    People need to police their neighborhoods. Using AI as the touchpoint for routing emergencies sends a really clear message; the cops aren’t prioritizing the public safety aspect of their job. But then again, acab exists because they’ve always prioritized the power of the state and the financially connected.

    Capitalism creating situations that won’t outright be responsible for murder, but will definitely increase deaths among vulnerable people.

    Evolution selecting for good capitalists.

      [Waning consciousness] …help…

      Sure! I can help you with that!
      One of the most fascinating facts about oak trees is that they function almost like wildlife restaurants—especially for caterpillars, which are essential food for birds and many other animals.

      Here are some useful facts:

      🌳 Oaks are the No. 1 caterpillar-producing plant genus in North America. Ecologist Doug Tallamy and colleagues compiled host-plant records and found that oaks (Quercus) support more species of caterpillars than any other plant genus.
      🐛 In the Mid-Atlantic alone, oaks support about 557 species of caterpillars. That’s [wall of text]

      Would you like to learn more about the different species of oak around the world?

    If anyone bothered to read the article, it’s not nearly as stupid as it sounds. That’s not to say it’s a good idea, just that not nearly as dumb as people are making it out to be.

    It’s designed specifically to handle multiple callers who are calling about existing/known incidents, as a tool to relieve human operators, and simply gather additional details, or provide information to the callers.

    So while I can’t say that I’m in favor of it, the actual scope of deployment is much different than what the headline would have you believe.
