Gene DembyHOST
When we come back...
Matthew GuarigliaGUEST
Your Ring camera is one or two permissions away from allowing police to request and access the footage a- as if your front door camera is part of the surveillance network.
Gene DembyHOST
Stay with us, y'all.

[gentle music] This week on Consider This, the researcher who just resigned from Anthropic, why he believes AI is a threat to humanity.
Gene DembyHOST
Mm-hmm.
Gene DembyHOST
So we've been talking about Flock and Axon and those kind of companies that have, like, specific business relationships with police departments.
Gene DembyHOST
And you mentioned this before, but, like, what about the Amazon Ring of it all? Like, this is how we members of the public surveil each other.
Gene DembyHOST
Like, when my wife and I moved into our house, there was a Ring camera already installed on the property that we deactivated, of course.
Jason KnickHOST
Which people still end up taking the whole thing of candy while a camera is blinking right at them This is wild.
Graham CouchHOST
There are, it's amazing how many things people get away with now, though, that aren't caught on Ring doorbells.
Graham CouchHOST
Like, I would think almost every crime should be caught now on a Ring doorbell.
Graham CouchHOST
Like, there's-
Jason KnickHOST
That's why you're pro-Flock cameras.

Graham CouchHOST
I thought he was potentially on track to be their best lineman before he got hurt, so yeah, you know, what does that fully healthy look like? Is he completely recovered? Is he, is, is his ceiling different? Um, obviously the line around him is different.
Graham CouchHOST
I, I, I would suspect he'll be a big part of things.
Jason KnickHOST
Scott, "Will Cam Edwards, if healthy, maintain his pace to be modern day, a modern-day version of 2008 Javon Ringer, who had 78% of the team's carries?"
Graham CouchHOST
They're...

Kristen ZimanHOST
Yeah.
Kristen ZimanHOST
If there's a Ring camera, my ass is coming out.
Kristen ZimanHOST
That's just kind of a thing.
Kristen ZimanHOST
So, uh, as long as we don't have, uh, photo evidence of that is why-
9 MINS LATER
Kristen ZimanHOST
And so it took a lot to ask for help, and so I think that's a lesson there in connection.
Kristen ZimanHOST
And it started a friendship from there that, um, you know, has, has transcended and-
Sylvia MoirHOST
Where I get to see your ass on the Ring camera.
Kristen ZimanHOST
The, where I, where I show you my ass on the Ring camera.
IndieHOST
Critics argue that Axon's ecosystem creates an unconstitutional surveillance grid by aggregating data without strict retention limits of written or written governance policies.
IndieHOST
The integration of private home cameras via Ring partnerships infuses core.
IndieHOST
Remember how everybody freaked out about Ring partnering with Flock? Well, they just did it and partnered with Axon instead.
IndieHOST
Okay, so Ring's been integrated into police networks, which allows for warrantless access to residential footage.
IndieHOST
I don't see a problem there, do you? If you have a Ring camera, disable it.
IndieHOST
Take it the fuck out and put a regular doorbell back in.
IndieHOST
Axon's aggressive lobbying and monopolistic market position have drawn scrutiny from civil liberties advocates and government bodies.
Jose SanchezHOST
I know that that's mostly an American holiday, but there was something kind of like a bigger story that came out of it.
Jose SanchezHOST
from Amazon and their Ring cameras.
Jose SanchezHOST
And there was like this...
Jose SanchezHOST
So I didn't watch it, but I guess Amazon... and Ring played this commercial about some of their new AI technology and they caught so much backlash because people started to question like is any of my footage private like they're just handing all of my stuff over to law enforcement with no warrants no due process and so people just started removing all of their Ring equipment and looking into alternatives I has there been something like that in the uk where people are like concerned about like privacy i know like that's kind of like a big thing here in the united states i don't know if it's prevalent in other countries where they're just concerned about like i don't want all of my information going to the police without them having warrants or or whatever
Fiona BrookmanGUEST
no there have been issues here um there was somebody who successfully took south wales police actually which is the area that i live in um he challenged the facial recognition that was being used on kind of police vehicles in the city centre in Cardiff.
Fiona BrookmanGUEST
He said that was an affront to his civil liberties, that he shouldn't be having his face kind of, his, you know, images taken of him whilst he's just out kind of in the city getting on with his life.
Cara BaskinHOST
A village, collective, collaborative.
Cara BaskinHOST
Can you feel a theme building here? Jamie Siminoff, Babson alum and founder of Ring, one of the most successful entrepreneurial stories of our generation, reminded us that the journey isn't always pretty and that self-awareness might be the most underrated entrepreneurial skill of all.
Jamie SiminoffSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
My best investments are definitely in people, not in businesses.
Cara BaskinHOST
What do you look for?

Co-founder Harry Melsop is with us live this morning from Queenstown.
Ryan BridgeHOST
Hey Harry, how are you?
Harry MelsopGUEST
No one
Ryan BridgeHOST
wants to get kicked in the nuts.
Ryan BridgeHOST
Hey, what about Amazon and the Ring cameras? What's going on there?
Harry MelsopGUEST
Yeah, so, you know, I think it's a type of system that people maybe don't typically think about as robotics or sort of physical AI.
