I see a future in which algorithms are used to sort people based on criteria discrimination law was designed to eliminate. And then are used as defenses where found to be doing so. "It wasn't me. It was the computer system." I've seen that defense myself in a discrimination case. It was not successful, but it was a legitimate defense, and can be easily employed given the increasing automation of everything.
The caveat came after the parts of your post I was commenting on. I didn't realize that when you said "Jumping off..." you meant "The stuff above has nothing to do with the article I pretend to be commenting on."

Or, to put it differently, hence, the "huh?" that I started with.
