"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Jason Killinger is now suing the city of Reno, Nevada, after he was misidentified by AI and wrongfully arrested at the Peppermill casino.

Back in September 2023, long-haul truck driver Jason Killinger was detained and arrested by police in Nevada after he had been gambling at the Peppermill Casino. Killinger had been flagged by the venue’s AI facial recognition software, with its “100% match” claiming that he had been previously banned for sleeping at the premises.

Bodycam footage of the arrest showed Killinger protesting his innocence after he was misidentified as Michael Ellis. He eventually sued Reno Police Officer R. Jager and the casino, with court filings revealing he had spent 11 hours in custody, with four hours being spent in handcuffs.

The Peppermill Casino settled a claim with the truck driver, but a case against Officer Jager has been ongoing. Now, Killinger is also suing the city of Reno over it.

When you fail to be a firefighter, you either decide to contribute to society and drive a big cool truck anyway and get to use the horn WHENEVER YOU WANT, or you become a cop.

Not that all truck drivers fail to be firefighters.
