John Moore/Getty ImagesAmerican law enforcement are now using AI-powered license plate recognition systems to identify “suspicious” patterns of movement by analyzing billions of license plate records. However, this new technology raises significant concerns about privacy and potential misuse.that by examining billions of license plate records, AI is now assisting American law enforcement in locating “suspicious” movement patterns.
The AI system flagged a vehicle, driven by David Zayas, as suspicious based on its travel patterns. Forbes reporter Thomas Brewster explains: “Searching through a database of 1.6 billion license plate records collected over the last two years from locations across New York State, the AI determined that Zayas’ car was on a journey typical of a drug trafficker.” The vehicle was subsequently pulled over, leading to the alleged discovery of drugs, a weapon, and a large sum of cash.
Zayas’ lawyer, Ben Gold, argued against the AI-gathered evidence, describing it as “dragnet surveillance.” He stated, “With no judicial oversight this type of system operates at the caprice of every officer with access to it.” Gold further argued that the system’s analysis of every car caught by a camera amounted to an “unprecedented search” and invades society’s reasonable expectation of privacy.
