>Why not look at actual data, which is likely to tell you that crime has plunged everywhere since the 80s.
Overall yes, but not everywhere in my opinion. Many places got safer, but some places got much worse
edit: added "Yes, but" for clarification.
At what point do we say, "automation as a reason for failure is no longer acceptable"?
Edit: That is, when the published information is wrong, false, and was not taken down, or was taken down...

Sidewalks are also very dirty (spit, dogs, trash, etc.) I think this would have been better by mounting them on the walls.
Many cultures consider stepping on someone's name, burial, or memorial horribly disrespectful.

(I have to admit, my first thought was, why would a some vegetable juice mess with the future of computing? And, are we talking the spicy V8, low salt, or the regular?)[0]
I guess I am over-pedantic, so yes, I partially stand corrected. Loosely they "turned red". Once the bees delivered their load from their honey stomach, were they still red?
I do not think the bees turned red. The honey might, but not necessarily the bees. The article implies this through out.
Found some pictures of red honey in comb.

>The chickens are using an input device (the motion sensor) to invoke a computer function [...]
No, per the description and your legal context, the chickens are not taking the pictures.
this is a good legal question.
If I understand it correctly, in the USA, property owners own the airspace above their land, but there are 'easements' for aeroplanes.
How does this work for drones? Do they get the easement through FAA?
that is not Amazonian. ;-)
Craft a piece of code (ML, AI, whatever) that monitors 10.000 drones, and triggers alerts on deviation. Another piece of code reviews the alerts and taking various other factors into consideration filters alerts down; to which the human drone monitor responds. Now that is Amazonian.
Good thread to pull.
Amazon automates as much as possible. How much automation is acceptable before it crosses to unacceptable by FAA?
Can one pilot manage 12 drones?
Can the drones decide their own altitude, path, speed?
Can a ML software layered over the drone controls, and video/telemetry and them trigger alarm/interaction with pilot on discrepancies/emergencies?

Thanks for the clarification.
> They are presented (and potentially qualified) as "experts"
Does this not follow a proper scientific method? The expert draws some conclusion based on some scientific process they performed. The other side can challenge the data, method, chain of custody, record keeping, expertise of anyone working on it, and so on.
You keep putting the term expert in quotes. What is the bar of an expert in your mind?
