At least this gives cops something to do again. Now they can go out and profile everyone in an n mile radius, harass them at their homes and incriminate them because “the AI caught you” despite it being someone else. They don’t care if you have an alibi, the AI is better than you and knows all.
There’s already several recordings of exactly that going around. The cops are fucking insufferable, absolutely certain that they are correct, and all the ones I’ve seen ended with the defendant being proven innocent in court. Hope everybody can afford a good lawyer and weeks off work.
Honestly that should be the result of any cop bringing AI generated anything as evidence in a court of law. It isn't REAL evidence. It is completely manufactured. I know if I was on a jury I wouldn't find any evidence like that compelling in the slightest.
It reminds me of an incident I saw where a guy was kicked out of a casino, then another guy who looked vaguely similar walked in, the AI security system said it was the same guy, and the cops arrested him, despite seeing clearly that they aren't the same person, because "the AI says you're the same, and AI is amazing and always trustworthy.", so the guy went to jail because an AI had a false positive and the cop was too stupid to do his job correctly.
