The only fair approach would be to start with the police instead of the army.
Why test this on everybody else except your own? On top of that, AI might even do a better job than the US police
But that AI would have to be trained on existing cops, so it would just shoot every black person it sees
My point being that there would be more motivation to filter Derek Chauvin type of cops from the AI library than a soldier with a trigger finger.
