Court Bans Use of 'AI-Enhanced' Video Evidence Because That's Not How AI Works

A judge in Washington state has blocked video evidence that’s been “AI-enhanced” from being submitted in a triple murder trial. And that’s a good thing, given the fact that too many people seem to think applying an AI filter can give them access to secret visual data.

Wait, when did that become ok to do in The first place

They told the AI it was going to get locked up with the viruses because they had evidence it was generating CSAM.

“ENHANCE”

Imagine a prosecution or law enforcement bureau that has trained an AI from scratch on specific stimuli to enhance and clarify grainy images. Even if they all were totally on the up-and-up (they aren’t, ACAB), training a generative AI or similar on pictures of guns, drugs, masks, etc for years will lead to internal bias. And since AI makers pretend you can’t decipher the logic (I’ve literally seen compositional/generative AI that shows its work), they’ll never realize what it’s actually doing.

So then you get innocent CCTV footage this AI “clarifies” and pattern-matches every dark blurb into a gun. Black iPhone? Maybe a pistol. Black umbrella folded up at a weird angle? Clearly a rifle. And so on. I’m sure everyone else can think of far more frightening ideas like auto-completing a face based on previously searched ones or just plain-old institutional racism bias.

Every crime attributed to this one black guy in our training data.

We do not need AI pulling a George Lucas.

AI can make any blurry criminal look like George Lucas with the right LoRAs.

During Kyle Rittenhouse’s trial the defense attorney objected to using the pinch to zoom feature of an iPad because it (supposedly) used AI. This was upheld by the judge so the prosecution couldn’t zoom in on the video.

You’d think it would be obvious you can’t submit doctored evidence and expect it to be upheld in court.

If only it worked that way in practice eh.

We found these marijuanas in his pocket, they were already in evidence bags for us even.

The model that can separate the fact from fiction and falsehood will be worth far more than any model creating fiction and falsehood.

Think about how they reconstructed what the Egyptian Pharoahs looks like, or what a kidnap victim who was kidnapped at age 7 would look like at age 12. Yes, it can’t make something look exactly right, but it also isn’t just randomly guessing. Of course, it can be abused by people who want jurys to THINK the AI can perfectly reproduce stuff, but that is a problem with people’s knowledge of tech, not the tech itself.

Unfortunately, the people with no knowledge of tech will then proceed to judge if someone is innocent or guilty.

According to the evidence, the defendant clearly committed the crime with all 17 of his fingers. His lack of remorse is obvious by the fact that he’s clearly smiling wider than his own face.

General_Effort ,

Used to be that people called it the “CSI Effect” and blamed it on television.

Funny thing. While people worry about unjust convictions, the “AI-enhanced” video was actually offered as evidence by the defense.

But I thought AI was just magic, and could do anything…
