## Chapters 1–4 of 4

### Predictive Policing, Dutch Benefits Scandal and Siri

- **Episode:** [1564: Zombie Town](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1564-zombie-town.md)
- **Published:** 2023-06-15
- **Time:** 1:42:02–1:47:55
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1564-zombie-town/chapter/predictive-policing-dutch-benefits-scandal-and-siri.md

The discussion turns to "predictive policing" and the "Siri" social scoring scandal in the Netherlands. Between 2004 and 2019, faulty algorithms falsely accused 26,000 Dutch parents of benefits fraud, leading to child removals, financial ruin, and suicides. The hosts argue that "AI" is being used as a smokescreen to deflect blame from government bureaucrats for these systemic failures.

### Bill Bratton, Predictive Policing Algorithms

- **Published:** 2014-08-17

NYPD Commissioner Bill Bratton discusses the evolution of "predictive policing" using big data and algorithms. Bratton claims the police can now identify potential criminals and crime locations before an offense occurs, comparing the technology to the film "Minority Report." The hosts express concern over the use of arrest records and residency data to pre-emptively target individuals.

### PredPol and High-Tech Crime Fighting

- **Episode:** [551: The Tolerance Podcast](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/551-the-tolerance-podcast.md)
- **Published:** 2013-09-26
- **Time:** 3:00:36–3:03:22
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/551-the-tolerance-podcast/chapter/predpol-and-high-tech-crime-fighting.md

Police departments in Santa Cruz and Los Angeles are using "PredPol" technology to predict where crimes will occur before they happen. This "predictive policing" relies on big data and historical crime mapping to deploy resources. The hosts dismiss this as another way to squander taxpayer money on tech-driven solutions that fail to address the root causes of crime.

### Predictive Policing and Statistical Crime Analysis

NBC News reports on "predictive policing," a method using mathematical formulas to determine where crimes are likely to occur. Critics argue this is a precursor to arresting individuals before a crime is committed, further eroding civil liberties.
