I'm assuming these won't be powered by AI, that will come later. The first generation will probably be controlled by humans.

But I've played video games where the AI of the security guards completely lost it's mind and started slaughtering all the unarmed NPC civilians in an area, when I, the player, was the only one who was being naughty. Basically the security guards in the game existed only to attack the player if they did something bad like stealing things or breaking into restricted areas of the map or attacking innocent characters, all of which I was doing. (immersive sim games are awesome.) But, instead of attacking me, the guards wiped out all the unarmed NPCs in the area. Crazy glitch! Especially because the unarmed characters couldn't have attacked anyone. I think what must have happened in the game, is that one of the security guards found one of the unconscious NPCs I knocked out and somehow attributed it to the civilian team, and all hell broke loose.

Ideally, we would not be stupid enough to potentially allow scenarios (armed and dangerous, buggy/rogue AI) like the above to play out in the real world.

that depends entirely on what part of Oakland you are in, most of it is not nearly as bad as you think

I spent three years around Oakland to Richmond to the tenderloin.

If there is a nice area, I didn't see it.

I was told by a friend that the gangs in that area killed the valedictorian, just because he was the top student in his class.

Another of my friends, a youngster that went to school in Oakland, he told me that only thirty kids graduated that year.. he told me it was common to see teachers with black eyes.

The bottom line is that the entire bay area is infested with homeless and addicts and gangsters and murder.. you are rolling the dice with your life just driving down the street.

The people with money live in the Oakland hills, those are the nice parts of Oakland. Look up the Shepherd Canyon or Montclair neighborhood

Yeah, bla bla.. the reality is that the gangs and the violence will eventually catch up to you.

Talking to you is a nonstop argument, while I do my best to remain flexible and pleasant.

Nope, if they want to kill someone they should have to put themselves in harms way to do it.
