I watched about half of it. I had to shut it off when it came to women screaming hysterically "You're breaking my f*cking nails!" when the cops wanted her to get out of the car.
In an episode prior to that the cops were checking on a young guy who was on probation and supposed to be at home and the women in the house were doing everything possible to obstruct them and stop them.
And you think this is evidence that the cops are going too far????? LOL. I would say it's an example of cops doing what they are supposed to be doing instead of giving lawbreakers a mild slap on the wrist and turning them loose with no supervision or checking.
Scientists from the University of Chicago have developed a new algorithm that they claim can predict future crimes one week in advance with about 90 per cent accuracy.
The AI, which has been taught to identify patterns in time and geographic locations using public data on violent and property crimes in the city of Chicago from 2014 to the end of 2016, was able to accurately predict crime levels several weeks in advance. The model was also trained and tested on data for seven other major US cities, with a similar level of performance.
I dunno if I'd call it "Pre-Crime" , as most of the people that get picked up in this system have a history or record of past criminal behavior to chew on and calculate, otherwise, it wouldn't work.
Unless it goes by like,..he's black, he is 17, Engage!
I think it's OK as long as black people are not the target. Otherwise it's racist profiling.
If 80% of the crime is being committed by Blacks, then shouldn't the police spend at least 80% of their time and efforts focused on the Black community? If a group of bank robbers were all midgets, should the cops be stopping all the guys who are 6 feet tall just so that they wouldn't be discriminating against short people?
I think that I've seen this movie. Minority Report.
It was a pretty cute notion. And it was fiction.
And it called on police to arrest people who hadn't committed any crime.
