    A deeper investigation found they are manufactured by the same company that produces McDonald’s ice-cream machines.

    “border authorities and their supporters in Congress are continuing to promote unproven, AI-driven technologies as the latest remedy for years of failures, including the ones voiced in the memo obtained by NBC News. These systems involve cameras controlled by algorithms that automatically identify and track objects or people of interest. But in an age when algorithmic errors and bias are being identified nearly everyday in every sector including law enforcement, it is unclear how this technology has earned the trust of the government.”

    It’s easy to conclude that the intent here was always to establish an automated general threat of harm - to all poor people in sight of these towers.
