Are we sure it was just the bag of Doritos that the AI misclassified?
finally an article whose text is just as oniony
We are taking orders from machines? At whose behest?
The ai was actually a Blue dorito bag
Made me think of the beginning of the movie Brazil.
I faintly recall there was a news article about someone who was gunned down by cops mistaking a foil-wrapped sandwich for a gun.
Tortillas are as American as anything can be so it's normal that anti-American trump would flag them.
Its not trump that flags them but I wouldn't be surprised if its his support network of billionaire tech oligarchs
My post was a joke. In reality, identifying a bag of Doritos for a weapon sounds like the kind of mistake AI image recognition software can make. (and humans too - police have mistaken toys for actual weapons).
Is this ..... Harassment?
... Why did dexerto file this under "Entertainment"
Arguably it is hilariously stupid.
You guys don't understand, he was holding ninja stars! /s
A false positive is better then a false negative. The best would be to kill the gun culture so we don't have to have AI in school, making sure 16 year olds aren't carrying weapons (only nation where we have this stupid problem).
No. The police are well known for using violence against non-violent black people. Imagine what they could do if they believed a black person was armed. I would say that this kid got really lucky.
Besides the racism problem, many false positives will lead to people not taking the system seriously (see: the boy who cried wolf) and even if they take every positive seriously, it would be a huge waste of resources to frequently send a bunch of cops to do nothing (in best case scenario, in worst case it'll result in the death of an innocent person).
Yeah, I'm kinda surprised by the downvotes. I'd rather no guns but if I had to choose between the system missing one and spotting one incorrectly, I'm pretty sure I lean to the false positive.
Regardless of the gun problem, we don’t need to have AI in schools.
