How China monitors its citizens using artificial intelligence in CCTV cameras

#artificialintelligence

It is relatively well known that China has developed technology that can effectively monitor the country's citizens. Scientists working for The Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) have been working on CCTV cameras which have artificial intelligence embedded in them for years. The software, known as Ensemble Net, has been trained using clips from CCTV cameras to identify people and track their movements across the country. It's been tested across the country and, according to reports, it is supposedly 90 per cent accurate. The system will be able to scan body shapes and facial features, before scanning its database to see if it finds a match.
