University of Chicago scientists invent algorithm that predicts crime with 90% accuracy ha ha ha LOL

It predicts crime, eh? Must be rayciss!
The never-ending quest to predict crime using AI

The practice has a long history of skewing police toward communities of color. But that hasn’t stopped researchers from building crime-predicting tools.

And as the United States faces rising rates of violent crime, another research project emerged: A group of University of Chicago scientists unveiled an algorithm last month, boasting in a news release of its ability to predict crime with “90% accuracy.”

The algorithm identifies locations in major cities that it calculates have a high likelihood of crimes, like homicides and burglaries, occurring in the next week. The software can also evaluate how policing varies across neighborhoods in eight major cities in the United States, including Chicago, Los Angeles and Philadelphia.

Sounds good, right? But wait, there's more.

Historically, police data in the United States is biased, according to Southerland. Cops are more likely to arrest or charge someone with a crime in low-income neighborhoods dominated by people of color, a reality that doesn’t necessarily reflect where crime is happening, but where cops are spending their time.

That means most data sets of criminal activity overrepresent people of color and low-income neighborhoods. Feeding that data into an algorithm leads it to suggest more criminal activity is in those areas, creating a feedback loop that is racially and socioeconomically biased, Southerland added.

Comparing real life to a movie is a great way to begin your article.

It’s been a known fact for a while that the percentage of niggers in an area and not poverty is the top predictor of crime. Any cop will tell you that behind closed doors. You don’t really need an AI to predict crime though, anyone who has been exposed to TNB and has some self respect knows niggers just love committing crimes and resisting arrest.

I also have an algorithm for predicting crime. I just point on a map. Let's see.....Chicago, NYC....

You don’t need a degree in science to predict where crimes will occur. If niggers are around, there will be crimes committed.The more niggers,the more crimes!

Here's the algorithm:

If niggers=>0 Then crime=true

[I aint bin dun did dat!]

Nigger population 13% = nigger murder rate 52%

Nigger population 14% = nigger murder rate 56%

The AI is indeed very clever in its ability to predict that more niggers equals more crime. There is nothing about niggers that requires rocket science to understand,
