10% false positives is an enormous rate given how Police like to ‘find’ evidence and ‘elicit’ confessions.
It isn't predicting individual crimes, just pattern recognition and extrapolation like how the weather is predicted.
"There are on average 4 shootings in November in this general area so there probably will be 4 again this year." is the kind of prediction that AI is making.
Predictions with hallucinations is exactly how an effective justice system works.
So they are using it to try and decide on deployment?
If that is all they're using it for I guess it isn't too bad. As long as it isn't accusing individuals of planning to commit a crime with a zero evidence.
It is probably going to be used to justify the disproportionate police attention paid to minority communities and to justify activities similar to stop and frisk.
No, it's bad, because ultimately it's not leading anywhere, such tools can't be used by unqualified people not understanding how they work (not many qualified people do too, my teamlead at work, for example, is enthusiastic and just doesn't seem to hear arguments against, at least those I can make with my ADHD, that is, avoiding detailed explanations to the bone).
If ultimately it's not applicable where people want to apply it, it shouldn't even be tested.
This is giving such applications credibility.
It's the slippery slope that some people think doesn't exist. Actually they exist everywhere.
lol .... if AI is wrong .... we'll make it right
That's in a punitive system. Used in a transformative/preventive manner (which it will not), this can actually save lives and help people in need
Yeah, yeah. This is nothing. This is just a Minor(ity) Report.
Yup. About as exciting as triplets in a hot tub.
But what if it was some kind of hot tub Time machine... Turns to look at camera
The butcher, the baker, the candlestick-maker... of course, they're triplets, it all fits!
Israel and China implement sophisticated algorithms to suppress Palestinians and Uyghurs with severe effectiveness. Don't take this tech lightly.
If it were my choice I'd have it banned. "90%" accuracy? So 10/100 predictions result in an innocent person getting surveiled for literally no reason? Absolutely the fuck not.
Idk about china but Israel carpet bombs apartment buildings. You don't need precision ai for that
Generative AI ≠ actual AI.
Yeah! Real AI is expert systems and fuzzy logic! Generative AI's capabilities and intelligence fail in comparison to Fuji Electric's advanced temperature control systems!
How do you figure?
Because language models aren't sentient?
Is that a requirement of AI?
Nobody but science fiction writers has ever said AI is sentient. You watch too many movies.
Do they have skull measurements in their dataset? It's predestined to reproduce and cement existing biases.
Hey now, phrenology is a well documented scientific field
I'm pretty sure currrent techBrocracy will implement it such:
if (isBlack)
{
willCrime = True;
}
I have seen it before, and I liked it. “Person of Interest” on CBS. Though in real life, I’m not a fan.
You are being watched.
There are too many Samaritans already but no one has made The Machine.
I mean I can also create situations where I can 100% predict crime, like an old school protection racket.
Hey could you just scan me before I continue putting effort in earning money?
I thought the hand thing was (mostly) a thing of the past.
I mean you can train ai to look for really early signs of multiple diseases. It can predict the future, sort of
