Good for the EU I guess?
I was talking about it in the US, where the article is focused.
I'm arguing against the technology. I believe that the decision to make an arrest should fall to a human being and that individual should be allowed to override a bad call by the shit being billed as AI.
There's a real possibility that law enforcement agencies may try to foist responsibility for decisions onto software and require officers to abide by the recommendations of said software. That would be a huge mistake.
In terms of legal precedent this may be a good thing in the long run.
The software billed as "AI" these days is half baked. If one or more law enforcement agencies point to the new piece of software the city deployed as their probable cause to make an arrest it won't take long for that to get challenged in court.
This sets the stage for the legality of the software to be challenged now (in half baked form) and to set a legal standard demanding high accuracy and/or human assessment when making an arrest.
Not entirely useless. "Assaulted with thing that could kill or maim under the circumstances at that time" is pretty relevant, even if it is super broad.
Spitting on someone Is assault. If I was on trial for spitting on someone I'd hate to get lumped together with the guy who caved someone's head in with a lead pipe.
Don't worry, Lemmy is just home to a disproportionate number of whack jobs.
Bullshit.
I'm a parent. The first time my kid catches flak for not having a smart phone he's going to say exactly what we practiced, "my parents are crazy, they won't let me have one. It's so stupid, I hate them".
The other kids will find something else to pick on even if every kid has a phone. Period. Children are monsters. It's not worth letting your kid's brain rot and have them try to off themselves when they're a teenager because they never had a chance at being well adjusted just to avoid them getting bullied about phones in particular.
Welp, 50/50 on people getting the joke. The first two times somebody made the same comment were meh/okay.
Conversely why do I need to pay to read the opinion section?

No, we shouldn't wait.
We will, but we shouldn't.

I'm actively trying to find a non-Reddit content aggregator, then I'm getting the hell away from this freak show.
Jesus Christ that's a deep cut reference.
