When I was working retail, I damn sure didn't care about theft. They didn't pay me enough to confront people who may be armed. Just like I ain't dying for an oil company by joining the military, I'm not risking my life for better numbers on a corpo's spreadsheet.
@@Kumo-s6f I worked at a place where they told us to go confront people we thought were stealing gasoline -- which only happened because the idiots let people pump before they pay. Anyway, I told them straight-up that I'm not doing that shit unless I get a .45 supplied from the company. They told me I was being unreasonable. Two weeks later one of my coworkers had a gun drawn on her by somebody allegedly stealing gas.

3:55: "A COMPUTER CAN NEVER BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE THEREFORE A COMPUTER MUST NEVER MAKE A MANAGEMENT DECISION" ~ slide from a 1979 IBM presentation Fucked up thing is we've been having computers do stuff like determine rent prices for decades now. There's algorithm-based software designed to sorta "optimize" rent prices that sorta indirectly networks together since part of the price determination is what other places nearby are charging. The end result is if most people are using the software, landlords and management companies don't have to be so competitive with their rents. Part of why housing is so fucked up these days, it's arguably legal price-fixing. That and it cuts out the ability for renters to attempt to negotiate or bargain the terms of their rent, since the landlord isn't deciding the price anymore and can pass the blame to the computer. Like many things we've been able to do before AI, we can ruin lives with computers easily enough without it.
Mirror? Not even. My walmart had CAMERAS and a display of yourself in their self checkout. They updated machines and the current cameras are off, but they're still there.
I cant tell if Woolie never realized those are one way mirror's with a camera on the other side lol if the store cheaps out sometimes they'll mount a couple with no camera just as a deterrent. Those have mostly been replaced by the large black bubbles.

Just hope that they are actually on the level and not just doing backdoor deals with MS or anything (like SAG and the whole AI thing).
