And that’s basically it!
bring the strangest objects you can find into public spaces.
It's crazy how LLM's and AI have arrived, and immediately started depriving us of dignity, autonomy, and financial independence... And nobody is doing shit about it.
The largest reason for this is that Donald Trump and the GOP are in power. They've actually been eroding what little safeguards had been erected.
We are all going to suffer while rich assholes destroy this world. All of us except the very, very top.
If it was Skittles he'd be dead
No one ever says "sorry" or apologise for stuff like this. Guess its an admitance of guilt or wrongdoing and means you are liable. This way they can fight the court system... Or rather not since the parents probably can't afford a civil claim.
Fuck this litigious age we live in.
SIR, WE CAUGHT HIM RED HANDED
Made me think of the beginning of the movie Brazil.
Dangerously cheesy
That joke was dangerously cheesy.... +1
This is a Risk we MUST Take to PROTECT our Second Amendment!
-Republicans who Support Trump's ELIMINATION of the Right To Protest, Right To Speech, Two Term Limit, . . .
They’re also openly looking to create gun registry’s and strip gun rights from certain populations like trans people
We are taking orders from machines? At whose behest?
The ai was actually a Blue dorito bag
Omnilert later admitted the incident was a “false positive” but claimed the system “functioned as intended,”
“We understand how upsetting this was for the individual that was searched as well as the other students who witnessed the incident,” the principal wrote. “Our counselors will provide direct support to the students who were involved.”
Wonderful non-answer showing zero remorse. Good to know that the students at Kenwood High School in Baltimore should absolutely not go to school, unless they want to be another statistic of armed officers shooting kids. The school is outright declaring they'd do it again like The Punisher throwing a fit in court.
I faintly recall there was a news article about someone who was gunned down by cops mistaking a foil-wrapped sandwich for a gun.
AI detection system detects black person.
WONTFIX: Working as intended.
You guys don't understand, he was holding ninja stars! /s
This could have been prevented if armed 'protection' drones had been installed at the school. The cops could have just stayed in the donut shop while the drones swarmed the student.
Drop the weapon!
Now correctly identifies the dropped doritos bag. Drop the weapon!
Cops not thinking and reliant on system to judge is how we get to psycho pass timeline
At least Sibyl System was not AI slop. I'll take that over GPT-5 any day.
Could've been killed :( (Since they had guns drawn out)
They are awefully brave when there is no active shooting
Doritos, This much flavor should be illegal.
You're welcome lays, I'll take $200k for the idea.
In 2021, writer and game designer Alex Blechman inadvertently created a meme:
Sci-Fi Author: "In my book I invented the Torment Nexus as a cautionary tale."
Tech Company: "At long last, we have created the Torment Nexus from classic sci-fi novel Don't Create The Torment Nexus!"
AI is a big component of the new and improved Torment Nexus which is coming along nicely.
Appreciate the source
I should be shocked that eight cops looked at a picture of a black kid holding a bag of doritos in his hand and agreed that it was a gun. why am I not shocked?
I’m not convinced they looked at anything. The AI sounded the alert and they peeled rubber.
Shows the importance of having a human in the loop.
And since the police vetted the image properly they shouldn't be afraid of publishing it, right?
