Only place they need installing is at traffic signals & that drivers will soon begin to stop at them instead of speeding up to 40-45mph to get through them- and i mean every single traffic light in the country.
On the stats, 13 not in control of the car - would be interesting as to how the model was trained for that and so how does it know alongside any added factors e.g. someone swerving to miss a pot hole from ripping their tyre off or something blown in the road. Certainly interesting to see one of those cases taken to court.
Can AI catch motorway middle lane hoggers? And dual carriageway outside lane hoggers? Time and again I see drivers completely oblivious of the spirit of “keep left unless overtaking” - this means that our main route carriageways are less efficient imo.
Haven’t watched it all but in this particular use of AI throws up the usual dilemma , the negatives of big brother always watching against the positives of catching criminals or those breaking the law. I’m afraid the pessimist (or realist) in me can’t help thinking that the police and local authorities will just use these cameras as cash cows, particularly if or more like when their widespread adoption is completed. AI’s function makes it way easier for fines to be levied because it significantly reduces the man hours required to operate the cameras and check for transgressions. I’m not condoning breaking the law, but mobile phone use and non wearing of seatbelts then developers prosecution of less serious driving manoeuvres etc. Yes I know the old adage if you aren’t doing anything wrong then why worry, but it is the endless mission creep of how these technologies are adopted and developed. In the case of CCTV, it is often the case that the those committing serious crime, work around the cameras either by disguise or selecting camera black-spots etc, so the justification for 24/7 big brother style surveillance is ineffective at preventing or in some cases prosecuting serious crimes, whilst simultaneously tarring everyone with the same brush. Before everyone piles in, I am aware that with mobile phones etc you can be tracked wherever you go, but then you have the option of turning it off should you wish to go about your lawful business in cognito. AI’s adoption in some applications clearly has advantages, I’d just question that it’s use in conjunction with the ever increasing widespread camera network, comes at what price to civil liberties?🤔
In regards to drink drive, I think in car radar and external camera's would judge our driving skill. Should you drive in a way which alerts other cameras and authorities. Isn't true most cars have internal technology (Currently not switched on in Uk) for the car not to start without an breath teat like in Europe.
The rise of AI surveillance is a serious threat to privacy and freedom in a democratic society. Whether it’s public spaces or inside cars, we’re being monitored and analysed more than ever, often in the name of safety. Sure, these systems can sometimes prevent harm ... like spotting someone at risk of suicide at a train station or catching seatbelt offences, but it comes at a cost. The very “ping ping ping” noise in cars, designed to nag people into wearing seatbelts, can actually be a distraction for those who choose not to wear one. We all know seatbelts save lives, but not everyone wants to wear one ... just like we all know smoking is bad for you, but some people still choose to do it. This kind of surveillance turns everyday spaces into places of control, making people feel like they’re always being watched. It’s a slippery slope toward the kind of oversight you see in authoritarian countries like China, where everything is tracked. Yes, AI can bring some good, like improving safety, but is it worth giving up personal freedom and privacy? In a democracy, people should have the right to make their own choices and live without being constantly monitored. AI surveillance needs strict limits to stop it from going too far. If we don’t push back now, we could lose the freedoms that make our society what it is.
I don't wear seat belts old school never have just use a plug in buckle of ebay but then never wore a mask during the pandemic or jab, thinking of starting a new business selling T Shirts with a black line across them ..
Richard, it’s good to see you leverage your contacts. Your guest is giving a great insight on AI capabilities. Awaiting part 2. Thanks
We need to know about this AI stuff. Keep them coming.
Fascinating 🙂
Thank you and Part 2 is really good too

Big brother funding corporate profits,,,they don’t care for people’s safety it’s there for profit

It’s nothing to do with speeding etc but all about ultimately depriving us of the right of & ability to engage in open ended free movement ever again.

We’re no longer in anything approaching a democracy here in U.K.
It’s one Uniparty, agents of WEF.

Sounds like insurance company’s are driving AI to disclaim responsibilities
Revenue driven technology like speeding cameras
The easy way to increase taxes. Motorists easy option
I still don’t wear a seat belt I’m old school might not be right .
