AI将薯片误判为枪，美国一学生被警察包围
双语君约 3 分钟Police officers swarmed a 16-year-old high school student last week after an artificial intelligence (AI) gun detection system mistakenly flagged his bag of chips as a firearm, leaving officials and students shaken.
警察局公布的执法记录仪视频显示，出警警察发现是学校的实时监控人工智能安防系统将一个薯片包装袋误判为枪支，才引发了警方的执法行动。
Student Taki Allen was waiting for his ride at Kenwood High School in Essex, Maryland, last Monday when he placed an empty bag of chips in his pocket, according to WMAR-2 News. Moments later, police officers suddenly surrounded him, ordering him to the ground and handcuffing him, the local station reported.
Body camera footage released by the Baltimore Police Department shows responding officers realizing that the school’s AI security system, which monitors video in real time, had mistakenly flagged a bag of chips as a gun, triggering the law enforcement response.
"Police showed up, like eight cop cars, and then they all came out with guns pointed at me talking about getting on the ground. I was putting my hands up like, 'What's going on?'" Allen told WMAR-2.
"He told me to get on my knees, arrested me and put me in cuffs," he said.
Baltimore County Police Department said their officers "responded appropriately and proportionally based on the information provided at the time".
It said the AI alert was sent to human reviewers who found no threat - but the principal missed this and contacted the school's safety team, who ultimately called the police.
提供监控系统的公司Omnilert发声明致歉，表示对事件深感遗憾，但强调整体流程运作如设计，只是真实世界的枪支侦测相当混乱，难免出现误报。
