Oh yes, "predictive policing". I guess somebody haven't read Phillip K. Dick's The Minority Report, or thought it was an implementation guide rather than a cautionary tale.

1984 Here we come. The Thoughtpolice have arrived.

Inspector Inigo Montoya will likely find no shortage of six-fingered men, I suspect. The sooner this AI bubble bursts, the better.

This will be fine. After all, a government that understands technology so well it implemented the genius tech regulations in the OSA coupled with a Police force with officers so intelligent they never get the law wrong or have a growing reputation for violence against women can easily be trusted to not take the UK down a dystopian path where the non-white and/or poor and/or disabled will be targetted simply by living in an area where a crime once happened.

This sounds like fairly normal machine learning models, not "advanced AI".

General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
