<p>I agree.<p>I suppose, my best guess is that a team will be reduced to one or two people; the those that are left will be judged solely on outcomes.<p>Two (human) brains are always useful; the benefit of a human in these scenarios is that we can be accountable, and that we have a very real incentive to do well and not be fired. The LLM obviously doesn't care in that regard!</p>

<p>I think in the future, those who succeed will be equivalent to wayfinders.<p>People who _can_ see the wood for the trees, and are able to understand multiple (sometimes conflicting) requirements and work out a way through that solves the problems that arise, for all involved parties.<p>An understanding of domain, the ability to communicate effectively and a mind that can think laterally, will all be vital.</p>

<p>Exactly.<p>In all cases the first priority of a police officer will be to preserve life.<p>There's no policy in place that would supercede this.<p>I'm stick of having to listen to these uniformed arguments. There's no good that comes from holding these views; only division.</p>

<p>At the the end of the day, you're just a common or garden racist.<p>The main problem, is that you're trying to intellectualise your prejudice; which is quite frankly dangerous.<p>You should be ashamed of yourself.</p>

<p>> You're saying that allegations of two-tier policing are far-right disinformation.<p>No.<p>I am saying that this one event is being used as ammunition by racist organisations to further their aims.<p>One officer was filmed on body cam arresting Henry Nowak. I am referring to him.<p>I am utterly disgusted by the number of frankly racist people using this as a reason to prevent our society being celebrated for its diversity.<p>It's wrong to use this as an example of why immigration is bad for society.<p>I find your efforts abhorrent.<p>> In fact, it is official policy, and the IPCC document leaves no room for interpretation on this.<p>Which policy led to this tragedy occurring?</p>

<p>No.<p>You are incorrect.<p>There was no policy in place that made the officer behave in this way.<p>The police officer made a huge mistake. It's as simple as that.<p>Racist groups are using this ammunition to suggest we need to undo the progress that was put in place to create a fairer more equitable society.<p>You are furthering their aims.</p>

<p>I'll make this simple for you.<p>The behaviour of one officer does not mean that we should no longer live in a diverse society.<p>This is one incident. The officer is question made a terrible call.<p>The fact that people like you are using this as ammunition to further frankly racist aims, is an egregious afront to everyone living in the UK.</p>

<p>It's really not that complicated.<p>If we have fewer non-white police officers, our ability to keep the whole of our (gratefully diverse) population safe is at a disadvantage. We need a police force that accurately represents the full range of diversity in our country.<p>Occasionally members of the police force will f*k up badly. This is a fact.<p>In the case of Henry Nowak, a police officer made an incredibly bad call and this added to Novak's tragic passing.<p>The misdemeanor associated with one person does not mean that our diverse society should be made less diverse.<p>The very fact that people like you are calling for this type of change is ignorant, opportunistic and frankly wrong.<p>I will not stand for it.</p>

<p>I think sometimes the distinction is made between natural and artificial (human made) as a way to sway an argument. In many of these cases, the reasoning is tenuous if we examine with an understanding that the difference is sometimes arbitrary.<p>If anything, we should be more careful with our use of language. For instance; 'naturally ocurring' vs. 'human made'.</p>
