      The Welfare State Is Committing Suicide by Artificial Intelligence
      By Jacob Mchangama and Hin-Yan Liu from Foreign Policy
      Denmark is using algorithms to deliver benefits to citizens—and undermining its own democracy in the process.

      This reminds me a lot of #PreCrime in #MinorityReport (the movie version), just with algorithms deciding who is going to get arrested in advance of actually committing crimes, instead of #PreCogs. The idea of this kind of Cardassian Tribunal being accepted and used in a "democratic" country is deeply, *deeply* disturbing.
