It&#x27;s always been there. There is a surprisingly large population of people who take pride in their ability to eek out personal advantages with little &#x27;schemes&#x27; at the expensive of the public. Many of these people think they&#x27;re rebelling against a government that is too wasteful (which is ironic) or evil in various other ways. &quot;If the government is going to waste money, it should waste it on me!&quot; Or &quot;everyone does it!&quot;<p>Yet when the problem is corruption and lack of oversight, you can&#x27;t fix that for free, and more money can lead to more opportunities for corruption. Which is why I feel it&#x27;s so important to build AI&#x27;s that can detect and manage this stuff.
