Next to a bus

Facial recognition in AI – everything is as terrifying as this hokey photo suggests (whose subject is * not * Dong Mingzhu).

Would not you know it? The error of the system of traffic officers in the port city of Ningbo was noticed – on a big screen "shameful" of the city that displays images of the unfortunate who had been caught red-handed jaywalking. Dong's company, for its part, said that there was no resentment and thanked the force for "their hard work".
