AI might be perfect for tedious detective work

AI is crawling into almost every part of our lives. We are trying to harness it to'augment our lives and capabilities' while running the risk that AI will supplant our capabilities and ruin our lives. A new example of the power of AI has been announced. AI powered neural networks, at Shanghai Jiao Tong University have identified criminals with an accuracy of 89.5 percent. Leaving aside the question of whether the technology is transferable to other regions and therefore facial formats, you have to wonder about the 10.5 percent of people who were identified inaccurately.
