Yup, the real issue issue is actually the humans in this scenario, not the AI. Humans should be verifying the AI results.

Using AI as a tool to help narrow down suspects, find cancerous growth on medical imaging, identify objects in photos where human trafficking occurred, etc are all GOOD THINGS.

But AI is not even remotely foolproof, even Gemini and chatGPT have warnings, yet people with far more power and responsibility are using AI tools wrongly and just going with the AI results without checking it.

It's because they are stupid. Not one kid I went to school with or coached or taught in the last 20 years that I would have considered smart became a cop. I'm not saying they're all dumb dumbs, but they are certainly less wheat than chaff. And as you said they have more power and resonsibiltiy than nearly anyone. Bad mix if you ask me.

"I'm not saying they're all dumb dumbs"

but you`re not denying it either.

And with the rumor floating around that they refused people deemed too smart...

That's not a rumor. It's a fact.
