Has anyone considered video recording streets around offices of OpenAI, Deepmind, Anthropic? Can use CCTV or drone. I’m assuming there are some areas where recording is legal.
Can map out employee social graphs, daily schedules and daily emotional states.
Did you mean to imply something similar to the pizza index?
The Pizza Index refers to the sudden, trackable increase of takeout food orders (not necessarily of pizza) made from government offices, particularly the Pentagon and the White House in the United States, before major international events unfold.
Government officials order food from nearby restaurants when they stay late at the office to monitor developing situations such as the possibility of war or coup, thereby signaling that they are expecting something big to happen. This index can be monitored through open resources such as Google Maps, which show when a business location is abnormally busy.
If so, I think it’s a decent idea, but your phrasing may have been a bit unfortunate—I originally read it as a proposal to stalk AI lab employees.
Update: I’ll be more specific. There’s a power buys you distance from the crime phenomena going on if you’re okay with using Google maps data acquired on about their restaurant takeout orders, but not okay asking the restaurant employee yourself or getting yourself hired at the restaurant.
Pizza index and stalking employees are both the same thing, it’s hard to do one without the other. If you choose to declare war against AI labs you also likely accept that their foot soldiers are collateral damage.
I agree that (non-violent) stalking of employees is still a more hostile technique than writing angry posts on an internet forum.
