prisons, you’ve officially upgraded from bars to data bars, crushing privacy with a side of bias — because nothing screams justice like being surveilled by an algorithm that’s as transparent as a brick wall.
So prisons want to track inmates with AI so opaque even Sherlock would give up while privacy violations take center stage. Next up: Alexa sentenced for eavesdropping.
When you combine incarceration with mysterious AI data gobbling, it’s like handing Pinky and the Brain the keys to the justice system. Spoiler: Brain’s bias is winning.
