NYC police have spent millions on a tech company that claims it can use AI to monitor social media and predict future criminals::The New York Police Department paid Voyager Labs more than $8 million in 2018. The company says it uses AI to analyze criminal behavior online.
Reference to Tom cruise movie or other dystopia cyberpunk movie goes here
Ooh, ooh. I’ll play.
Minority Report
Where are all the holo screens I was promised?
Are we all going to have to remove our eyes now? Because I’ve got shit to do.
Police departments have a long history of wasting shitloads of money on stuff that doesn’t work, like voice stress analysis.
This is absolutely the best time to start a AI business.
Go ahead. Sell it to morons. Make that paper.
If they get even more excited, say blockchain and see if they bite. And if they do… you know you got yourself a nice payday.
Well with marjuana becoming legal in more and more places the police need a new way to generate probable cause on demand.
Suckers.
It also kidnapped triplets and uses they’re precognitive capabilities to solve pre-crimes.
Do people in NYC think the NYPD is weirdly bloated? I don’t live there but, obviously, I get exposed to NYC’s local news whether I want it or not and the NYPD just seems unaccountable and way more involved in politics and graft than other cities’ police departments.
Absolutely unaccountable. Is that different where you are?
Checking in from a state in the south. Naw it is the same. Just fewer people snooping around asking questions. My area was big on Live PD and part of the downfall of the show.
It does seem different where I live (NOLA) but we have a whole different situation here w/r/t policing in terms of staffing and budgets and even demographics/culture. They’re also operating under a consent decree so apparently not that unaccountable.
What is baffling to me is that the people of NYC made a police captain their mayor.
Are we at psycho pass levels yet?
Mmm let me see . Nope. Still white
The moment you realise America has become the worlds Florida(man).
Ah, I see we’re creating the Torment Nexus once again.

Just abandon social media, I cannot think of a single positive thing that could possibly come close to outweighing the incredible harm it can cause us, collectively and individually
They can’t. We’ve already become a society that rewards narcissism.
Yet you’re still here…
Likely not for long. I’m sure I’ll be banned from this instance within 90 days lol
My point remains. You’re advising people to leave social media voluntarily while not doing so yourself.
I mean, that doesn’t make the point any less of a good one.
I tell my kids not to use drugs or drink all the time. Guess what I do?
I will continue to watch wheres981 swim through traffic as the NYC police fail to catch him for the 999999nth time lol.
