School in Baltimore
I am surprised there wasn't a gun

Hopefully, the family is suing the crap out of the MD School system as well as the Mfgr. of the AI system. It sounds like LE did their job correctly and didn't overexert. The key will be how well they explained the situation to the kid after he was cleared and if they offered an apology for his trouble.
Perhaps, a tad embarrassing for the authority that tagged the pic and SWATed the kid???
or the cops did the right thing with the info provided ....none of us were there and all we have is a national enquire type headlinePerhaps, a tad embarrassing for the authority that tagged the pic and SWATed the kid???
Precisely. By "authority," I meant whoever made the determination to call LE to the scene, based on their interpretation of the pic.
I'm surprised there aren't protests marching up and down Americas streets declaring AI is racist.AI Security System Mistakes Bag of Doritos for Gun, Triggers Police Response to School in Baltimore | The Gateway Pundit | by Anthony Scott

The Uniform hangers were stupid, they had the "picture" they should have clearly seen it was a bag of chips.
But you know Uniform Hangers just love any excuse to threaten citizens with murder and death and of course if they are young even better.

As usual… AI is neither…
DARPA found out the hard way…
In the book, which will be released on February 28, Scharre recounts how the US Army was testing AI monitoring systems and decided to use the Marines to help build the algorithms that the security cameras would use.
They then attempted to put the AI system to the test and see if the squad of Marines could find new ways to avoid detection and evade the cameras.
To train the AI, the security cameras, which were developed by Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency’s (DARPA) Squad X program, required data in the form of a squad of Marines spending six days walking around in front of them. After six days spent training the algorithm, the Marines decided to put the AI security cameras to the test.
“If any Marines could get all the way in and touch this robot without being detected, they would win. I wanted to see, game on, what would happen,” DARPA deputy director Phil Root tells Scharre in the book.
Within a single day, the Marines had worked out the best way to sneak around an AI monitoring system and avoid detection by the cameras.
Root says: “Eight Marines — not a single one got detected.”
According to Scharre’s book, a pair of marines “somersaulted for 300 meters” to approach the sensor and “never got detected” by the camera. Meanwhile, two marines successfully evaded the camera by hiding in a cardboard box, a strategy they may have tried based on the video game series Metal Gear Solid. “You could hear them giggling the whole time,” Root says.
Meanwhile another smiling marine “field-stripped a fir tree and walked like a fir tree” toward the AI security camera and succeeded, too. Root tells Scharre that the marines were able to easily fool the cameras because “the AI system had been trained to detect humans walking, not humans somersaulting, hiding in a cardboard box, or disguised as a tree.
“So these simple tricks, which a human would have easily seen through, were sufficient to break the algorithm.”
