    Essentially this AI is a racist markov chain that can be simplified:

    Skin colour = dark -> something in his hand = true -> result = A WEAPON A WEAPON!!!

    It is doing good work replacing the police’s job of racially profiling minorities. Very efficient.

      It wasn’t even in his hand.

      The crumpled Doritos bag in his pocket had been mistaken for a gun.

      This was a good kid who crumbled up the bag and stuck it in his pocket instead of littering, and he gets traumatized by a bunch of cops for it. Hell, he could have lost his life if an acorn had fallen at the wrong moment.

        Ah okay.

        In protest, everyone in that school should walk around with rulers, wrappers, bottles and other things sticking out of their pockets to trigger the system.

          For fucks sake in 2002 I and all the other FFA kids went to school with knives and/or multitools clipped to our belts.
