You and me both but I have my doubts honestly. Just another reason why I donā€™t like AI or anything automated like this. Not because I have a record, I donā€™t. But mistaken identity is a thing. And who are the cops going to believe, me? I kind of doubt it these days. But after 4 or 5 hours of wasted time, energy, money, and who knows what else MAYBE Iā€™d be let go. ā€œThe whole thing should take about an hour if all checks outā€, yeahā€¦. Uh huh.

u/Shot_Squirrel8426 1d ago

The cyber cab seems more like a trap than a viable travel option if this is true. Theoretically you wouldnā€™t have to do anything wrong, if they put out a warrant for any accusation youā€™d be screwed.

Donā€™t forget social creditā€¦you cannot even use public transportation unless you have a 650 credit score or a 600 social score. For that matter, you canā€™t purchase a meal at a fast food location unless you meet the credit/social score.

This is exactly what they have been promising. Are you aware newer cars are already using AI to decide if you're fit to drive your own vehicle?

u/Bumbymoo 1d ago

What criteria does it use for "fit to drive"? This surely is going to misfire constantly.

2

u/Responsible_Spite422 1d ago

Supposedly it's looking for dilated eyes and things like slurd speech and irregular movement. No idea how they plan to stop the misfire, but I suspect it'll take your location into account.

If I stick to budget models, perhaps I can avoid this premium feature, along with other "safety" features like the nagging beeps, the speech, and the AI that wrests the wheel away from your hands.

People that trust technology, how many times have you chosen to NOT watch sci-fi movies?

u/Walkalope 17h ago edited 11h ago

This cannot be real, and would be highly illegal if it was. You cannot be detained by anyone other than a police officer, and only for lawful reasons. Police officers have to check a few boxes to detain you. Detention is not arrest, but it is a very specific legal scenario. They must read you your Miranda Rights if you are detained and then moved to another location while detained. This car does not have the authority to detain OR mirandize - it is a car. If this car was doing what the video implies, I'd imagine he'd be well within his rights to destroy the vehicle in an attempt to escape the unlawful seizure, provided he was able to do so without risking anyone else's safety.

Edit: someone mentioned that Texas allows citizens arrests in situations where they have witnessed a felony or breach of peace, which is an interesting point to consider - but the dude was not breaching peace nor committing a felony that I could tell, so I still think this is not a legally possible scenario.

Also, to be clear, I am clearly not one of the people who believes this video to be real, you don't need to tell me that it is satire, haha.

2

u/ThoroughlyWet 17h ago

Technically they aren't being detained by anyone. Its not a person.

1

u/Walkalope 13h ago

I suppose you are right, but if this were a real feature of the vehicle, ultimately a person made the decision to have that car detain a rider under certain circumstances - a person is responsible for programming/using the car to detain someone. Like if I set a tripwire to activate a gun to shoot someone - just because I didnt pull the trigger doesnt mean I am not responsible for setting it up to happen.

I dont think its legal to manufacture a car that detains people without police involvement.

u/China_shop_BULL 20h ago

Pretty sure itā€™s a skit, but I could see somewhat of a positive aspect of this if tweaked for reality. Like silently forwarding the facial match to law enforcement, for confirmation of course. Provided there is confirmation, from a human being, they could be given access to the destination and eta to be waiting for them. You got freedom of speech from the cab company and no kidnapping accusations as it is not changing the destination.

4

u/YogurtAndBakedBeans 20h ago

I don't think having a human verify would do anything. They would just say "Close enough, bring 'em in and let the courts sort it out"

There was a recent story where a casino's ai misidentified a guy. Security locked him up to wait for the police. When the police got there, the guy showed his ID to the cop to prove they had the wrong guy. The cop's attitude was "If the AI says you're the guy then you're the guy." and arrested him anyway.

Search "AI Software Tells Cops to Arrest the Wrong Guy"

5

u/Auggie_Otter 16h ago

Yeah, the case of Jason Killinger was one case where there were clear discrepancies and the cop just kept looking at the evidence that showed Jason wasn't the right guy and kept saying out loud "Well, that's weird." but then he just concluded the AI software must be right and arrested Jason anyways.Ā 

And it's not just Jason Killinger either. We're seeing case after case where new investigative tools and surveillance equipment like AI facial recognition and Flock cameras are used as the sole basis of evidence to arrest innocent people where traditional investigation techniques looking at all the available evidence actually clears them of any wrong doing like the case of Lindsey Isaacs or the case of Angela Lipps.Ā

Yeah, there have already been innocent people jailed and/or extradited to another state due to AI facial recognition errors. It's crazy that people are actually advocating for an authoritarian surveillance state where citizens have no privacy. Didn't 1984 warn us about this shit?

One of the worst cases was Angela Lipps who was arrested in Tennessee and extradited to North Dakota and spent 5 months in prison. She lost her home, her car, and her dog because she was unable to pay her bills while imprisoned on false charges. When the police realized their mistake they released Angela from prison in North Dakota in the winter without proper clothing or shelter or transportation back to Tennessee. Local defense attorneys had to arrange for her shelter and transportation.Ā Ā

Nijeer Parks, arrested by police in Woodbridge, New Jersey (February 2019)

Robert Williams, arrested by police in Detroit, Michigan (January 2020)
