The UK's Ministry of Justice has been working on a dystopian AI Murder Prediction program that uses algorithms to analyze large data sets and predict who is most likely to become a killer.
The program aims to review offender characteristics that increase the risk of committing homicide and explore innovative data science techniques for risk assessment.
Data from ordinary citizens is being used as part of the project, raising concerns about intrusion and potential targeting of minority communities.
In a separate development, comedian Dave Chappelle criticized Donald Trump's original tariff threats on China, highlighting the unsustainability of bringing back low-paid factory jobs to the US.
