Spot released from service. "It's a waste of money for works, it's better to spend on the poor"

in #science4 years ago

The spot has served on the streets of New York for several months.

Police officers used it for dangerous actions related to criminal groups.

The services generally praised the work with the robo-dog.

The only limitation was its batteries, which allow it to work only 1.5 hours.Unfortunately, from the outset, Spot was on the censored Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez, a populist member of the House of Representatives and the BLM movement.

She said in her Twitter posts that the NYPD's nearly $ 100,000 contract with Boston Dynamics could have been better managed. Ocasio-Cortez found the robot racist and its actions against colored communities.

According to her, the money should go "to low-income communities of color and underfunded schools" and not be wasted on robots of no practical value.

Meanwhile, police representatives, in response Cortez said that thanks to such machines, New York has been becoming a safer city for many decades. Please ask yourself: when was the last time you saw next-generation, world class technology for education, healthcare, housing, etc.

consistently prioritized for underserved communities like this?

They can be sent for reconnaissance in dangerous places, thanks to which police officers can better find out about the situation and carry out an action effectively.

Needless to say, their work saved many lives, both on the side of law enforcement and criminals. Technological enthusiasts believe that Spot has lost to politics and the new socialist movements that flood, among others,

United States.

Their representatives are detached from reality.

In fact, it will benefit all communities more from the kind of machines (and the technological advances they bring) with which to keep thousands of people safe than to support poor families, who have been poor since the dawn of time, are and will be because they are.

is their nature.

Money won't change anything here.
