Are robot police officers racist? Artificial intelligence predicts crime a WEEK in advance with 90 per cent accuracy – but can also perpetuate human bias, study shows
2022-07-03
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • AI can predict crime in US cities a week in advance with 90 per cent accuracy

  • It detects patterns in the geographic locations and time of reported crimes

  • There are concerns the algorithm could perpetuate current systemic biases

  • The researchers stress it should be used in tandem with other policing strategies

#6  Old problem.

If you concentrate police where crime is a lot of blacks will be arrested.

If you don't, a lot of blacks will be crime victims.

#5  Apparently, the AI has more than the half a brain of the Leftists.

Systemic biases aka the new Left term for reality

If you are unwilling to recognize the truth you will never solve the problem.

#1  I cannot see why if you have a large sample size with a history of a regular phenomenon this would be so hard to predict.
