This is gross on multiple levels.

This appears to me to be intentional and ironic to make a point rather than in earnest.

I am interpreting this as a statement about snap judgements in an age where AI will increasingly play the role of a judge or assessor of humans.

Perhaps I’m wrong, but it seems too on-the-nose to be serious.

From the website. If it is in earnest then I’d be embarrassed to have shilled for it, because I agree that the idea is stupid and gross.

I really do think it's in earnest. I think the author is trying to justify its existence as "already a part of reality". I think it's quite despicable actually.
