We won't be living in a dystopia once they replace the police with AI robocops.
Cops that obey the rules and don't shoot random people or pets would be a huge step up for most of the US, so I don't see the problem.
Hallucinating AI. Or homelessness being interpreted as a crime, either through new legislation or by it being considered as trespassing.
I'm not sure how AI makes that any worse than today.
If anything, you can rely on the 1% to make sure the cops would be reliable.
more like don't shoot you if your bank balance is over a certain threshold.

There is one. Their estates hold trillions together. Masters are merely men, when the sun is down.
A wealth tax.
That would only happen if people thought the disparity in wealth should shrink instead of grow.
