AI could improve real time emergency response
0AI could improve real-time emergency response.
AI-powered surveillance might sound like the plot of a Spielberg film, but the technology is no longer science fiction. Machine learning is used to improve facial recognition algorithms, allowing law enforcement and first responders to quickly and accurately obtain information during an emergency. The technology is already in use in many public spaces and in the newest crop of home security devices.
AI-powered facial recognition raises important questions about privacy, but the technology has the potential to dramatically improve your safety.
Video surveillance has existed for decades, but trawling through hours of recorded footage for a single individual or a single moment limits its usefulness. AI can bypass these limitations and search through surveillance footage for specific patterns at a rate that humans could never meet, potentially identifying threats, emergencies, or even individuals at a moment’s notice.
