Yay, concentration camps. My list of countries to live in is consistently getting smaller.
Is this turning into minority report in real life?
Welcome to our over-securitized late stage capitalist hellscape. All so companies can push out these bogus ‘tools’ and eat more of the state budget and profit like the crony capitalists they are. Not the first time. First as a tragedy, second as a farce.
What can go wrong?
Right? No way this could possibly backfire. Unless, of course, that’s the intended outcome.
Major black mirror vibes
We are living the plot from PsychoPass
I shit you not, my mom literally just was talking about that anime and joking about it with me last night. I think it’s because we were talking about police anime.
Like if I knew Lemmy didn’t have an algorithm, I’d think this shit was targeted.
I give it two seconds to turn into racism machine
I watch enough true crime to know that anyone is capable of murder
Data scientist here; there simply are not enough murders to model this, so they will need to use proxies for “likely” murderers (like any sort of violent crime). That means the model will very strongly target people who are over-policed (minorities) and those more likely to actually get caught and charged for things, and thus be in the training data set (poor people). It will also fail spectacularly for this purpose because even a highly accurate model will produce almost 100% false positives -again, because actual murders are so vanishingly rare. The math just doesn’t work.
Healthcare CEOs at the top of the list.
if the model is working correctly it indeed must point us towards billionaires
We are begging CEOs to please read the rest of the novel.
I hope many of their politicians get placed high on the list.
They should make three, and they all have to agree, but if only one disagrees then maybe they can ignore it, call it the “minority account” or something like that.
Sounds like a great idea for a film. I have the feeling it would become an instant cult classic.
The “less report”. Blamo.
You’re not going to believe this, but Tom Cruise… has identified you as an agent of Xenu.
So are they going to enforce ICC warrants?
