city is recording drivers that AI says are bad

In a high -tech movement that we can all take and is not dystopian at allThe city of Barcelona feeds the data from the city’s camera in an advanced AI, but they swear that they do not use images to issue tickets for bad drivers. Again.

Barcelona and its Rivale Lower Take -up Establishment area won many fans by limiting ice circulation in the heart of the city. The last idea of ​​the city to promote public transport is the deployment of an artificial intelligence system developed by Hayden IA for the automatic application of tracks and reserved stops to improve the circulation of buses – but although it seems to work as expected, it raises entirely different questions.

“Bus tracks are designed to help provide a reliable, fast and practical public transport service. But private vehicles using bus routes make this impossible, “explains Laia Bonet, first deputy mayor, urban planning area, ecological transition, urban services and housing at the Barcelona Ajuntament. “We are delighted to associate with Hayden IA to find out where these problems occur and how they have an impact on our public transport service.”

Currently as a pilot program on the city’s H12 and D20 bus lines, the system uses cameras installed on the city’s electric buses to detect vehicles that commit static violations in bus tracks and stops (Read: stop or park where you should not). The Hayden AI system then analyzes this data and provides statistical information on what it captures while the bus drives on its daily route.

Hayden said that, although he photographs and records video sequences and collects contextual information from the violation, his cameras make not Registered license plates or people and no penalty are issued to drivers or vehicle owners.

So far everything is fine, right? But this is what is happening once the pilot of the Six Mont is finished which seems to be triggered from the alarm ringtones.

Big Brother The bus looks

The images are examined manually by an officer of the Metropolitans of Barcelona (TMB), who would have examined some 2,500 violations identified by AI in May only. But, although the system is not used to issue violations during the pilot program, this could easily.

And, in fact, he already has … and AI F @ # Ked Up Royally.

I wrote thousands of bad tickets

When AI had the opportunity to issue quotes in New York earlier this year, He wrote more than 290,000 tickets (It’s true: two hundred and ninety years thousand) In just three months, generating nearly $ 21 million in income for the city. It was just a problem: Thousands of these drivers did nothing wrong.

In addition, the fines generated by cameras fueled by AI were supposed to be approved only After Be checked by a human, but either it did not occur, either it happened and the human operator in question was not paying attention, or (perhaps the worst possibility) Violations were errors or hallucinationsAnd the human verifier could not make the difference.

In the OpenAi tests of its new models of reasoning O3 and O4-Mini, the company found the Hallucinated O3 model 33% of the time during its Personqa tests, in which the bot is asked questions about public figures. When he asked him short questions based on cases in the company’s simpleqa tests, Openai said that O3 has hallucinated 51% of the time. The O4-Mini model is even worse: it hallucinated 41% of the time during the Personqa test and 79% of the time in the Simpleqa test, although Openai said that its worse performance was expected because it is a smaller model designed to be faster. The latest Openai update on Chatgpt, GPT-4.5, hallucinous less than its O3 and O4-Mini models. The company said that when GPT-4.5 was published in February, the model had a hallucination rate of 37.1% for its simpleqa test.

Forbes

I do not know for you guys, but if we had a local traffic cop which was wrong 33% of the time (at best), I would be surprised if they kept their work for a very long time. But have? AI has a media train of several billion dollars and armies of underestimated believers speaking of singularities and building blond robots with breasts. And once the AI ​​starts to issue tickets for the AI ​​that leads your Robotaxi, he can simply call his boyfriend I have the bank to send your money. No human is necessary, at any time, and the economy continues to hum.

But, like – I’m sure it’s good. Kiss the future and all that … right?
