"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

And the reason I was ID’d as a dangerous car thief was a simple data error made 2,000 miles away in California, creating an edge case within an edge case that Flock’s AI camera network was unable to handle

Everyone is all ears for solutions: https://www.news5cleveland.com/news/local-news/we-follow-through/clevelands-flock-safety-cameras-set-to-go-dark

I don't think we're using alternate timelines enough. This is an example of a situation where nobody involved wanted to be in that situation, and it happened anyway. Who had something they could've done differently that wouldn't have brought that situation to a Kohl's parking lot? Maybe instead of reviewing a range rover he should've been reviewing a rental Nissan Versa?

Right now Flock can have as absolutely shit of an AI as they want and there's no incentive to improve it. False positives don't cost them anything. And P.S. the video data isn't ever going away.
