Guilty until proven innocent.
It’s how the police view you anyway.
Pretty easy to prove you didn’t commit a crime that hasn’t happened, no?
Yes just tell the pig that you did not do it and he will release you
Data scientist here; there simply are not enough murders to model this, so they will need to use proxies for “likely” murderers (like any sort of violent crime). That means the model will very strongly target people who are over-policed (minorities) and those more likely to actually get caught and charged for things, and thus be in the training data set (poor people). It will also fail spectacularly for this purpose because even a highly accurate model will produce almost 100% false positives -again, because actual murders are so vanishingly rare. The math just doesn’t work.
I give it two seconds to turn into racism machine

Fuck around, find out, double down
They should make three, and they all have to agree, but if only one disagrees then maybe they can ignore it, call it the “minority account” or something like that.
The “less report”. Blamo.
Sounds like a great idea for a film. I have the feeling it would become an instant cult classic.
You’re not going to believe this, but Tom Cruise… has identified you as an agent of Xenu.
What can go wrong?
Right? No way this could possibly backfire. Unless, of course, that’s the intended outcome.
It’s typical of the neolib Labour party.
They’ve recently reintroduced legislation for digital IDs, just as they did the previous time they were in govt (prior to 2010).
We also have police stepping up unregulated use of facial reignition camera on the streets
They are obsessed with authoritarianism.
Will the British cabinet be automatically included on the list?
Welcome to our over-securitized late stage capitalist hellscape. All so companies can push out these bogus ‘tools’ and eat more of the state budget and profit like the crony capitalists they are. Not the first time. First as a tragedy, second as a farce.
So are they going to enforce ICC warrants?
We are begging CEOs to please read the rest of the novel.
