We need some way to address the low level crime in the US. If you look at cities in east Asia, they're both much larger than typical US cities and much safer. It -is- possible to have safe large cities. The fact that we don't is a choice.

The internet has disconnected us from reality so much that a lot of people simply don't care. If it supports the party line they are for it.

I guess what would be the advantage? You move up another layer of software. Is it any different from the OS?

That's right. It was uncalled for. I see no evidence OP was making a bad faith argument, but you assumed that right away.

Are people not allowed to suggest models may be too censored? Is that idea censored?

Yes but OP made a good point (model censorship going too far in the name of "woke"ness) and you shut them down.

Why only serious crimes?

If someone breaks into my car and a Flock camera sees it, is their right to privacy in a public space more important than my right to not have my property get stolen?

I also thought it was interesting that the author basically argues Flock cameras are too effective at figuring out where criminals are, but then also argues they aren’t effective enough at reducing crime.

Interesting that for all the hype, all the benchmarks - none of these 3 demos are anything close to Counter Strike.

Anyone know how Gemini CLI with this model compares to Codex and Claude Code?

If they can’t be bothered to write it, why should I be bothered to read it?
