Why do I keep getting the idea that someone, somewhere thinks that all this science fiction shit that was bad when it was in literature would be good if they brought it to reality?

Uncooperative humans being hunted by robots is good...how?

Start by telling me who gets to decide who's uncooperative, and what activities comprise a lack of cooperation, please.

Well..You right now would be a good example...too many questions..ZAP! Anything and anyone, inferior to robots, is uncooperative.

That technology is currently being implemented in public monitors (cameras). The technology is based in things such as microexpressions, how a person stands (ie monitor the knees), etc.

Before taking action, first the bot must make a decision. Same technology being used in public monitoring to identify terrorists or other criminal types.

Yup, 'bots will look for indicators of guilt.
So if you've never done anything to feel guilty for... you're fine!

Quote:
On arriving at Justice World the Justice Computer scans the crews' minds for signs of guilt and convicts Rimmer on 1,167 counts of second-degree murder, a consequence of his faulty drive-plate repair that killed the crew of the mining vessel Red Dwarf. Kryten proves to the Justice computer Judge that Rimmer's immense guilt stems from his own inflated sense of importance; a man as incompetent and insignificant as Rimmer, he argues, would never be given tasks that might put the whole crew in danger. Rimmer, although deeply offended, and despite objecting to his own defence on many occasions, is found not guilty.
(see Red Dwarf series 4 episode 3, Justice)
