a night, grainy, bw picture from a train surveillance camera got fed into face recognition AI, and the results are the expected: wrong guy jailed, fought months, found not guilty, and is suing for damages. I hope he gets a high 6-digits for the trouble, so it convinces police departments that using AI as a crime stopper will backfire
I hope so... here in Brazil people got jailed even after showing they were 100 miles away, in the public transport, 30 minutes after the crime... and they didn't looked even close to the picture on the crime scene.
the sad thing is that if you are poor, you cannot pay bail and won't have money to fight back
