  • I mean that’s just not a realistic thing to believe. People aren’t actually unique or special.

    So at some point computational power will meet the right algorithm and suddenly we can model morons.

    Short sprint to predictive policing. And before anyone gets all bent out of shape, go ahead and ask a criminal defense attorney how many of their clients are ‘criminally stupid.’ Based on conversations I’ve had, I imagine the answer is ‘a fuck ton of them.’

    Of course that makes people feel weird so we probably won’t do it even when we can, but that’s not the same thing as ‘it’ll never be possible.’
