Interesting development! Slippery slope at the very least. Seems like this is square between "profiling" and that PK Dick story "Minority Report" On 8/26/16 5:24 PM, Pamela McCorduck wrote: So agree. We are *so* far from certain on this one. On Aug 26, 2016, at 5:11 PM, Tom Johnson

I think we should proceed with great caution on this one. http://blogs.wsj.com/law/2016/07/13/court-judges-can-consider-predictive-algorithms-in-sentencing/ TJ ===
