You’re absolutely right that predictive technology can be dangerous in the wrong hands. But when built ethically and transparently, it can also empower communities and policymakers to act before lives are lost — without violating anyone’s civil rights.

Unlike mass surveillance systems or “pre-crime” units, our model doesn’t monitor individuals or use personal data. It analyzes environmental and behavioral patterns drawn from open-source incident data to identify where conditions for violence are statistically forming — not who will commit it.

You raise a valid point — much of today’s AI is profit-driven, designed to serve corporate or political interests rather than public safety or human rights. That’s one of the biggest reasons I built SentinelForecast360 independently.

6️⃣ Closing Question: If AI can detect patterns that signal risk before tragedy strikes, should we not use it to save lives?

5️⃣ This shows that while AI may not “think” like humans, it can reveal patterns invisible to us, giving communities and law enforcement actionable foresight.

4️⃣ In 2025, SentinelForecast360 identified April and August as the highest-risk months for mass shootings in Los Angeles—and eight tracked incidents confirmed the forecast, achieving 76 percent predictive accuracy.

3️⃣ At the Lewiston Institute, we challenged that assumption. Our AI system, SentinelForecast360, doesn’t try to predict human intent—it analyzes historical incidents, environmental conditions, and temporal patterns to forecast risk.

2️⃣ Deutsch says: “a mere AI is incapable of having any such ideas, because the capacity for considering them has been designed out of its constitution.”

1️⃣ Can AI Predict Mass Shootings?

David Deutsch, in Possible Minds: 25 Ways of Looking at AI, argues that AI lacks the creativity to predict complex human behaviors such as mass shootings.

Trump didn’t win the Nobel Peace Prize, so now Republicans want Congress to just hand him one.
You know, like how toddlers get a sticker for trying their best.

It'll be messy!

🚨 From Trump’s Nobel Peace Prize nomination:

The man who 'ended 8 wars' — yet declared one on Americans — might soon start new wars in Canada, Mexico, or Greenland...

But not Norway. I mean, it’s not like you rigged the Peace Prize… right!?

🤔 What happens if he doesn’t win?

1️⃣ The Maine 'Amazon Ballot Box' Incident — What’s Really Going On?

A Newburgh, Maine woman allegedly received 250 absentee ballots in an Amazon box — the same day Ellsworth reported 250 missing.
Coincidence? Maybe not.

If you come for my people, you come through me.

Strip away left vs. right politics, and mass shootings come down to two undeniable truths:

1) A person choosing homicidal violence.

2) Easy access to guns.

Unless we face these realities and work together to create effective solutions, the killing won’t stop. #EndGunViolence

At the Lewiston Institute, we use advanced data analysis to uncover patterns in mass gun violence—patterns that can predict where and when tragedy might strike.

It is my hope that these insights will empower politicians, communities, and save lives. #EndGunViolence

The return of Trump isn’t just a moment in history—it’s a warning that democracy, once compromised, may never fully recover.

The question now is: who will fight for its survival?

Wow! The Consumer Financial Protection Bureaus new rule will remove $49 billion in medical debt from the credit reports of about 15 million Americans, according to the bureau, which means lenders won't be able to take that into consideration when deciding to issue loans.

The guy is deranged and he hasn’t been sworn in yet.

This is not OK, America, but if we go to war, MAGATs first
