This doesn't seem to make sense. By more accurately predicting where crimes will occur, the police departments can reduce the amount of patrols needed.

FAST, the Future Attribute Screening Technology, was a federal precrime research effort from the Department of Homeland Security which sought to pick criminals out at public locations based on biometrics. [0] FAST was tested in secret on the USA population in an unknown location. [1]

PredPol is a precrime system written by a mathematician (an assistant professor of math and CS) which recommends where police officers ought to patrol. [2] PredPol was deployed in Santa Cruz and Los Angeles, CA.

This is not fiction.

No the book and movie are fiction, I mean. You can't learn anything from them. They're made up. Inside someone's head. There's zero data points in them.

I'm sure you can learn something from studying the history of the two projects you mentioned!

But not from a story someone made up and that some people acted out on a film set. That's not data. Don't base you philosophy on something that didn't actually happen.
