Give crows a reward, and they'll remember your face/clothing
Scare them away, and they'll also remember your face/clothing
If anyone hypothetically wanted to, they could buy lots of dry cat food (which crows love), and teach them to like you
And you could also try to trample them/shoo them off, wearing CERTAIN UNIFORMS, teaching them to hate people who wear said uniforms
Yes and if they like you enough they will bring you gifts/follow you around.
I used to keep a pocket full of raw spanish peanuts and leave them behind me as I walked to work.
After a couple months I would always have about 5 or 6 crows follow me all the way from the park I would start my walk in to the parking lot at work where folks in the warehouse would also feed them.
Sometimes they would even come in and just hang out with me on my break on the stack of pallets where I would take my smoke break.

I've got a nice crow that eats shit (not actual shit) out of a compost bin sometimes.
I swear crows have gotten bigger over the years though, anyone else noticing this?
Thought this said cows, and got excited for a moment. Pretty sure people have been training crows for a while now. Remember the guy on 4chan who accidentally trained some corvids (can't remember if crows or not) to bring him change, and he was asking if it legally counted as stealing?
I tried feeding the crows peanuts and catfood and it was working pretty well, except I was too depressed to do it consistently which hampered the growth of my invincible crow army. I also meta opossum.
I've been wanting to do that, but there are never crows close enough for me to even offer food.
