    Sure, it can’t count how many Rs are in strawberry, but it definitely for sure can predict future affairs in bean stew ingredients. /s

    My ex-wife used tarot cards to justify cheating on me, and then leaving me.

    I didn’t even know she had tarot cards.

      It is amazing what excuses cheaters will use to justify their behavior.

      In my case, my ex did the nature documentary argument way before the manosphere became a thing. I dunno why that is a pattern with that sort of man. They like to think of themselves as superior intellectuals until it comes to sex, then they will make graphs and studies and be pseudo David Attenboroughs to justify that their caveman urges are too strong for them to overcome.

      I guess the female version of that is tarot cards, coffee grounds and zodiacs? I hope you found a better lady later, because that one surely wasn’t worth keeping in your life!

        Well, it’s probably true. Their urges are too strong for them to overcome. But that’s what an adult should be able to do, overcome the fucking urges

          Exactly. But cheaters love pretending their urges are mystical forces, not a failure to act like grown-ups. Funny how that “strength” vanishes when accountability’s involved.

        I’m going to take a risk and leave here the shortcut for Wikipedia’s page on eugenics.

        Next I’m going to add that a person acting/navigating their life based off stupidity or delusion incur in an incresead probability of, by their own actions and choices, remove themselves from the population either by isolation, self endangerment or any behavior that for some reasons makes them non eligible as viable partners.

        This isn’t about a group being labelled and targeted by another for forceful removal of society.

          I think it is wildly inappropriate to try to tell someone that they shouldn’t have kids. Intelligence or looks are not something you can measure are you will always favor people who are like you.

          Also the entire idea of Eugenics is complete BS. Trying to bread a human population has no real impact as you would need to commit genocide. Humans are not nearly as simple as a pea plants.

            When I was still on reddit, I would occasionally come across a comment I liked.

            It could be something as simple as “The (local sports team) is going to (do something sports related) this year!”

            And I, without context, would reply “Please have babies.”

            Sometimes massive upvotes. Sometimes massive downvotes.

            NEVER made any sense. And thats fine.

            People with currently-known genes for conditions like Tay-Sachs (recessive gene, if a baby gets two copies they are a normal baby the first several months, then get progressive nerve damage until they die around three), or Huntington’s (relevant gene is dominant, but condition manifests in adulthood) may choose not to have kids, or use technology like PGD to select embryos without the relevant genes, or in the case of recessive genes may refuse as spouse any potential partner that also has the gene.

            Those are complicated decisions, and nothing should be forced, but it’s important to be able to talk about. There shouldn’t be a taboo on talking about how parents’ decisions affect their children, even if those decisions involve genetics.

        Eugenics is in itself not bad. You’d want to eugenics away sickle cell anemia disease, for example. But because of history, it is understandable that eugenics has gotten a bad rap. And drawing the line where you want to perform it is blurry. Should we do away with autism or Down syndrome?

          No, it is very bad. What gives you the right to deem other unworthy of having children. Under the international law it is genocide to forcefully sterilize a population.

            Why allow child to be born with sickle cell anemia if they are going live a lifetime of pain?

            It is perfectly understandable that eugenics has a bad name because it has been abused. Although, you should read up more on the topic as it is actually more nuanced.

              What gives you the right to decide that life is unforth living? I’m not saying that it isn’t going to be hard but I think it is wildly unfair to take away someones life. If you choose not to have kids due your own experiences that is fine but don’t do more than that.

              There is a movement in the in the downs syndrome community to stop terminating pregnancies. The rational is that people deserve to at least have a chance at life even if it is hard. It is a hard problem but I think the biggest danger is people seeing anyone who is different as likely to suffer.

                What makes you think a lifetime of suffering is worth it? Some children and family sue medical practitioners for not disclosing genetic abnormalities that led to deleterious life which eats away not just their finances, but also their entire sense of fulfillment to live a less stressful life.

                There are diseases that should be rid of, and there are one where it gets blurry and tantamount to genocide as you rightly pointed out. It is not up to me nor anyone really who should decide. Even ethicists can’t settle on the topic.

      The (now divorced) couple do have 2 kids so those genes will continue existing well into the future.

      Still not sure I entirely believe the story but there are a few other mentions with a bit more details

      Not necessarily. I think that predicting crime using public information can be beneficial. It just shouldn’t be invasive or biased, and shouldn’t be used in court to justify a warrant or arrest.

        Let’s not kid ourselves. Publicly available information is invasive and a violation of privacy.

        We have corporations who have effectively set up mass surveillance networks and they call it “adtech”.

        There is an entire economy surrounding “publicly available information”. There are corporations that act as as data brokers and people search websites that compile way too much sensitive information about private individuals. Newspapers systematically report on events that aren’t really of public interest concerning private individuals; e.g. arrest records and these articles hang around forever even if the arrest doesn’t result in a conviction or the crime is expunged.

        If this was employed by the government or law enforcement, it would absolutely include data that extends far beyond the reaches of publicly available information — and it’s worth pointing out that the US has a mass surveillance network in the form of the NSA/PRISM.

        There is zero way you could convince me that AI, prone to hallucination, would be well served to predict crime or criminals. Even if it didn’t hallucinate, it still wouldn’t be possible to predict crime - only potentially anticipate a crime. We aren’t 2D characters following a script — anything can happen.

        Law enforcement is already very unhinged. Let’s not cheerlead the addition of any tools that aid in psychosis to their arsenal.

        All those things that will soon happen whether we like it or not.
