Lawsuit: "Police let an error-prone AI system stand in for an investigation."

    I think this cop can only be condemned if it can be proven that he was knowingly doing something illegal ?

    So essentially, he will just say he trusted the recognition software to be accurate and that he isn’t liable for that.

    As long as that kind of immunity is there it’s incredibly difficult to sanction cops for stuff like that.

      I love this world where we can be arrested and jailed and have our lives ruined because cops can’t be arsed to verify whether somebody was anywhere else at the time because a machine said ”It’s him…I guess.”
