precision and recall are like the major things that you measure when training an ai
This is a very Kansas headline
Anything but promoting homeschooling or arming teachers, amirite?
Did you ask school teachers if they want to be armed?
You want to help people so they don’t feel murder is their best choice in life, and if they do, you need to stop the threat. Having a camera go ‘someone might have a gun, I promise this isn’t the 1000’th false positive’ right as they start murdering people isn’t helpful.
This feels like when fire alarms go off at work. Literally, no one gives a shit. There are a few people who basically go “fuck yeah, I’m gonna go stand outside until someone collects me,” but most just continue with whatever it was they were doing. This is not the attitude you want emergency services having towards reports of active shooters.
