"AI" gets an innocent man arrested; even after validating his Real ID card, cop discounts possibility of facial recognition false positive: "their software is pretty cool" and "our hands are tied"

Coming back around to this old classic: 1979 IBM Document

This is a failure of computing, personnel training, etc. a person cannot relinquish their responsibilities to a computer, they are still liable for the mistake, or they should be.

‘Who builds a ballpark next to a gun range?’: Coach injured by gunfire that crossed into baseball diamond

The article says that the people who were shooting weren't on the shooting range property, so it was probably just some morons shooting guns in an unsafe location who and direction who can't be bothered to use the shooting range. Hopefully the range, were they to actually use it as intended, has proper berms and backstops to keep any rounds from going an unsafe direction.

You could watch it if you stop before the end, maybe through season 6, definitely before 8.

I still recommend the books though, which are still good despite the fact that we will never see the end written by the original author.
