New York is facing unexpected challenges in using AI-powered cameras mounted on buses to monitor parking violations .
About 3,800 drivers received fines, of which almost 1,900 were found to be unfounded due to programming errors in the artificial intelligence system. As it turned out, the system incorrectly detected violations, which is why illegal fines were issued.
City officials quickly reimbursed victims and updated the software to avoid similar situations in the future. Despite this incident, the Met is continuing its plans to expand the use of cameras.
At present, such systems are installed on more than 2,000 buses, and by the end of 2024 their number will increase to 3,000.. New York's determination to implement the technology in public transportation remains unchanged, despite the mistake made.
