The police don't need a computer to suspect you. They already suspect you.
They need a computer to blame the mistake on.

"Do you know why I pulled you over?"
"...do you?"
My go to response to that question is, "Because you thought I was Brad Pitt and you wanted my autograph? I know, I get it a lot." I look nothing like Brad Pitt.
If it has anything to do with these l, idk, like 40 grenades in the trunk, we're both in for a party.
The Wired article linked by the OP article mentions visiting multiple banks in a week as suspicious behavior that gets flagged… if we had a car (assuming it needs a license plate to attach to you and look up info), that would have pinged my spouse last week. Stupid fucks live in such ivory towers that they’ve never had a bank run out of quarters for the washing machine.
I used to visit the bank way more often when living paycheck to paycheck because it was the only way to get ahead of insufficient funds charges. I was depositing cash from whatever I could sell to pay off the $25 per item overdraft fees.
I used to be a manager at a smoothie shop. went to like two banks a day with different business needs, guess that's not allowed.... who knew?
They don’t know what a washing machine is. They likely think it’s to clean golf balls.
Well, that's not wrong.
I got so tired of the quarters problem (bank online so I get ATM fees then have to go to a laundromat to pretend I’m doing laundry there) that I bought a whole-ass washing machine for $180 to avoid the problem.
I’m actually saving a ton of money and because my landlord is checked out and lives far from here he’ll never know we have a portable washer in our apartment.

Why would your landlord have a problem with a portable washer in your apartment? Is there language written into your lease prohibiting it?
Side benefit of the extreme proliferation of gambling: basically every bar has a shitload of quarters now.
Not a new problem unfortunately.
Among the things courts or cops have deemed "suspicious":
Booking a nonstop flight
Booking a flight with a layover
Traveling alone
Traveling with a companion
People who appear nervous
People who appear ?too calm?
You left off these ones from the list which are pretty funny
Being the first person off a plane
Being the last person off a plane
Someone authorities believe has tried to blend in to the middle of exiting passengers'
So... getting off a plane then.
No, but now AI can mass-search for those reasons, or combine them, for all of us. You won't even know you were targeted as a political enemy until you're in an interrogation room...
This is exactly why law enforcement using a nationwide surveillance system constantly gathering evidence on everyone passing one of their cameras is a 4th amendment violation.
Bingo. Any reasonable judge would toss these cases for not having probable cause.
This also seems like easy legislation at the federal level. "Driving patterns gleaned from the use of an ALPR system does not, by itself, constitute probable cause."
In a country that has been building its infrastructure around personal automobiles for decades, we cannot make that necessary function of daily life be an automatic consent to targeted analysis.
I get that cameras pointed at intersections and highways are here to stay. That means there will be records of what happens in public places that can be analyzed for a certain person's movements once there's a warrant.
That's the whole fucking point of warrants and 4th amendment protections. Just because the technical ability exists to analyze somebody's Personally Indentifiable Information doesn't mean you just get to do it. Just like you don't get to listen to any phone call you want, or plant bugs and trackers on everybody you are curious. (A group of three-letter agencies enters the chat, lol)
So, it looks for the dark skinned people?
don't eat it.. just take a nibble:

ctOS from Watch Dogs was supposed to be a warning... It wasn't supposed to become a real system.
Hopefully its as easily hackable
Looks like the AI flagged you with code rgb(244,164,96)....
If they're going to keep doing ALPR cameras, license plates should be abolished, as they are compelled speech.
Anyone have links for actual abuse. Stories, cases, real links that show major corruption and abuse of this tech? Large scale the better. I have contacts in a group law firm looking for cases. Maybe people in those positions can make change. Get into the headlines. Link the best reports you can find below.
Upvote this and let's get traction.
The longer I live, the more correct I am for never leaving the basement.
Maybe next life yall. Peace.
I mean I got pulled over for DWB so, meh.
Not driving and not having kids are two things you can do to exempt yourself from a world of possible legal issues.
Walking on the side of the street invites its own set of legal issues.
This one always gets me, walking home from the bar drunk (to avoid driving) can get you thrown in prison, or shot. At least in the US.
Honestly a cop would give you less hassle if you drove home drunk.
There's a video where a guy is just walking home from his shift and gets wellness checked by a passing trooper into being arrested.
The odds of anyone getting shot walking down the street are infinitesimal. Your odds of getting flattened by a car however...
Combining a car's movement behaviour via ANPR/ALPR with known drug routes has been going on for over a decade. This is AI in the data science and pattern recognition sense and not the media hyped LLM sense
@SuiXi3D@fedia.io that is particularly suspicious
US police was using magic wands to detect drugs at schools and mark lockers that need to be searched. AI is not that strange.
