In a bid to quell the unrest well the governor of minnesota has tried to dampen the protest saying he understands why the anger comes from we dont just right near the top on Educational Attainment we rank near the top on personal incomes on homeownership on life expectancies things that make this and one that came out a while back we we rank 2nd in a survey of the 50 states 2nd in happiness behind hawaii but if you take a deeper look at peel it back which this week its peeled back all of those statistics are true if youre white if youre not we rank near the bottom. And what this week is showing all of us is those 2 things cant operate at the same place well police have been criticized for their response in some cities including in new york where a Police Vehicle was seen in a video ramming protesters behind a barricades footage shared online shows demonstrators blocking the path of 2 cars in the streets before one lurched forward into the crowds new York Police Say 345 people were arrested off 33. 00 officers were injured and 27. 00 Police Vehicles damaged new york mayor bill de blasio says a full investigation will take place that is not the way things are supposed to be there will be a full investigation into discipline as necessary there will be but do not present only one side of the picture i looked at those videos i saw people converging on the Police Vehicle i saw people throwing things at the Police Vehicle that is not peaceful protests so lets not kid ourselves if you or anyone else was inside that Police Vehicle surrounded by people you would have had a really tough decision to make you cant stay there you cant get out of the vehicle you have to get yourself and the vehicle out of the situation safely for all brazil has recorded a new record of more than 33000 corona virus infections in one day its now registered half a 1000000 confirmed cases of corona virus and hasnt yet hits its predicted peak more than 28800 people have died there giving it the worlds 4th highest death toll after the u.

And finally another 1st from space. We have banking from space x. Demo to mission entering the International Space station 2 nasa astronauts have arrived in the International Space station after the 1st trip on a private rocket doug hurley and bob behnken were slightly ahead of schedule when they arrived in the dragon capsule which blasted off from florida atop a space x. Rocket on saturday creating them on the i assessed our 2 russian cosmonauts and an american who have been in orbit since april and the astronaut bob behnken said it had been a rough ride we were surprised a little bit at how smooth things were off the pad the Space Shuttle is a pretty rough ride heading into orbit with the solid rocket boosters and our expectation was as we continued with the flight into 2nd stage that things would basically get a lot smoother than the Space Shuttle did but dragon was huff and puff and all the way into orbit and we were definitely driving or riding a dragon all the way in so it was not quite the same ride the smoother ride as the Space Shuttle was those are the headlines on aljazeera to stay with us precrime is coming up next. And the term precrime comes from this movie a minority report in which a prediction is being made about something any individual has not yet done but is going to do and a preemptive arrest is made of someone before theyve performed an act. If you would have asked me 37 years ago if we would have gunshot detection or video cameras in neighborhoods or be able to predict where crimes occurred i would have said youre crazy. Claiming to us and future of the future is already in the present right now its the securitize ations of fossil sizes. I have no idea what the next 5 or 10 years is going to be into Law Enforcement terms of technology advancement. Just look in a world weve come so far its going to be mind boggling. Can we predict an actual crime. And before it occurred. Our strategic subject list was called the s. S. L. Is a system that we worked with a professor from the Illinois Institute of technology an academic partner here in chicago to be able to assess and analyze those people that are at the greatest risk of being a party to violence this system is able to prioritize and tell us those individuals that we really have to focus on the work with to try to prevent that violence when you have so many different datasets or you have so many cameras watch which ones do we watch social media right so many Different Social Media communications out there how do you know what the concentrate on thats what are predictive aspect towards is for teaching subjects list thats what i thought. When i heard of this story for the 1st time i thought now its finally happening hollywood has eventually merged with real Life Software that predicts where and when the next crime occurs police that arrive at the crime scene before the perpetrator computers that generate lists with tomorrows murderers. Precrime they call it. A friend writes to me theres something foreign lumen on the horizon and we can only guess that a question a press entirely one. They experimented with a with it a little bit in 20122013 is really when it took off they came the Police Department came up with. More than 400 names of people who fit that bill. Individuals who are most likely to be prone to violence and either as a victim or perpetrator each of the 22 Police Districts came up with 20 names and they were chosen i dont know the science of it but it was all through mathematical algorithms basically and it didnt have anything to do so much with them being hardened criminals as much as it had to do with who are they arrested with. Mr makes no difference ties im commander west and im with the 15th just as common pleas department may we come and. Take Robert Mcdaniel for example he was not a hardened criminal he had been arrested for many minor offenses like gambling shooting dice or smoking marijuana minor offenses but the people who he was arrested with during those. Crimes some of them or at least one of them was a victim of violence so the logic was that while robber belongs on the list because he has a relationship with somebody. Whos been a victim of violence because hes been arrested with that person before. And employed. A school drop that it was either both get work or see a drugs in the street and sell in june 1 from our child but myself i get my ged that is where and in a misdemeanor on the m i z the. Star given falling home started. Having Police Officers walk up on me rattled on the salmon a government aim where i have been and like just things like that there. I hand miss alpha so wes and a social worker i cant remember his name but they had stopped in my home they stopped at my house in some pain and told me that i was put through some type of test this and i was. Supposed to be a ls going to shoot somebody or give. Dad i was put on a he theres a 500 people as a guard mr mcdaniel as part of our violently dungeon strategy i someone has generated a list of potential criminals actors and that. We are here today to inform you in effect that our computers have placed you on the hit list of the Police Department now since should you decide to continue to engage in criminal activity you know were going to charge you and we will prosecute you to the fullest extent of the law. I guess we was associated or carefree as this was to be and a straight out as an aerial go but weve put through a test and we both came out the most top the like telephone advantage people ask out now yet again i ask you how can i be dangerous for smoking leadership. Who does this or. The timeline shows all the criminal activity that their persons associate with if you see on the bottom those are all interactions hes had with the police either as an arrest is a contact as a victim and with it so you know who we hangs with you know where hes been everything to do with him that weve documented through Police Interaction scroll down police were 1st got that this shows this is what theyll compile and put together and get back out into the field within 15 minutes so if this person is the victim of a shooting or of Violent Crime theyll pull of their its got their criminal history. Thats associate so everything you saw before was all the criminal history involved with that individual so theres probably maybe about 2530 arrests that you saw on that saw subject dissociates people that theyre documented is having an affiliation with. Thats again a pretty comprehensive list. We can actually do even like a link analysis to be able to show how that network anoraks. The idea that you could essentially connect all of the data streams that government collects in different ways everything from you know your arrest records to your contacts to your foreclosures to your Mental Health records to your social benefits and put them in a particular computer database and then be able to do blank analysis where you connect a phone number from all the different sources and go out you know several links and be able to see the world is something you would never imagine that is technologically possible now. Lets summarize. Firstly they are quite serious about fighting crime with algorithms. Secondly Robert Mcdaniel is on the wrong side of the algorithm. Thirdly apart from its developers nobody knows how the algorithm behind the heat list works fourthly in 2016 statistically 2. 0876 people are killed every day in chicago. I think good. Place and you know. The reason is whats on these cuts whether its. Q and they. Came here as you dont know what else they pull for the next. Dont pull the neck to see if. Soon if the consumers. They have like a ranking system which shows how many times more likely are they than the general population to be prone to violence so all robert had a rating of 215. 00 which meant hes 215. 00 times more likely to be prone to violence but robber wasnt i mean that paled in comparison to a number of other people on the list there are a lot of people on that list who are more than 500 times more likely to be party to violence and again thats not because of their criminal history thats because of the people theyve been arrested with. You know this is whats really frightening is that there are companies now scoring every subsides that informations out there its not really out there whether theyre a felon or not but it is out there and so what the police here are doing is theyre literally just purchasing information other people already have now that scored society of course is frightening of course its not just a privacy sense that youre giving out this information its about a government owning this information right its a different situation in america were pretty willing to let Big Companies like google and apple know pretty much everything about ourselves more more reluctant to have a government its a good line to draw whats happening here. There is this sort of data convergence where youre really seeing private companies collecting this information and then essentially selling or offering it through Different Services to Law Enforcement and people do know that information in the police dont have it the private companies do have it and thats part of where we are now as technology is collecting as much information about us and as i can. Facebook like click safe. We deliver the data which generates information about us that circulate on the internet until the next update create yet another data set and so on data mining endlessly. Somewhere fairly lost at the bottom of the digital food chain there are people like Robert Mcdaniel. Privacy what privacy. If august will influence this unto whom this appeal comma and says its now almost next month and you still have a democrat up just in time voyager does. He compared to is lawyer doesnt screw up the consul vs him to news and for hobby sponsors sponsors so he did he needs i didnt point just on top. Of the bill is up a friend was jim dobbins still a guy i admit is often spiked as baby because one means one exemption of the obvious oh im torn vs us out at number 5 its of. It to one does. I didnt even get a sketch for dean on t. V. A tough act to. Have in finding ya know a school for just one minute president with him scoring most of the vietnam from mention c. F. E. Get for dean come on having just about some best some of the discipline other course an internet kid got owns a leaping smile can give you an induction hob heaping smock alstom silicone betty. Youre. Going to. Whenever someone fills out an application for a loan theyre going to be providing certain information. The be where software they Access DatabasesFinancial Institutions the courts any type of loaning institutions the where has the ability to access all of those databases simultaneously so when a call comes into our dispatch center and it is categorized as a life threatening call henri in progress crime then and there is an address attached to the view where software automatically searches all of these databases and then provides the operator in the Real Time Crime Center information specific to that address the people that have lived their lives there their cell phone numbers for addresses associates the other piece that we were allows for is to Research Social media and and to gather any type of information that might be in there in terms of threats. The theory behind the ware makes a lot of sense if i was. On the street i was entering a house and i dont know who live there i want all the information i could but the problem is if its so worse through these data brokers there just isnt really much accuracy so you might be arriving at a house in the address alerts as a dangerous place it may be so many lives there may be a dangerous person moved the problem is accuracy and if you are wrong catalogued in the mail and why did someone send me a catalogue i dont have children why do i have it thats the inaccuracy that comes along with these data brokers right they dont need to be perfect because what theyre really doing is trying to sell products to people. Well if the algorithms used in the private sector allowed them to become more successful in targeting their audience product then we should take advantage of that same algorithm that allows us to become more successful in. Preventing crime. In the case of the beware software i think the bad far outweighs any potential good and i can see how in a Perfect World and if the software were perfect it could help make Police Officers safer the problem is. Nothing is perfect is one of the things that the Software Company says that it looks at our postings on social media such as facebook and twitter there was one woman in another city who was flagged in the software for making comments on twitter about rage rage she has a very specific meaning in terms of anger violence but the regime was talking about was a card game called rage that had nothing to do with violence or aggression or anything like that yet she was flying 5 this being a possible problem because she had some of these messages about rage and what if someone is making some its about that they dont trust the police is that going to flag them as being a potential problem so there are too many opportunities for the computer to get it wrong and if they get it wrong coupled with a Police Department that already is much more likely than other Police Departments to shoot citizens. Thats a recipe potentially for disaster. Taking up one question again. Why are we forcing these technologies upon ourselves. The silicon valleys of this world are making a lot of money with them ok. We the users have enjoyed the comforting google land fight and thats it. What if the internet fed by the permanent feedback of its users already had its virtual awakening. What if it developed its own needs and interests if it was always leading us to more convenient technologies because we pay for it with private data. What or freedom was just an illusion. Metropolitan Police Territorial policing working together for a safe i dont. Make. It much for the Police Service and one of his own is a commits energies in that and getting Credit Information indicates that you have or associated to a gang days in the crime if you involved in credit and you know stuff. If you have all the crap and you know stop you mean in target by police and Partner Agencies under a piece of legalization would join and press you may be convicted of a crime and prison for just being present when a serious crime is committed or even with those persons who commit a crime and you dont try to stop it. You would need to change unless the. We can help you to do this for. You can speak in confidence to a Police Officer and or any of the organizations listed at the end of this no i would encourage you to speak to them as they can they hope you break any gang links you know since you are a commando. Thats. The
