Court Bans Use of 'AI-Enhanced' Video Evidence Because That's Not How AI Works
This AI hype cycle has dramatically distorted society's views of what's possible with image upscalers.
A judge in Washington state has blocked video evidence that’s been “AI-enhanced” from being submitted in a triple murder trial. And that’s a good thing, given the fact that too many people seem to think applying an AI filter can give them access to secret visual data.
You're viewing a single thread.
Think about how they reconstructed what the Egyptian Pharoahs looks like, or what a kidnap victim who was kidnapped at age 7 would look like at age 12. Yes, it can't make something look exactly right, but it also isn't just randomly guessing. Of course, it can be abused by people who want jurys to THINK the AI can perfectly reproduce stuff, but that is a problem with people's knowledge of tech, not the tech itself.
Unfortunately, the people with no knowledge of tech will then proceed to judge if someone is innocent or guilty.
