AI trained on prison calls now monitors inmates in real-time. Except inmates paid for the calls that trained the model, and now pay higher fees to fund the AI surveillance of their own conversations.

One exec described inmate communications as 'an entire treasure trove [of data]' for detecting when 'crimes are being thought about.' THOUGHT ABOUT. That, uh, does not bode well.

This is what happens when we build technology systems without centering human dignity.
