If I were notable enough for a bio to be simple, I wouldn't need one. I'm not so I'm too complex to describe briefly. And, I'm only visiting this plane.
@Forbes We don't need AI to legally enforce the pay rates and social supports that would make that possible, and without legal enforcement, no amount of AI is going to make that happen.
@piliated@Leonajardinho Are they freeloaders, or are you a hoarder? After all, you just admitted you stole a job from someone else who may have needed it a hell of a lot more than you because you already had one.
Now, realize the second one should have been so unnecessary you never looked for it.
@PepperPep13522@GBC_Press Since 2007, but before October 7, 2023, Israel had bombed and/or invaded Gaza seven times, killing almost 4,000 Palestinians https://t.co/IohSjNh4nL
@DanMKervick I'm pretty sure people were actually saying things very close to that at the time. Annoying that people whoa re educated enough to know better consider historical atrocities and the idea of "Do Better" a challenge to commit better atrocities.
@peterdaou Purposely implies intent, and that gets into a lot of very fuzzy areas of human knowledge. I believe "AI" will become an existential threat long before we start having to ask those questions.
Angee has been battling a tough infection for almost a year, and her doctor now recommends a treatment that could finally bring her relief. The cost after insurance is still $2,000, which her retired dad and family can't cover alone. https://t.co/RNBQXOX7kv
They don't prevent crime, and have negligible effect on resolving crimes, but they can let the government know who you associate with.
"-Oakland’s camera network: 0.1% of incidents resulted in usable evidence (City Auditor report)."
🚨 THE DATA IS IN. CAMERAS DON’T STOP CRIME.
-LAPD internal report: cameras are “primarily reactive” and “do not prevent crime.”
-NYPD Inspector General: surveillance tech “does not demonstrate effectiveness” in reducing crime.
-Chicago’s camera expansion produced no statistically significant drop in crime citywide (Urban Institute).
-Baltimore’s CitiWatch program: no measurable impact on overall crime rates (Johns Hopkins study).
-Oakland’s camera network: 0.1% of incidents resulted in usable evidence (City Auditor report).
-Detroit’s Project Green Light: no correlation between camera presence and reduced crime or increased arrests (University of Michigan study).
-Sacramento County: ALPR costs increased 300% over five years while clearance rates stayed near zero (Grand Jury).
-SFPD audit found no measurable impact on crime reduction from citywide camera networks.
-Seattle halted its mesh‑network camera program after an audit showed no demonstrated public‑safety benefit.
-St. Louis study of surveillance zones showed no reduction in violent crime and no increase in arrests.
-San Diego Smart Streetlights audit: police used the cameras heavily, but crime trends did not change, and arrest rates did not improve.
-New Orleans independent evaluation of the Real‑Time Crime Center found no correlation between camera deployment and reduced violent crime.
These are only a few examples...
Every major independent study says the same thing: Cameras don’t stop crime.
They just record it and expand surveillance.
@Zeronelite Anyone who thinks it's a good idea to live in the US right now isn't paying attention, is complicit, or is looking to enjoy the chaos from a good seat.
@Sadatay_Allday@briebriejoy They were issued to officers in Omaha public schools first. The issue wasn't getting any traction until they got associated with ICE so they were likely to get away with using them on kids.
