      I’m really confused here, what do you mean?

      I’m referring to two friends right next to each other, talking silly shit in person, like what’s the random phone microphone and associated AI think of the words it hears?

      We (me and my roommate) just got done joking about a crazy woman that wanted to have 6 babies with me and wanted to move to Canada 😂🤣

      I’m not asking about any AI chatbot, I’m asking what do the random phone microphones and associated AI systems think of random jokes it heard?

        OP is responding to your original question. If you’re asking if it safe to do it, then you are worried about the consequences of doing it and wonder if you should stop. That would mean that you are “obeying a rule before it exists”.

        As to your current comment, you should understand that current “AI” solutions do not think anything. If the current solutions were used for mass surveillance, then they would be used to classify your actions in some predefined way and whomever is using them will use this classification in some (possibly nefarious) unknown way

          Yo, you both make good points. Sorry I didn’t explain the joke/banter we were discussing.

          We (in person) were joking for around 10 minutes or so about a crazy woman that literally wanted to have 6 children with me and move to Canada.

          She’s crazy and was recently evicted, but we continue to joke about it. But it really makes me wonder, what if the microphones and AI shit around hear our silly banter and take it seriously, like thinking I’m about to move to Canada (I’m not).

          Long question short, does AI know the difference between serious words or jokes?

    Welcome back to the USSR.

    Four people are travelling by train, in the same compartment. They share a few drinks, and start talking trash about the party and the government. One of them decides to play a joke on the others: he finds the car’s conductor and asks them to bring four cups of tea to the compartment at exactly eight o’clock.

    Meanwhile, the others in the compartment continue to insult the authorities.

    “Aren’t you afraid to criticize the party so openly?”, asks the first guy.

    “Who will hear you here?”, responds one of the others.

    “All compartments in the train are bugged, you know”, says the guy.

    “Don’t bullshit us like that”

    “You don’t believe me? Okay then. Comrade colonel, please send four cups of tea to the fifth compartment”, speaks the guy loudly.

    A couple minutes later, the door opens, and the conductor brings in four cups of tea. The others in the compartment fall silent, and hurriedly go to sleep.

    In the morning, the guy wakes up and discovers himself to be the only one in the compartment. When the conductor comes around, he asks: “Where have the others gone? They were supposed to be travelling further than me.”

    “I don’t know about that”, responds the conductor, “But comrade colonel really liked your joke.”

    Depends where you are from. What are you saying that is so horrible that you need to be this paranoid?

    Imagine how many times NSA agents/spys in general have witnessed/recorded evidence of fathers raping their children and have done nothing about it.

    Unless you are a political enemy there is no immediate threat.

    If you want to speculate on social credit stuff in the background we can speculate that you were flag as being a potential candidate to work on epstien island because you have the appropriate sense of humor or something jeez dude what jokes about a women have you acting like the government is going to get ya?

    Yes, it’s safe.

    The microphones are generally not listening to and processing everything you say.

    You can turn off your own devices’ passive listening. (E.g., Siri, Google, Alexa…)

    If they do listen to what you say, they’re almost always not going to care beyond “How can we use this to sell you shit you don’t need?”.

    It would be too much effort for too little gain, even with AI, to try to “catch” anybody for your “satirical jokes and banter”. In the government’s eyes, you’re not as special as you feel you are.

    And even if they did, you’re unlikely to be charged for a crime unless you live in somewhere like North Korea, China, Iran, or maybe the UAE?

    Yes it is.

    If it’s not, that has to do with you becoming an explicit target of 3-lettter agencies beforehand. Look, it’s legally risky and expensive to collect data from people, evaluate it and draw conclusions. You can become a big enough target for those agencies to reason that it’s worth it, but you gotta work really hard to get there.

    In fact, the most likely thing for any given random person is either getting caught up in phishing attacks or getting chased by a PI at the mercy of family or a former partner that is holding grudges.

    What I’m saying is yes, there’s a tiny chance that it’s not safe but if it really was dangerous for you to speak, you would probably already know.

    Famously at Edward Snowden’s first interview the NSA was tapping him and he was chased around right up until they lost jurisdiction and so every TSA checkpoint became dangerous for him. But everyone who thinks they are just as endangered as Edward Snowden is most likely just paranoid.

    Probs listening/gathering data of your conversations. For jokes it might be helping to give AI context for humour. I always notice ChatGPT understanding black humour more, so mabs thats why?

    Would be weird to see a headline of “2 boys charged with offensive banter as phone secretly listens and calls police”
