AI also recently decided a bag of chips that a black kid had was a gun, and summoned a horde of cops on him.
an accident I doubt AI would make with a white kid, because AI gets all sorts of inherit biases from the data its fed.

AI is built on a reward system. Its sole reason for existence is to complete its task and get the reward points. It will create false information to do this. One AI that a lawyer “accidentally” used in court actually created its own 4-5 page court cases to use as citations to justify the case it was working on.
AI is a novelty and should NOT be in charge of any decision making or be admissible as evidence in any way.

This is the same reason police dogs shouldn’t be used.

Yep. Dogs have been used to manufacture probably cause for decades.
Only once have they ever been scientifically tested, and they failed… and shockingly, cops refused to participate in any future testings.

As the owner of a German shepherd who just REALLY wants to make friends and play with everyone she meets…it’s depressing how many people see a big cop dog and immediately walk away when she barks

I’ve been bit, my friends have been bit, and I’ve seen children get bit by dogs that fit the exact same description. I don’t trust any fucking dog. Keep it on leash and keep it away from me and my family. Thank you. - cat gang

Why is she barking? Correct that behaviour and I bet 80% of people would stop treating you and your dog like a threat. If a dog barks at me, I leave. It tells me the owner hasn’t spent the time training them and that the dog doesn’t want me there.

Because she’s 6 months old and still learning to socialize, so people immediately turning and speeding away does not help. If people could suspend their judgement of someone as a threat long enough to recognize a puppy and let her say hello, then it’s completely fine but thank you for the training tips.

Dog owner here. I don’t know if I buy the whole “don’t judge by breed” thing. Sure, training can become the dominant force, but dogs are literally wolves that were selectively bred based on temperament. And how would genes decide so much about a dog but not its temperament?
Anyway still sucks. I’d want to hang out with your dog. But I respect where people are coming from.

Oh, they should, but similarly to “AI” as a tool, with the whole responsibility for the tool being on the person using it.
Similar to screwdrivers, pencils and guns.

Rescue dogs and bomb dogs are cool, traffic stop K-9 units are an affront to civil rights.
