Angela Lipps spent nearly six months in jail in Tennessee and North Dakota after being misidentified by Fargo police through AI facial recognition in a bank fraud investigation.
I hate AI as it currently exists, and I hate those that sell it as tools for critically important missions (let alone beyond anything experimental), but these errors were all made by humans. No one interviewed her for months after she already was imprisoned.
A false arrest is already a terrible mistake, but what went on after was astonishingly worse and not an AI’s fault. Anyone who dealt with this case should be personaly liable for what happened to this woman
Yes, including the humans who work at and own the AI company that sold the shittty tool that the cops used. The AI company deserves to be sued if they claimed their product was reliable enough to do the job that the cops used it for.
Sue the ever longing shit out of the AI compay

They have good lawyers (users are supposed to double check stuff like this) and the cops have immunity.
Nah, lawyer here, product liability action all day long and police do not have civil immunity for 1983 violations.
Their lawyers make more money than you and are therefore superior.
Perhaps, we shall see.
